They work in tandem.

The FTC shares jurisdiction over federal civil antitrust enforcement with the Department of Justice Antitrust Division. In some consumer protection matters, the FTC appears with, or supports, the U.S. Department of Justice.

Biden's FTC appointments are redefining FTC perspective on anti-trust, and DOJ is following suit.
