Vivek Ramaswamy - EXPOSES Deep State, BlackRock, Big Pharma, Central Bank Digital Currency

The Shawn Ryan Show interview with Vivek
I am nearly halfway through. This guy is either real and will be stopped before he sees DC: or too good to be true.
He goes in depth like no other. It is porn for my ears. I hope he is real.

He is soo late to the game.

He’s a private equity pharma bro. I believe nothing that comes out of his mouth.

Dude is a performance artist who is in on the game.

The debate introduced Ramaswamy to voters as a confident, charismatic, brash, and meme-able entrepreneur who thrives on conflict and won't back down. But seven people who worked with Ramaswamy at Roivant Sciences and Strive Asset Management, two companies he founded, told Insider that the real Vivek's self-assuredness comes with an entitled edge in private.
Behind closed doors, some of these former employees said he can be a neurotic, mercurial, and paranoid leader. He takes pains on the campaign trail to come across as salt of the earth. But a person who worked closely with Ramaswamy said, "He thinks people are put on this earth to serve him."
Ramaswamy has cast himself as the child of penniless immigrants who worked hard and scrapped harder to make it in business.
But while his parents may have come from humble beginnings, Ramaswamy was raised in affluence. His father worked as an engineer and patent attorney at General Electric, and his mother worked as a psychiatrist in private practice.
Ramaswamy was the valedictorian of his prestigious private boys' school. In 2011, he received a fellowship from a foundation started by George Soros' brother to attend Yale Law School, a move he later defended in the conservative media because he "didn't have the money."
But he was also working at a hedge fund at the same time, earning nearly $500,000 the year he applied for the fellowship and $2.2 million the next year, his tax returns show.
Some aspects of his management style are quirky: he'd order Taco Bell for the office on his birthday, according to former employees. But he's also been known to demand white-glove service from staffers, these people said, insisting that they follow an often bizarre laundry-list of rules and procedures to suit his every need.

I really wish some of you would get your facts straight.
NO he hasn't
Growing up his father went to night classes while working during the day to pay for school.
Did it pay off? Yep.
Paul Soros isn't George, nor was George influencing elections back in 2010. He wasn't even rolling off tongues yet.
Again, he didn't say that. He has said that even with a couple hundred thousand in the bank he took that 50K in a heartbeat and any of us would be stupid not to do the same in the similar position. Furthermore when he applied for the scholarship in 2010, he hadn't received his payout because those come at the end of the year for hedge funds.
Not when he applied and the only reason you know ANY of that is because he voluntarily released 20 years of his tax returns. He is only 37.
If all of this is coming from the same source, I wouldn't trust that source any further. He made some enemies from talking out against China, ESG and Climate change agenda recently. Your "seven people" are about as honest as Biden.

The stuff about Blackrock being able to control companies and push ESG goals is verifiable bullshite. He gives Apple and Home Depot as examples but Blackrock's funds own less than 7% of each.
Plus both Blackrock and Vanguard are providing investors in their funds the opportunity to vote by proxy so the voting power of Blackrock and Vanguard will shrink to really tiny levels in the future.
This stuff sounds good to people who are experienced in the markets but it's in actuality bullshite.

When you have to lie to protect a candidate, well, then you failed to protect the candidate
Paul made his fortune by working for George. George has been rolling off tongues since his days of shorting currencies. Paul and his wife also sat on The League of Nations Committee long before Vivek applied for that money
* 1992 Black Wednesday UK currency crisis, orchestrated by Soros
* Open Society Founded by Soros April 1993
* In 1999, economist Paul Krugman was critical of Soros of being the type of investor who actually does his best to trigger crisis for fun and profit
* The Rose Revolution in the country of Georgia from 3 to 23 November 2003 was chiefly funded by Soros organizations
* According to OpenSecrets, during the 2003–2004 election cycle, Soros donated $23,581,000, his first real venture into American politics
* French Supreme Court confirmed a Soros conviction on June 14, 2006 for insider trading

It's not that simple, and Vivek did add some more detail about these relationships. If you look at institutional and mutual fund owners of Apple, for example, the big three (plus Berkshire) own way more than 7%. Vivek discusses (either with Ryan or elsewhere) how some things like CALPERS exerts influence on them, and they in turn exert influence on companies. I'll have to go get my notes on this appearance and post them again.

Yeah guys, Blackrock and Vanguard are like totally our friends guys. Nevermind that OMG expose. Vivek is full of crap. Blackrock and Vanguard have our backs!
Posted on 9/18/23 at 1:23 am to POTUS2024
Vivek does mention CALPERS in this interview.
I posted a thread on this appearance a while ago with a bunch of notes if anyone wants to look it up. It's quite a bit of material so I won't repost it here. Don't want to hijack.
Be very careful with people like this. Pay attention to his stance on constitutional amendments as an example. He opens the show talking about the elites and their backroom deals, cutting out the People. Sounds really good.
But the mask slips when he talks about constitutional amendments. He favors the approach whereby Congress initiates everything. The other method is a convention of states. He says, "the other method is constitutional, and I celebrate the spirit of people to take this on...be prepared for what comes out."
Huge red flag, IMO. At his core, he's a big brain, elitist Ivy League guy that looks down on the People. Our country has had enough from these types. Every policy failure since WWII can be pinned on this group.
At their core, this group believes the nation and the People are here for them, not the other way around.
It's time to stop falling for this act.
Also, pay attention to Strive and how he's mounted a systematic anti-woke campaign: books, appearances, sucking up to Trump, starting companies, now a campaign which amounts to hundreds of millions in free advertising. This is all profit for him. If Trump wins and holds true to form, he will have Vivek in his administration because Trump can't resist people that suck up to him. Vivek will angle and manipulate Trump to policies that help Strive and similar ventures, and at some point he'll depart the administration, slide back into Strive (or similar) and....profit. This is a business venture for him - it's not a legitimate philosophical or patriotic position.
So many red flags with this guy.

What you call red flags I call a breath of fresh air. Don't be so hard hearted that you can't recognize what is actually good. He doesn't sound like other politicians because he isn't one at his core. His principles are sound, but yep, it'll take some faith to actually believe he will do as he says. You know, kinda like all people running for president.

He's a collection of red flags and his strategy is very transparent, IMO. The mask slips if you just keep your eyes open. Dude trusts Congress more than he trusts the People.

Sounds like he is a real live version of the TV character Michael Prince of the show Billions. While he wants to be loved by everybody he’s a narcissist who thinks he’s the one and only one that is put on this earth to do the greatest good.

Didn't listen....how many times did he say "I'm the only one....blah, blah, blah."?
