Entrepreneur is now expected to launch a gubernatorial campaign in his home state of Ohio
Summary
Vivek Ramaswamy has been removed as co-chair of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) after criticizing U.S. work culture as “mediocre” in a controversial social media post.
The comment reportedly angered allies and led Elon Musk, his DOGE co-chair, to push him out.
Ramaswamy, accused of minimal contributions, plans to run for Ohio governor.
DOGE, an initiative aimed at slashing federal spending, faces legal challenges over transparency and its undefined role within government.
Musk remains its sole leader as lawsuits continue.
I'm sure that's part of it. Also, what Vivek said was quite a lot, so fuck him. I'm sure Elon will still push hard for indentured servants to take the jobs of citizens, though.
Yeah but see, it's trump 101... Do something bad, fire someone else for doing it... When americans realize their jobs are being lost to low cost H1B workers... Pretend you were against it all along, and it was all the fall guys fault.
You know I always watched cheesy spy movies and the like as a kid... where it's always like... Umm... after watching the supervillain just sacrifice minions like it's nothing over and over again... how the hell do they seem to keep recruiting them... and why aren't the existing ones running for their lives.
Vivek got it wrong. It is not Americas work culture that is mediocre. It's the management, both in business and politics, and calling it "mediocre" is quite optimistic...
Same time Elon did the old Sieg Heil in front of a live, televised audience at the inauguration. Golly, I wonder if these events are related...what the actual fuck
I feel like this is a circus of Gollums, and I cannot possibly predict who to internally root for or against, in terms of my hopes aligning with minimizing damage.
