Pres. Donald Trump moves swiftly to implement his new agenda after inauguration

The White House confirmed to ABC News that Vivek Ramaswamy, who Trump had picked to help lead his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) alongside Elon Musk, will now step aside to focus on running for governor of Ohio.

"Vivek Ramaswamy played a critical role in helping us create DOGE," Trump-Vance transition spokesperson Anna Kelly told ABC News in a statement. "He intends to run for elected office soon, which requires him to remain outside of DOGE based on the structure that we announced today. We thank him immensely for his contributions over the last 2 months and expect him to play a vital role in making America great again!"

An Ohio operative told ABC News last week that Ramaswamy would announce his gubernatorial run soon.

"Vivek's base plan remains [the] same: to get accomplishments at DOGE and then announce a run for governor shortly," the operative said.

Butler County first responders have entered the arena to applause, including one holding the coat of Corey Comperatore, the volunteer firefighter killed during the assassination attempt on Trump at his July 13 rally in Pennsylvania.

A moment of silence was held in honor of Comperatore.

Trump and Melania Trump walked into Capital One Arena together as "Hail to the Chief" was played by a military band.

The atmosphere is similar to that of Trump's campaign rallies, with attendees clad in red "Make America Great Again" hats.

Trump shook hands with supporters in the crowd, many of whom held up their cellphones to film his entrance.

"I'm not going to reveal every detail, except to say maybe we did discuss football just a little bit, and some of the games yesterday," she said about what was discussed on the short trip. "And we also talked about the now-president's upcoming trip to Los Angeles, and I talked to him privately about that with the Olympics coming, and how important that is."
