Apparently his company was based on an island to avoid taxes and never made any money, just used venture capital for the 1BB valuation.

Seems this is true.

I wasn't sure about Vivek but I'm starting to think he is a mole.

He can't abolish the FBI through presidential reorganization as he would have to go through congress, he can't act unilaterally except in the case of an emergency, maybe. W asked congress to authorize permanent presidential reorganization authority and was denied but a president can declare an "emergency" whenever he wants through executive order. It seems to me that Vivek is just saying what he knows MAGA wants to hear but he has no intention of actually taking action, he thinks if something happens to Trump between now and nomination then he could slide in as the nominee and if Trump is the nominee, he can be a mole in his administration.

Vivek Ramaswamy lays out plans to eliminate federal agencies including FBIJuly 20, 2023
Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is laying out plans to shut down a number of federal government agencies if elected, starting with the FBI, Department of Education and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Ramaswamy says his plan does not require rebuilding anything, but rather reorganizing.

“In many cases, these agencies are redundant relative to functions that are already performed elsewhere in the federal government,” Ramaswamy said in an interview with NBC News. “When you have redundancy, that’s actually a formula for corruption, as well as waste, fraud and abuse.”

Ramaswamy’s plan would see money used to run the FBI, for example, be redistributed to the U.S. Secret Service, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.

Ramaswamy says the Presidential Reorganization Act of 1977 provides “an important statutory basis” to go forward with this plan,as it allows him to submit plans to Congress about reorganizing an executive agency.

Eliminating federal agencies has become a recurring talking point in Republican primaries for years — most famously when then-Texas Gov. Rick Perry said in a 2011 GOP debate that he would eliminate three agencies but couldn’t remember one of them.

Is there any way security agencies (especially) can avoid being politically influenced? That would be a step in the right direction to fixing "weaponization" of government agencies

It's irrelevant. They don't play to the right, or the left. They play to the top.
