Vivek Ramaswamy looks likely to run for political office, leaving Elon Musk the lone head of the Department of Governmental Efficiency.

This announcement comes after several news outlets published reports late last week indicating Ramaswamy would leave his role. Ramaswamy was forced out after claiming American work culture “venerated mediocrity over excellence” in a social media post last month during the debate on the H-1B skilled workers visa among Republicans,

Sources familiar with Ramaswamy's plans told The Washington Post last week that he was interested in the position after Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine chose Lt. Gov. Jon Husted to fill Vice President JD Vance's vacated Senate seat.
