Entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has announced his departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a Trump-era initiative, possibly to run for governor of Ohio.

Ramaswamy's Role in DOGE

Vivek Ramaswamy was instrumental in establishing DOGE alongside Elon Musk. DOGE was created to streamline federal spending through budget cuts and staffing reductions. Anna Kelly, a spokesperson for DOGE, confirmed his departure, highlighting his pivotal contribution to shaping the organization's vision.

Reasons for Departure and Future Plans

With Ohio Governor Mike DeWine's term ending in January 2027, Ramaswamy sees an opportunity to run for the position. Recently, he has hinted at his interest through social media posts. DOGE's structural rules require him to step back if he intends to pursue an elected office.

Controversies and Challenges

Ramaswamy's exit coincides with controversies over his criticisms of American corporate hiring practices. In December, he faced backlash after comments on X accusing U.S. companies of favoring foreign workers. Reports also suggest Elon Musk pushed for his removal due to strained relationships with key political figures. DOGE under Musk's solo leadership faces criticism for lacking transparency and accountability, as highlighted by consumer advocacy groups.

Vivek Ramaswamy's departure from DOGE marks a potential shift towards a gubernatorial run in Ohio. His outspoken views on corporate culture and political frictions remain significant aspects of his public persona.
