Vivek Ramaswamy’s Latest “Ripoff," per the MSM

all right this interview is supposed to

be heated we're going to react to it raw

I have some serious thoughts about this

Viv character specifically about his

past I think he's done some shady stuff

uh in terms of building his wealth you

know that's just part that's just part

okay I'm I'm not a v hater I actually

think a lot of what he says really

resonates and and is probably has some

real Merit of course some ideas need to

be developed uh but but look you know I

think I'm I'm reasonably neutral here

like there are things I I really love

there are things I'm skeptical about and

there are things in this past and I'm

kind of like I don't know man that's

shady you know that that about probably

sums up how everybody feels about every

politician so I I don't think that's

terribly uh biased so let's go ahead and

listen to uh What uh what this guy says

the title here is this is awkward for

you mevi Hassan's takes on Viv uh in new

interview okay yeah are we ready for

this I I'm ready for it here we go you

probably seen all you care to see of VC

ramaswami lately is because his campaign

for the Republican nomination president

is entirely based on his getting as many

media hits as possible including

appearing yesterday on the show of a

YouTuber with a history of really gnarly

anti-semitic posts the fast talking

ramaswami who Chris Christie famously

said sounds like chat GPT always appears

unbothered by his stream of

contradictions and falsehoods never

really gets nailed down long enough to

be caught in them but until today Ras

Swami had not gone up against one

interviewer in particular one who is

built for just this sort of situation

msnbc's own medy Hassen in in retrospect

probably should have kept it that

way so medy I've made this really easy

for everybody and I did this in the

early weeks of the campaign yeah I

released 20 years of tax returns

something that no presidential candidate

let alone somebody who's successful in

business has done I challenge Democrats

and Republicans alike ining the B family

to do it exactly we have

2009 you what I would

adise

you 9 and 2010 you made

$750,000 you had the money to pay for

law school you didn't need a Soros

affirmative action scholarship that you

now I

mean none of this is worthy but if you

think it is let's get to the detail that

was actually the first affirmative

action you took a scholarship for

immigrants so why did you take a

scholarship for the children

IM which falsehood would you like me to

address the financial one or the or the

one about my views on affirmative action

cuz I can go in whichever make 7

not not at the time that I had applied

for the scholarship that fall

December this is awkward for you you

did you can watch that full interview

today on you all right let's get some

thoughts on this so uh here's the thing

uh when you become a Soros fellow and

these are at least the current numbers

each fellow receives up to

$90,000 of financial Support over two

years uh VI ramaswami did become a Soros

fellow now Soros George Soros is a is an

interesting character uh he he's

basically a massive massively

influential philanthropist and the

reason he's so massively influential is

because he's got a lot of money oh my

God imagine that when people have a lot

of money they they have uh they have

influence yeah that's essentially the

way it works now Elon Musk is not very

happy about this guy and we'll touch on

that as well in this video uh but what's

important to remember is that uh VI went

to a very expensive School uh VI uh went

uh to Harvard and uh Yale he went to

Yale law school graduated from Yale Law

School in 2013 Harvard in

2007 uh and V here argues well you know

I wasn't making that much money uh

working for the hedge fund that I was

working for which ended up funding my uh

my uh um real vant uh startup where you

know we basically took a failed drug and

rebranded it as a success and then

raised hundreds of millions to billions

of dollars and that was the start of

VI's path to becoming a billionaire

which again is is the path that pisses

me off because VI's like oh well you

know 99% of Alzheimer's drugs failed

yeah but you also knew that the one that

you were read interpreting the results

for was already a failure you just

created a poster uh and listed this new

company on the New York Stock Exchange

and then pumped it up on Jim Kramer's uh

show to to make it seem like a success

and pretend it was a success when you

knew it was a failure that's part of the

the shady past that pisses me off you

could watch all that in detail on my

channel just type in meet Kevin VI by

the way we've reached out to their

campaign uh multiple times uh to uh to

to get their side of it uh they refused

to direct directly talk to us about it

instead they will release videos on on

the internet just saying well you know

99% of drugs failed we've done other

successful drugs when the reality is

even these other successful drugs uh at

least some of them if not all of them

we're still working on the research on

it but at least some of them were

already approved drugs in other

countries that companies just partnered

with with vivacon to Market in the

United States which is a way of saying

like he didn't actually develop drugs

he's just a good drug marketer but

anyway you know

it's it's worth noting that if you apply

uh for a scholarship and you get it most

people are going to take the money even

if you're taking if you're making 750

Grand you get $90,000 to pay for two

years of your Harvard Education which at

the time is probably $ 35 to

$45,000 you're probably going to take it

uh so I I I think I think it is pretty

clear here yeah sorry VI you you're

probably going to take a slight L on

this one is that actually really going

to hit them in the long term probably

not it's it's not that big of a deal uh

I so I don't know that this is like oh

my gosh The Smoking Gun for the failure

of it this is this is no impact the fact

if anything more people are just going

to talk about aake it's just going to

help him uh so I don't actually think

that MSNBC clip is really that big of a

deal I do think what's actually

interesting though is talking about

Soros Soros by the way $8.6 billion net

worth the guy is 93 years old he's been

characterized as this like extreme

leftist because he donates to like BLM

uh and and you know uh other more like

police like de relative defund the

police style initiative which he argues

well it's not defund it's fun for

community policing and stuff like that

he's considered one of the most generous

givers which the last person people have

uh Associated being the most generous

Giver with with Sam bankman free this

guy started a hedge fund in the' 70s

known as the quantum fund started with

$12 million in 1970 when he was 40 that

works out to about a

13.8% compounded annual rate of return

if you bring that out to his current net

worth right now potentially a little bit

higher given that he's probably already

donated a substantial portion of his net

worth so he's done pretty well but

anyway uh he's basically been

characterized as the puppet behind any

big liberal plan and that's why like

people hate being associated with him on

the right and that is something that

people like to say is that oh well VI is

Soros back it's true he was a Soros

fellow but that was Al when he was in

college so his opinions could have

changed since then and pretty much

everybody who goes to college is is in a

liberal institution almost every College

leans left that's just sort of the the

college system the way it is here's what

VI in full says about the Soros issue so

i s I went straight to this part so we

could listen to his Soros response it's

really important to know going into this

that people regularly try to argue this

is so normal oh it was actually George's

brother yes Paul and Daisy offer the

fellowship for new Americans for

immigrants and immigrant children yes

Paul Soros is known as the silent

brother almost by Design to make it seem

like they don't work together obviously

you've got one group of people that say

what no no they're separate they they

don't they operate separately and

another group of people who say dude

come on it's the same thing it's just

important to know and so we're adding

the context that yes there's George

Soros which is the one that basically

everybody's frustrated by that's your

sort of musk angry person or whatever

then there's the silent side which is

still in the Soros family it's just the

brother Paul and Daisy Soros foundation

so let's listen to VI's response here it

doesn't make in my opinion much of a

difference from all of the facts that we

were talking about here but let's just

add it so we could just hear his point

of view and and add uh add the

appropriate uh response caller so let's

go ahead and play that now but it was

actually Paul and Daisy Soros it was his

brother they call him the invisible

Soros and some news things and you got a

scholarship was it in 2011 to go to law

school y from I applied for it Paul and

Daisy s so what have you been telling

people about that because obviously a

lot of people are skeptical yeah sure I

mean look I'd say my advice to everybody

is be skeptical of anybody who's who's

telling anything when they're running

for office here's the facts I was 24 or

25 years old in the fall of

2010 when I applied on a Fridays when I

heard about it the deadline was Monday

there was classmates who said oh there's

this scholarship first time I heard

about it but you know 50,000 bucks I'm

not going to turn that down in my early

20s filled out a scholarship application

over the weekend the fun of it the main

funer not George Soros but Paul Soros

it's his brother right who made his

money independantly who by the way now

is long Dead who funds the scholarship

it's a generic scholarship hundreds of

kids him dead doesn't matter though it

would be saying like I took a he's dead

now it's you asked me you asked me to

you asked me to let you finish so I know

I'm I'm gonna ask for the same courtesy

if you you ask me to explain it the guy

is long dead because I think the big

question that comes up is who's the

boogeyman pulling the strings and and

and so the answer is I think it's

relevant to know this guy's long Dead

made his money independently has

different totally different background

from George Soros as well but

nonetheless I wasn't even paying

attention to this I I couldn't have told

you what what George soros's ties were

let alone George Soros why I wasn't

paying attention to him at a guy a

different guy named Paul sorus is fun in

the scholarship at the age of 24 I would

have had to be an idiot a fool to turn

down a merit scholarship that you win to

help pay for graduate school as hundreds

of other kids win generically and I'm

honest about that that's exactly what I

did were there strings attached no there

weren't now the reason I also bring

these other facts up keep in mind and

this is the this is the part that the m

MSNBC which we know we know propaganda

media okay okay people get all mad about

the media and stuff like that

whatever we know the9 tax returns were

750k of income at 24 right so because I

think it's just important for people

skeptical people to stay skeptical is

that I have no tie to George Soros other

than criticizing him there are other

candidates who has tied to George Soros

right and that's the point that's why I

actually and I want to be clear about

this I'm covering this but I want to be

clear I don't actually think this is

really that big of a deal uh I think

what's a bigger deal is the Alzheimer's

drug which uh again I've already

described my take his his common

response and this is how he regularly

responds is well you know it it failed

and and drugs fail that's the way Pharma

works but you already knew it was a

failure you just rebranded it as a

success that's the problem we could just

quickly listen to this and move on was a

drug for Alzheimer's disease we put it

into a subsidiary it's what we did for

all of the drugs that subsidiary was

aavan

99.7% of drugs ever tested for

Alzheimer's disease have failed mine was

one of them one of thousands of drugs it

also failed now when that company went

public I had and rent had an opportunity

to sell shares in acent before the

failure we did not that's actually

remarkable and that's actually where a

lot of straightup falsehood in the last

you can look it up public filings

everything else that part does not

matter though because during the phase 3

development and during like in other

words well there wasn't really

development it was trials during phase

three because the drug existed it was a

failure drug right so you have to think

about it it's a failure drug you IPO it

it's worth billions of dollars what do

you do with the value the market cap of

that drug what do you do with that which

is now they they had to Rebrand the

company uh Gene therap C gene therapy

stock they had to Rebrand it because it

was such a failure they wanted to hide

it uh obviously the internet doesn't

forget but anyway what do you do for the

years that the market cap is high at

this company right during 2015 to 2017

before you release the phase three

trials showing that the drug you already

knew was a failure you already knew it

was a failure before you release to the

world that it was a drug what do you do

well you end up propping up a brand new

company uh basically the holding company

realan Sciences right and you're able to

prop up and build this company this new

company and get funding for other

projects so in other words it's kind of

like you take a failed drug you Market

it as a success you IPO it now the

company is worth billions of dollars

with that clout you go create the rest

of your Pharma company and go market

other drugs because other companies are

like crap okay if you can Market a

failed drug you can Market our drug and

they partner with with Viv on marketing

these other drugs and that's how you

build what's now Rance Sciences which is

a multibillion dollar company so my

whole criticism is that the leverage the

power that this failed drug gave

vake created the company that he owns

now or what like 10 to 15% ownership and

now that's the idea it doesn't matter

that you didn't sell shares anyway so I

just wanted to add that color since some

people in the comments were confused uh

thinking that I wasn't fully Ware of all

these other details it just doesn't

change anything okay it still makes me

suspicious about his past and his

intentions but it doesn't mean I dislike

some of the things that he says it is

also interesting to note which we may as

well just touch on uh in this video uh

that uh Elon Musk is not very happy

about uh about Soros uh Elon Musk has

revealed his plans to potentially even

sue a non-government an NGO a

non-government organization funded by

George Soros uh that's because Michael

shellenberger uh recently uh posted an

article discussing basically a George

Soros packed NGO pushing sensorship in

Ireland arguing that uh basically uh

there are differences in the way hate is

being reported versus what's actually

happening uh and this is pissing Elon

Musk off because rightfully so if people

are like oh hate is rising because of

Twitter or whatever and potentially Elon

musk's involvement but it's actually not

then the truth is hate isn't going up

but companies are making it seem like

they are so they can get more donations

right the more a company like an NGO can

imply there's more hate than is actually

happening the more donations they can

get that's the way it works if there's

no egregiousness then you don't get

donations like climate change activists

only get donations when they're in the

media and there's like some egregious

cause that they have to fight that's how

they get donations okay that's how the

nonprofit World works you pay yourself

big salaries at nonprofits so that way

you profit but your your fund is

technically nonprofit uh and then you do

egregious things to get attention more

attention you get the more donations you

get welcome to capitalism in the

nonprofit world where you don't have to

pay taxes anyway uh Soros donates to a

lot of these different funds uh Elon

Musk is suggesting hey you know we're

going to go after these foros backed

Soros backed foundations he does not

like Soros backed individuals Elon goes

as far saying X will file legal actions

to potentially stop George Soros that

puts a lot of burden on EX shareholders

which are probably already not doing

well especially since advertising

revenue is down 60% but keep in mind

being Soros backed not a good label you

know who else was Soros back Alvin Bragg

uh now they argue no Bragg no brag Bragg

wasn't directly donated to by George

Soros uh it was actually the political

arm of color of change a progressive

criminal justice group that received uh

many many millions of dollars from

George Soros and they just happened to

contribute millions of dollars of

campaign expenses towards Mr Bragg so in

other words yes Bragg was Soros back

anyway so that kind of puts all of this

together for you yes VI took scholarship

money uh from uh Soros yes he was making

a lot of money at the time is it a big

deal no is it going to hurt his

candidacy not at all congratulations man
