Ramaswamy has faced significant blowback from a post he wrote about the virtues of hiring high-skilled immigrants over Americans.

Vivek Ramaswamy thinks that tech companies are choosing foreign-born workers over American ones because our culture is too chill, too mediocre, and doesn’t uplift dorks like him enough.

The duo will need to garner support from hundreds of members of Congress for any of their suggested spending cuts as co-chairs of the non-governmental Department of Government Efficiency, to become law.

House Speaker Mike Johnson might be in the DOGE house. Billionaire entrepreneurs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on Wednesday turned against House GOP leadership, raging about a stopgap measure to avert a government shutdown and actively encouraging rank-and-file Republicans to kill it.

Republicans warn the business leaders' lack of government experience could lead to clashes over spending decisions.

Democrats are largely skeptical of Elon Musk's push to ax wasteful government spending. But some in the party aren't fully dismissing the DOGE goals.

Indian Americans are the most represented minority in the Trump administration, reflecting a faction of the community's shifting alignment with Trump's values on economic and social issues.

Tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy slammed the stopgap spending deal, urging Congressional members to vote against the massive bill if they are “serious about government efficiency.”

It’s unclear whether Trump and Johnson will support a new deal, and whether Democrats, including Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, will go along with the plan — all in time to avoid a shutdown less than a week before Christmas.

House Democrats are balking at the latest iteration of a spending plan that was released on Thursday by Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.

Some House Republicans are privately fuming at the 11th-hour involvement of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy in government funding talks.

Rep. Victoria Spartz said she will forgo committee assignments and GOP conference obligations in favor of focusing on DOGE.
