Yeah. This irks me even more because the US Gov:

A. Has laws that could have prevented IBM from buying RedHat.

B. Knows it relies on RedHat for securing critical systems.

C. Didn't do shit about the purchase.

Ideally, each government would look out for the public's interest, in these things. But in this case, it failed to even look out for it's own interests (which would have aligned, in this case).

US Government: “Anti-trust? Pfft, keep that ~~bribery~~ lobbying train coming and we will absolutely trust you.”

The Public: That’s not what “trust” means… oh…

You are assuming the various departments talk. It is kind of a love hate relationship.
