President Trump Considers Michael Murray for DOJ Antitrust Leadership
President Trump is contemplating the nomination of Michael Murray to lead antitrust enforcement at the U.S. Justice Department. Murray, who previously served as a deputy assistant attorney general for antitrust during the first Trump administration, is currently a partner at Paul Hastings LLC. His potential nomination comes amid a personnel shortage in the DOJ's antitrust division, following the departure of many senior staff. The timing of Murray's nomination is contingent on the White House officially nominating a new attorney general, as Todd Blanche is currently acting head of the DOJ.
