Elon Musk wanted Vivek Ramaswamy out of DOGE due H-1B visa ‘differences’; Tesla CEO’s clout surges in Trump 2.0: Report
Live MintIndian-origin Republican leader Vivek Ramaswamy pulled out of the Department of Government Efficiency – envisaged by US president Donald Trump to trim the administration – due to differences with Elon Musk over H-1B visas, a report has suggested, indicating the growing clout of the Tesla CEO in the new US dispensation. Hours after Donald Trump's inauguration as the 47th US President, Ramaswamy announced he would not co-head DOGE with Elon Musk – both handpicked by the US President. Elon Musk wanted Ramaswamy – expected to run for the Ohio governor's post next – 'out' of DOGE over the 39-year-old entrepreneur's recent remarks on X regarding H-1B visas, a report in the Politico said. Musk had made it clear that he wanted Ramaswamy out of DOGE, and the departure is seen as a testament to Musk's influence in the incoming administration, the Politico reported Ramaswamy "just burned through the bridges and he finally burned Elon," said a Republican strategist close to Trump advisers.
