Surprise Move from Trump-Supported Businessman
American businessman and politician Vivek Ramaswamy has decided to resign from the Department of State Efficiency (DOGE) to enter the race for governor of Ohio. In a statement made on the social media platform X, Ramaswamy expressed his belief that DOGE would succeed under Elon Musk's leadership.
This development, which has resonated on the American political scene, indicates that Ramaswamy, one of the founding figures of DOGE, is pursuing a new political goal. Ramaswamy's decision, backed by U.S. President Donald Trump, has received extensive coverage in the national media.
It reveals that there is already activity for the seat of current Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, whose term will end in 2027. Ramaswamy, known for his criticisms of the tech world, is seen as starting a new phase in his political career with this move.
Founded in the early days of the Trump administration, DOGE has been the target of criticism due to concerns about transparency. Following the establishment of the department, Public Citizen and various civil society organizations initiated legal proceedings on the grounds that the Federal Advisory Committee Act was violated.
After Ramaswamy's departure from DOGE, Elon Musk emphasized that the department's work would continue without interruption and that necessary regulations would still be implemented. Ramaswamy's new political goal, noted for his sharp criticisms of American culture, is causing discussions in various circles.
