    Vivek Ramaswamy to run for Ohio Governor after Trump administration snub – AsAmNews

    Published on

    Vivek Ramaswamy will not be joining the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but he will be running for Ohio Governor, Axios reports.

    According to POLITICO, Ramaswamy was effectively kicked out of DOGE by Elon Musk who will now be the sole leader of the project. One source told POLITICO outlet that Musk did not think it would be possible for Ramaswamy to participate while running for governor. Another source said other people associated DOGE did not approve of Ramaswamy’s H1-B visa comments.

    Anna Kelly, a Trump transition spokesperson, also told NBC News that Ramaswamy’s gubernatorial aspirations played a role in his departure.

    “He intends to run for elected office soon, which requires him to remain outside of DOGE based on the structure that we announced today,” Kelly said. “We thank him immensely for his contributions over the last 2 months and expect him to play a vital role in making America great again!”

    A source told NBC News that Ramaswamy will announce his campaign for governor next week.
