Some members of President Trump’s Department of Justice privately expressed disappointment on Thursday following a three-judge hearing on its appeal of AT&T’s $85 billion acquisition of Time Warner, sources told The Post.

Specifically, the DC Circuit Court of Appeals judges on Thursday did not ask about AT&T’s actions since its deal with Time Warner closed in June, sources said.

The judges failed to raise the fact that AT&T in November blacked out its HBO service from Dish, raised prices for DirecTV Now, and shut down site and production company Super Deluxe.

The DOJ believes each of those actions show AT&T is already not living up to the pledges it made in US District Court to get its deal approved over the DOJ’s objections, a source with direct knowledge of the DOJ’s thinking said.

In addition, the Court of Appeals did not ask about how the parties felt about the Federal Communications Commission in August saying it believed Judge Richard Leon made a mistake when approving the AT&T merger.

The DOJ could not raise any of these points on its own since they were not made in its DC Circuit Court of Appeals filings — unless the judges raised it first, sources said.

“The question is if the judges were going to give them an opening,” the source said.

But the Court of Appeals, following the traditional route of only focusing on filed briefs, left the door shut.

This was the one and only hearing in the appeal, and the judges are expected to render a final judgment by February.

An AT&T spokeswoman said, “We appreciate the court’s attention to the arguments of counsel and look forward to receiving its decision.”

AT&T’s acquisition of Time Warner includes HBO, CNN, TBS, TNT and the Cartoon Network.

“The Department of Justice appreciates the court’s careful consideration of this important case, and will await the court’s decision,” a DOJ spokesman told The Post.
