Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Christine Wilson said Tuesday that she was quitting the agency over 'continuing lawlessness' under the leadership of President Biden's appointed chair, Lina Khan.

Ms. Wilson, who was appointed by former President Trump, wrote in an opinion article for the Wall Street Journal that she had concerns about due process, the rule of law, and the ethics of Ms. Khan.

“Although serving as an FTC commissioner has been the highest honor of my professional career, I must follow my own advice and resign in the face of continuing lawlessness,” Ms. Wilson wrote. “Consider this my noisy exit.” Meta petitioned the FTC for Ms. Khan to recuse herself from the in-house case and the FTC shot down Meta’s request earlier this month.
