Speaking at a gala hosted at Trump바카라s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Thursday, Indian-origin entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy declared their intent to take a 바카라chainsaw바카라 to inefficiency in Washington.
Ramaswamy, a former Republican presidential candidate who withdrew to support Trump promised a radical restructuring of federal agencies, slashing regulations, and cutting wasteful spending through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Ramaswamy asserted their commitment to streamlining operations and holding the federal government accountable for its size and scope, indicating possible job cuts.
바카라Elon Musk and I are in a position to start the mass deportations of millions of unelected federal bureaucrats out of the D.C. bureaucracy. And I don't know if you've got to know Elon yet, but he doesn't bring a chisel, he brings a chainsaw, and we're going to be taking it to that bureaucracy,바카라 a report by India Today quoted Ramaswamy.
The chainsaw metaphor, often associated with bold economic reforms, is likely a nod to Argentine President Javier Milei, who campaigned wielding a chainsaw to dismantle his country바카라s bloated bureaucracy.
Ramaswamy바카라s emphasis on direct action and efficiency is central to the mission of DOGE, which aims to 바카라slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies,바카라 according to Trump바카라s announcement.
Designed to 바카라shave the size바카라 of the government
Despite operating outside of the official government structure, DOGE is set to have a significant influence on US policy, thanks to the ambitious plans of its co-leaders. The initiative has been described as a 바카라massive reorganization바카라 designed to 바카라shave the size of government바카라 and ensure that federal agencies operate with the efficiency of private corporations. The duo, who share a history of challenging conventional approaches to business and technology, are determined to bring that same mindset to Washington.
Ramaswamy stressed the importance of transparency, stating that the pair would keep the American public informed through weekly 바카라Dogecasts바카라 streamed live on X, the social media platform owned by Musk.
바카라Our goal is to shave the size of government and to be as transparent as possible with the public. We are assembling the brightest minds in the country. This is the equivalent of a modern Manhattan Project바카라 India Today quoted Ramaswamy.
The initiative is also appealing to high-performing individuals, with DOGE seeking 바카라super high-IQ, small-government revolutionaries바카라 willing to dedicate more than 80 hours per week to cost-cutting and restructuring.
Applicants are asked to message DOGE directly on X, with Elon Musk and Ramaswamy personally reviewing the top candidates.
Critiques fear DOGE바카라s approach
While the initiative has drawn enthusiastic support from many conservatives, critics warn that DOGE's aggressive approach could destabilize essential government functions, especially in areas such as national security, public health, and law enforcement. However, Ramaswamy dismissed these concerns, arguing that the cuts were necessary for innovation and fiscal responsibility.
바카라We바카라ve been taught to believe that we바카라re a nation in decline, but last week proved otherwise,바카라 he said, referring to the momentum of his campaign and Trump's re-election. 바카라DOGE's job is to create a government of a size and scope that our Founders would be proud of.바카라
