Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy launched a "TRUTH. Over Myth" link on his 2024 campaign website on Monday morning, an effort his aides said will push back against the "lies" surrounding his campaign.
The new link is meant to address "the BS, baloney, lies, and planted trash peddled by insecure campaigns, Super PAC puppets, 'listless vessels' of the political establishment, and fake establishment media," according to the description on the campaign website.
Some of the “Myths” He is pushing back against based on his website:

The World Economic Forum Connections:
Two years ago, the WEF tried to throw false bait by naming Vivek a ‘Young Global Leader’ (like they did to other successful people like Glenn Beck, Elon Musk, and Tulsi Gabbard, to name a few.) Vivek explicitly rejected their ridiculous “award.” The WEF repeatedly refused to remove his name from their list despite escalating demands, so Vivek sued them. And succeeded. They tried to put him on their list, so he put them on his. The WEF folded completely and met all of his demands in the lawsuit: a public apology, disavowal, and a commitment to never name
someone again without their explicit permission.
That’s how Vivek rolls: He fights. And he wins. Just as he’ll do for the people of this country. Vivek is Klaus Schwab’s worst nightmare. WEF tried to put Vivek on his list. Instead, Vivek put WEF on his own list – and became the first prominent American to sue them in court.

Vivek Doesn’t Support Israel: 🤡
WRONG. Keep lying, Nimarata Randhawa. The desperation is showing. By the end of Vivek’s first term, the US-Israel relationship will be deeper and stronger than ever because it won’t be a client relationship, it will be a true friendship. The centerpiece of Vivek’s Middle East policy in Year 1 will be to lead “Abraham Accords 2.0” which will fully integrate Israel into the Middle East economy – by adding Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, and Indonesia to the pact which was one of President Trump’s crowning foreign policy achievements.
Vivek will also partner with Israel to ensure that Iran never acquires nuclear capabilities. That’s a hard *never.*
Most importantly, he won’t cut aid to Israel until Israel tells the U.S. that it no longer needs the aid. That’s what true friends do: they’re honest with each other. We expect that of our friends in Israel, And when Israel gets to that point, we should all rightly celebrate it as a mark of achievement and pride for both the U.S. and Israel. That’s what Vivek actually said, so don’t believe the opponents’ lies that he wants to cut aid to Israel – which makes zero sense as a foreign policy priority any time in the foreseeable future. We will not leave Israel hanging out to dry – ever. (But that didn’t stop his opponents from pouncing to lie about his position).
Good friends also learn from each other, and Vivek has said we have much to learn from Israel. He’s traveled there countless times with one of his most important business partners – a founding investor at Roivant – who is based there. Vivek wants the U.S. to learn from Israel’s border policies, crime enforcement policies, national identity, and missile defense capabilities – and will
lead the U.S. accordingly.

Vivek is really just a secret “Trojan Horse” for George Soros: 🤡
This one is so funny that it feels odd to dignify, but man it comes up a lot! So here goes. When Vivek was 24 years old, he won a generic scholarship that hundreds of students win to attend graduate school. It was NOT funded by George Soros. It was sponsored by a relative of George Soros (Paul, his brother) who is long dead. There were no strings attached. Just a generic scholarship. Vivek would have been a fool to turn down that scholarship and anyone who would have shouldn’t get anywhere near the White House doing trade deals on behalf of our country.
Vivek wasn’t born rich either. Unlike any other candidate, Vivek voluntarily released 20 years of tax returns at the start of this campaign – and challenged his competitors to do the same – in an extraordinary act of transparency. Well, no good deed goes unpunished. Opposition researchers pointed out that Vivek made over $1 million the year he won the scholarship. Well, not quite. Vivek’s first big payday at the hedge fund only came the year after he applied for the scholarship. And even if you’ve made a million dollars, you’d have to be pretty foolish to turn down a $50,000 scholarship if you win it. It’s not that complicated.
Oh, and by the way – there’s another candidate in this race who George Soros has praised and for whom George Soros’ investment partners hosted a fundraiser in June. And another one who got a $160 million loan from George Soros himself. We’ll let you guys do your own homework on that.

Vivek is Part of Big Pharma and Made $$ on a Failed Alzheimer’s Drug: 🤡
WRONG on both. Calling Vivek part of big pharma is about as inane as calling Rumble part of Big Tech. It’s also funny because most big pharma executives really don’t like Vivek, because he called pharma’s corrupt bluff of soft coordination on which drugs they’d develop versus not to actually rescue medicines that big pharma had abandoned – and he built a multibillion dollar company of his own in the process. That’s how he ended up developing a staggering *five* new FDA-approved products, including lifesaving and life-changing therapies. That’s one of the best track records for a new biotech company in modern history, and it’s why most pharma executives aren’t particularly fond of him.
(Side note: Vivek invested early in Rumble when it was still a private company, to challenge Big Tech’s orthodoxies – in the same way Vivek’s first company Roivant challenged Big Pharma’s orthodoxies).
One of the drugs that Vivek developed was a drug for Alzheimer’s disease, through one of Roivant’s subsidiaries called Axovant. Like 99.7% of all drugs tested for Alzheimer’s disease, it failed. Unlike most of Roivant’s subsidiaries which went on to become immensely successful – and Roivant (the parent company) which is a nearly $10BN public company today – Axovant ended up failing after the Alzheimer’s drug was terminated. But the idea that Vivek made any money on that failure is a total lie. To the contrary: Vivek could have sold shares in Axovant before its failure. But he didn’t. And neither did Roivant. That was an unusual decision, and some would even call it honorable.
(The in-the-weeds critics will say: “But he sold some shares in Roivant, didn’t he?” Answer: yes, he and other shareholders were forced to sell a tiny portion of their shares in 2015 to facilitate an outside investor entering Roivant in 2015. And the shares that Roivant Vivek sold back then are worth a LOT more today than they were back then).
Bottom line: one of the therapies Vivek helped develop is a life-saving therapy in kids – as a father of two young sons, that is the accomplishment in his life that he is most proud of. He has also overseen the development of other medicines, including for psoriasis, prostate cancer, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids.

Vivek is a 9/11 Conspiracy Theorist!
This one is funny. Vivek isn’t obsessed with 9/11 as a topic, but the media certainly seems to be when they’re around him. Vivek has never once proactively brought up 9/11 on the campaign trail or in media interviews, but he speaks candidly when asked: the U.S. government absolutely did not tell us the entire truth about 9/11.
Here’s the ugly TRUTH: the FBI quietly declassified documents in 2021 that definitively reveal our government lied to the public about basic facts of Saudi Arabia’s involvement in 9/11, until documents were declassified and they changed their story 20 years later. Omar al-Bayoumi, a 42- year-old graduate student, welcomed, housed, set up bank accounts, and gave rent money to the first two Qaida hijackers after they landed in Los Angeles in January 2000. Al-Bayoumi claimed to have met the two terrorists entirely by chance: The 9/11 Commission report verified that Bayoumi’s altruism was in the name of hospitality, as he claimed.
The FBI, 20 years later, changed its story. In documents declassified last year, the Bureau affirmed that Bayoumi was in fact an agent of the Saudi intelligence service who worked with Saudi religious officials and reported to the kingdom’s powerful ambassador in Washington.
The reason the people don’t trust the government is because the government doesn’t trust the people. The reason that’s relevant today is the U.S. government continues to lie ever since then – about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, about the justification for the 2008 bailouts, about the Trump Russia collusion hoax, about UAPs, about the Hunter Biden laptop story, about the origin of Covid-19, about the Nashville transgender shooter manifesto, and countless other matters. We can’t just sweep the past under the rug if we are to rebuild public trust in our country.

Vivek Wants Transgender People in the Military: 🤡
Nope. Vivek is the first candidate who had the courage to speak TRUTH about transgenderism: it’s a mental health disorder. Period. This means that transgender individuals are already disqualified from serving on that basis, and we don’t need to dignify that delusion by creating a separate category for it that we then have to ban – because it already is effectively banned for all intents and purposes. A federal appeals court earlier in recent months even held that transgenderism is covered by the Americans with Disability Act – so that further reinforces the reality.
The real “woke military” issue that NO ONE else seems willing to talk about is…well, the touchy issue of lowering physical standards for women to serve in combat roles. Vivek is against it. And he’s the only one in the field who’s man enough to actually say it.

Vivek Supports a Death Tax: 🤡
WRONG. Vivek supports a 12% flat tax across the board, while eliminating cronyist deductions and loopholes.
Fake news and threatened campaigns will point to Vivek’s second book, Nation of Victims, where Vivek lays out a mathematical calculation on how to fully eliminate the federal income tax, which wasn’t even constitutional for most of its history. Vivek is an intellectual, not a partisan hack, so he explores ideas. Well, sue him for it. If opposition researchers and career politicians want to misquote his book, they might want to consider doing something they’d never considered: read the whole book, actually. It’s on sale for $15 right now on Amazon, 😉.
