(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) By modeling his campaign rhetoric and policy positions after former President Donald Trump, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy has fast become one of the leading 2024 Republican presidential candidates.
Ramaswamy was the rock star of Wednesday’s presidential debate, which further solidified his second place standing in the race with a post-debate haul of more than $450,000.
But records indicate that Ramaswamy is also a George Soros-funded Big Pharma guy who pushed the anti-Jan. 6 narrative and stated that he is open to pardoning the Biden family.
Questions also loom over whether Ramaswamy was one of the World Economic Forum’s “Young Global Leaders.”
The WEF itself claimed as much before Ramaswamy demanded that it remove a profile of him from its website.

Whether one believes the cover story that Ramaswamy rejected the WEF’s nomination, other red flags warn that Ramaswamy may not be the “America First” candidate he claims to be.
One of those things is a scholarship he received from the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans, a fund named after the billionaire oligarch’s older brother.
Ramaswamy reportedly even bribed a Wikipedia editor to remove this information about him from his page on the website—right before he announced that he was running for president.
However, while Ramaswamy was paying other people to hide the fact that he took blood money from the corrupt Soros family, it seems that he forgot to remove a social media post in which he praised George Soros for a 2021 op-ed in the Wall Street Journal that warned of Chinese President Xi Jinping’s efforts to install himself as a permanent dictator.
Well said, George Soros:
“I consider Mr. Xi the most dangerous enemy of open societies in the world.”https://t.co/kg9GCZqK6v

It got even worse for Ramaswamy when his 2022 Politico article “The Grand Old Party of Crybabies” resurfaced, in which he called Jan. 6, 2021, a “dark day for democracy.”
Ramaswamy also said that Trump was a “sore loser” for objecting the steal of 2020 election, compared him to Stacey Abrams and added that “our institutions shouldn’t have been tested.”
A pair of Jan. 12, 2021, social media posts further underscored his criticism of the president, whom he glowingly praised and offered unequivocal support for during the recent debate as other candidates commended the actions of former Vice President Mike Pence in refusing to allow challenges of the Electoral College votes.
What Trump did last week was wrong. Downright abhorrent. Plain and simple. I’ve said it before and did so in my piece.

Both are terrifying. Unfortunately Trump’s egregious behavior last week blinds us from seeing that Big Tech’s cure is worse. Makes for a winning game for China in the long run. @ElbridgeColby https://t.co/Jw7JWp0cPf

Another concerning thing about Ramaswamy is his ties to Big Pharma—specifically his company’s partnership with Pfizer and his desire to install a centralized database of private medical records.
It comes as no surprise that Ramaswamy also promoted wearing face masks and praised Joe Biden for pushing the COVID-19 vaccine.
Biden says all adults will be vaccine-eligible by May 1. That’s good news. Give credit where due.

The final nail on the coffin of the “America First” candidate image is him praising RINO governors—including Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia—and saying that he is “open” to a pardon the Biden family.
“… I would be open to evaluating pardons for members of the Biden family in the interest of moving the nation forward,” he said.
Anyone that thinks Governor Brian Kemp of Georgia is a good Governor does NOT deserve your vote

Ramaswamy is not the only GOP challenger whose promise has dashed the hopes of conservatives worried about Trump’s ability to withstand four or more lawfare attacks while running the most important campaign in U.S. history.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, whose lack of charisma has led his campaign to sputter, showed his true colors after lying to his potential voters by presenting AI images of Trump and former COVID czar Anthony Fauci as real; denying that Democrats stole the 2020 election; and calling Trump supporters “listless vessels,” among many other things.
