VIDEO: ‘Shut It Down’: Vivek Ramaswamy Talks To Tucker About ‘Mega Reorganization’ Of Federal Bureaucracy

Former 2024 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke to political commentator and Daily Caller Co-Founder Tucker Carlson about the “mega reorganization” of federal bureaucracy in an interview released Friday.

President-elect Donald Trump swept all seven battleground states, won the popular vote and achieved a Republican majority in the Senate. Ramaswamy detailed how the incoming administration could eliminate and separate federal agencies from Washington, D.C. to make systemic change.

“I think many of those agencies should not exist. Many of them that do continue to exist absolutely should be moved to other parts of the country,” he told Carlson.

Ramaswamy said the Office of the Surgeon General and the U.S. Department of Agriculture should not be in D.C. He also named the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services among those in need of major reforms.

“I think you’re wrongfully insulated in Washington, D.C.,” Ramaswamy said before mentioning that the U.S. Department of Education should be eliminated entirely.

“I wouldn’t want to start this process of just saying, okay, let’s move them out of Washington, D.C., as some sort of polite, genteel way of avoiding and sidestepping the thing that we actually need to do, which is bring a jackhammer and a chainsaw to the whole thing,” he added.

“But even those that do continue to exist, you would actually have a lot more accountability to the people and probably even some kind of stimulus, if you will, in parts of the country that wouldn’t mind a little bit of that growth getting out of D.C. and come into their own backyard,” Ramaswamy said.

Ramaswamy said many federal employees would quit on their own if they were required to go into the office to work every day. He suggested Trump fire approximately 75% of federal employees immediately to prevent his administration from easing into bureaucracy on day one. 

“Department of Education is a good example,” Ramaswamy told Carlson. “Shut it down. Send the money back. Workforce training can move to the Department of Labor and loan collections can move to Treasury.”

“It’s just a mass opportunity for a mega reorganization and thereby downsizing of this bureaucracy. And it’s a one-way ratchet because it’s not like if another president comes back, they can write that back into existence by fiat. They’d actually have to go through Congress to do it,” he said.

Ramaswamy revealed he would like to be involved in reshaping the federal government in Trump’s incoming administration.

“Would you be involved in this effort?” Carlson asked.

“I’d like to be, yeah, absolutely. I’ve given it a lot of thought. It was the centerpiece of my presidential campaign. I spent a year and a half of my life. It was probably the most. I mean, I took a lot of positions on a lot of things, but this is probably the single most useful and certainly personally important to me, part of the policy aspect of my campaign last year,” Ramaswamy responded. “And yes, I have been involved, let’s just say, in recent months. So, this is laying out what the blueprint should look like.”

Save our Republic—Shut Down the Government on March 8th, 2024

The weak do nothing Congressional Republican and Democrat socialists and Communists are still unable to script a balanced budget that eliminates the massive fraud waste and abuse of U.S. taxpayers hard earned money.

Currently the congress have not been able to agree on legislation to fund the departments of Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, Energy, Transportation and Housing and Urban Affairs. Only the Veterans Affairs and military construction, all of which have legitimate constitutional standing.

But with that said.

The Communists and Socialists in Congress have no problem printing more money in the Treasury Department and borrowing more money from Communist China to fund the traitorous impeached Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’s salary.

The do nothing weak Republican led Congress have no problem funding the woke led Pentagon which allows woke indoctrinated military members to slaughter their pre-born children.

The Pentagon uses our tax dollars to reimburse the travel costs allowing these woke military members to kill these pre-born future Americans who are denied their constitutional protections of life and liberty.

The Marxist Biden administration’s climate agenda designed to dismantle our free markets and capitalist entrepreneurial enterprises is still funded driving inflation to its highest levels in 50 years.

The minority group of conservative congressional patriots like Matt Gaetz (R-FL) continue to fight for the fiscal economic sanity of our Republic which could result in a much needed partial government shutdown after March 1 2024 to stop this Marxist agenda.

Globalist Socialist Republican In Name Only (RINO) and non functioning geriatric GOP Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (KY) has no problem funding billions of unaccounted for tax payer money to the corrupt Ukraine.

But then he screams to his House GOP colleagues on February 26th 2024 that shutting down the government due to fiscal restraints put in place by conservatives is not an option.
“Shutting down the government is harmful to the country. And it never produces positive outcomes — on policy or politics,” he warned on the Senate floor.

I’m thinking the massive national debt created in part by loser Mitch McConnell and his out of control spending with his Socialist / Marxist Republican and Democrat pals is far more damaging to our Republic.

The useless UniParty have a deadline to fund the rest of the government by March 8th 2024.

I’ve got no problem shutting the government down until these worthless members of congress initiate a balanced budget that reduces significantly our 34 trillion national debt and eliminates totally this unconstitutional fraudulent spending.

If a government shutdown hurts the reelection of these Republican and Democrat traitors to our Republic then so be it. Good riddance to them come Election Day. But the end result will be the survival of our Republic.
