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.
Has anyone asked her why she changed her name? I’ve heard or read articles suggesting that it was done to sound more white from progressive circles… I don’t really care if someone changes their name but it is interesting if they are doing it because their own constituents would see them as “other” had they not done it.
Ted Cruz is another example I think.
And oh yea don’t we have our first trans representative in congress now? I can’t remember what state but I remember Margerine Green Potato trying to pass a bill about bathrooms in the capitol recently?
I looked it up because no one else bothered to. It’s her childhood nickname and it means “little one” in Punjabi.
People here are just assuming it was about fooling people about her ethnicity.
And that has nothing to do with the fact that Nikki sounds more “American”
Do you really think her parents called her a Punjabi name in childhood to make her more American just because it sounds like a Western name?
Do you think if they had chosen a more Hindi or Indian sounding nickname she would call herself that?
