Republican candidate in the US/2024 Presidential election

Vivek Ganapathy Ramaswamy is a multi-millionaire American businessman, WEF Young Global leader and 2024 US presidential candidate.

“I have a dream that the people we elect to run the government will be the ones who actually run the government.”
Vivek Ramaswamy [1]

Background

Vivek Ramaswamy was a Republican candidate in the US/2024 Presidential election[2]. American entrepreneur, author, and conservative political activist, bills himself as an anti-woke populist. He is the third candidate to announce for the Republican nomination for president, notably young and outspoken compared with other rivals to Trump. Ramaswamy released his list of potential nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court, and it is superb particularly in excluding Deep State and pro-federal prosecution candidates. He cancelled his campaign, on January 15, 2024, due to poor results, in the Iowa primary vote. He immediately threw his support behind President Trump and encouraged the two remaining Republican candidates, Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, to do the same.

He is a "multi-millionaire biotech entrepreneur and self-described intellectual godfather of the anti-woke movement,"[3] and has been promoted by the Fox News Channel. Ramaswamy authored Woke, Inc. (2021)[4] and Nation of Victims (2022), which criticized the Leftist mindset. He delivered a lecture on his book Woke, Inc. and answered questions from members, at the Council on Foreign Relations, Oct 6, 2021, as a guest speaker, according to AI search, but link is broken on CFR site.

Education

In 2011, the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans awarded Ramaswamy a post-graduate fellowship.

Controversy erupted over Ramaswamy's alleged payoff of a Wikipedia editor to remove Soros connection from his Wikipedia page.[5] In 2013, he received a Juris Doctor from Yale Law School.[6] At that time, Ramaswamy was already wealthy from his involvement in the finance, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries; he said in 2023 that he had a net fortune of around $15 million before graduating from law school. Forbes lists current net fortune at roughly $600 million.

Stance on 9/11

GOP 2024 candidates VP Pence exchanged barbs regarding Ramaswamy's stance on 9/11, attacking his recent interview with Blaze.[7][8] On X (formerly Twitter) Ramaswamy gave a lengthy statement on his key points regarding 9/11:[9]

  • Rejects "baseless theories" about controlled demolitions at buildings around the World Trade Center
  • al-Qaeda’s attack was undertaken with support from Saudi intelligence officials
  • There is no credible evidence that 9/11 was an 'inside job'

Analysis of Ramaswamy 9/11 tactic

Ramaswamy provides a lengthy, drawn out, explanation on X[10] to prove his point that "al-Qaeda’s attack was undertaken with support from Saudi intelligence officials", in order to distract from "controlled demolitions at buildings around the World Trade Center" and "credible evidence that 9/11 was an 'inside job'". Tactic appears similar to Tulsi Gabbard's 2020 campaign position on 9/11[11], which is different from the official narrative, but still the wrong narrative, while corporate media and political opponents attack and ridicule, to keep the public confused. Ramaswamy weaves what appears to be a 9/11 strawman, seemed designed as a splashy publicity stunt. What's significant is he takes the position that the "public distrusts government to tell us the truth about 9/11", then justifies it with wrong 9/11 narrative - emphasizing what the public distrusts is the fact that Saudi intelligence is behind flying planes into the buildings as their cause for collapse, instead of the actual - an inside job and controlled demolitions. Saudi intelligence seems part of narrative, but not the most important part that the public actually focuses on. Ramaswamy pretends to speak for the public and justifies why they distrust government focusing all attention on a lesser cause. President Trump, Tulsi Gabbard, and Ramaswamy all have 9/11 narratives which are different from the official narrative, but still the wrong ones. Each blames Saudi involvement. Trump's appointees blocked compensation for 9/11 victim's families[12], and Tulsi Gabbard failed to show up for Congressional compensation vote after promising to support it. Demanded compensation for 9/11 victims from Saudi Arabia, to embarrass President Trump, but didn't bother showing up to vote for a bill to actually compensate 9/11 Victims. Tulsi Gabbard is one of the just NINE Democrats in the House to miss the vote on HR 1327 “Never Forget the Heroes” Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act.[13][14]

2024 Campaign Promises

Vivek has promised to rescind EO 11246, which was issued by leftist-Democrat President LBJ and which coined the phrase "affirmative action." Vivek blames Republican presidents for never rescinding it. Vivek said about the partisan Democrat arrest of President Trump, "It is un-American for the ruling party to use police power to arrest its political rivals...This will mark a dark moment in American history and will undermine public trust in our electoral system itself."[15] Ramaswamy gave rival candidates Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis until 9am on March 21st to likewise condemn this abuse of county prosecutorial power by Democrats. As of the afternoon of March 20, Haley and DeSantis had failed to condemn this abuse.[16]

Vetting Vivek Ramaswamy

Former pharma exec and newfound anti-ESG crusader has substantial ties to China, the Covid industrial complex, Pfizer, Soros inc, and a track record of business calamities. Article presents candidate's history of contradictions.[17]

Unveils Plans To Eradicate FBI, Department Of Education, Nuclear Regulatory Commission

Presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy detailed his vision for the administrative state at a New Hampshire town hall on July 20, 2023[18] Throughout Ramaswamy's campaign, he wrongly identified the "Deep State" as the Federal Employees Union, insisting firing them en masse after winning election, the deep state would finally be defeated. Ramaswamy never mentioned the genuine deep state that rules America, by name, as the Council on Foreign Relations, or reveals how they are able to fill each president's administration, with their own members, for all key positions, regardless of party, elected to the White House. Ramaswamy acknowledged that Trump picked several deep state operatives, from the Federal Employees Union, for his presidency, citing Nikki Haley who spoke at the Council on Foreign Relations[19] and National Security Advisor, John Bolton, a former CFR member, and they combined to ruin Trump's MAGA campaign promises, however he never identified that CFR policies and members, were the cause of blocking Trump's populist agenda, keeping voters in the dark, by claiming the fault lies with inability to fire unionized Federal employees.[20] Voter at Iowa campaign town hall asks Ramaswamy how he'll be different at tackling the deep state, when Trump failed? Ramaswamy gives the incorrect answer, that constitutionally, as president, he can fire thousands of union workers and that will defeat the deep state, without ever revealing the genuine deep state controlling the elected government.[21]

Fact Checking Campaign Claims

Fact-Check: Did the Soros Family Help Vivek Ramaswamy Go to Law School? Ramaswamy, who has surged to third place in the Real Clear Politics average of polls (just ahead of former Vice President Mike Pence), has found himself the target of a number of “gotcha!” accusations of late, including that he is:

  • An agent of the World Economic Forum
  • Connected to George Soros
  • Bought by the Soros family
  • Pro-COVID masking

Ramaswamy recorded a video refuting each of these claims.[22] The video however appears to dispute the wrong claims, diverting attention to lesser evils. He's been falsely claimed as an "agent of the WEF" and member of the World Economic Forum, neither of which are true. However, he was inducted as a Young Global Leader of the WEF, Class of 2021. In 2021, Ramaswamy was silent and didn't object to his WEF YGL listing. It wasn't until he announced his candidacy for president in 2023, and opposition began appearing, that he demanded his name be removed from the WEF site and threatened to sue to have it removed.[23] His second point - directly connected to George Soros, appears untrue. His post graduate scholarship to Yale law school was not paid for by George Soros and was paid instead by a foundation controlled by Soros' elder brother, Paul Soros. However, on Aug 15, 2021, Ramaswamy praised George Soros on Twitter, "Well said, George Soros: 'I consider Mr. Xi the most dangerous enemy of open societies in the world.'"[24] Then on July 19, 2023, unable to shake his claimed connection to George Soros, he changed tactics and claimed Trump took a $160-million loan from George Soros to build his real estate empire, so why should it be wrong for him to take money too? The video 'Big Pharma Vivek Ramaswamy: Pfizer Deal, Soros & More. The New MAGA Darling?' explains his various flipflops and contradictions.[25] Therefore, his claim that he has no connection to George Soros, isn't entirely true. The claim "Pro-COVID masking" was refuted by an article in 'Western Journal'.[26] In 2020, Ramaswamy criticized conservatives for not wearing masks, because at the time Dr. Fauci was saying they weren't necessary and would prove ineffective. Ramaswamy took credit for contradicting Dr. Fauci by claiming they were effective in slowing the spread of the COVID-19 virus, which later proved false. Ramaswamy had a far worse connection to COVID-19 mRNA vaccine technology, holding patents for nano-vaccines, Ramaswamy's former company Genevant Sciences, a portfolion company of Roivant Sciences, is suing Pfizer and Moderna, claiming patent infringement on enabling delivery on the mRNA spike proteins to cells, that Ramaswamy's company claims to have invented. Ramaswamy was founder and CEO of Roivant from 2014-2021. He is not personally involved in the lawsuit.[27]. In 2021, Ramaswamy's company sought to nationalize private health records to create a database of COVID-19 status, without patient consent, to cash in and profit on the C-19 Pandemic. [28]

“Fielding a series of conspiratorial rapid-fire questions from Stein, Ramaswamy declared of the 1969 Apollo moon landing, 'I have no evidence to suggest it was fake, so I’m gonna say it was real.'”
Vivek Ramaswamy [29]
