In a recent tweet, Ramaswamy announced the launch of the Vivek Kitchen Cabinet, a program that allows anyone to fundraise for his 2024 campaign and earn a 10% commission. He aims to break up the small group of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/south-dakotas-noem-launches-legal-strategy-to-take-on-biden\/\" title=\"South Dakota's Noem Launches Legal Strategy to Take on Biden\">political fundraisers<\/a> who currently profit from elections and give everyone a chance to benefit.
