Law Vivek to depart DOGE

I wonder how true this is, him and Elon not getting along wouldnt shock. Vivek has dissapeared for a while too.
 
Pretty impressive. Trump isn't even in office yet and the imaginary department of government efficiency is already falling apart. That's not very efficient.

People close to Musk have privately undercut Ramaswamy for weeks, frustrated with his lack of participation in the heavy lifting, according to sources familiar with the internal dynamics. There has been friction between the incoming rank and file DOGE staff and Ramaswamy, the sources said, and Ramaswamy has been subtly encouraged to exit.

"Vivek has worn out his welcome," one person close to Trump said...

Ramaswamy intends to announce a campaign for Ohio governor as soon as the end of January, multiple sources confirmed to CBS News.
Not a good look for Vivek at least at this juncture, but maybe it will pan out.
However its far worse for "DOGE" and a very dumb move if Musk pressured him out; it will never be accepted if it looks just like Musks personal project, Vivek was a kind of cover that gave it more credibility with two at the helm, now that is gone the 'department' looks just like what it was - a Musk pet project. That lowers its legitimacy much less than it had even before.
 
In horror movies, it’s the black guy who goes first. In trump cabinet, any poc will do.
