I've seen the DOJ lose every antitrust case its filed recently. All they're doing is at worst generating bad PR for large companies and airing their dirty laundry.

This has always been true. Antitrust failed hard until the Sherman Antitrust Act was passed. Courts can’t just do things without the law backing them up
