Trump's choice to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency is expected to announce a gubernatorial campaign after the new administration begins.

Summary

Vivek Ramaswamy, co-leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under Trump, is expected to step down to launch a campaign for Ohio governor.

Sources report friction between Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, and incoming DOGE staff, with Musk’s team criticizing his lack of participation and subtly encouraging his exit.

“Vivek has worn out his welcome,” one Trump associate said.

DOGE, a task force to streamline federal bureaucracy, is not a formal agency.

    The man just did a Nazi salute while standing behind a podium with the Presidential seal on it at the Inauguration. All bets are off if you are thinking of government as it existed before this moment.

    He has enough money to do what he wants. And there are enough idiots around him that believe his bullshit and applaud.
