Jordan Wick
Jordan Wick is one of the few early DOGE staffers, who did not have some sort of direct link to Musk or one of his companies, having worked as an engineer at autonomous car company Waymo. He also is a cofounder of a vague civic-technology-with-AI-or-something startup named Accelerate SF with early DOGE booster Anthony Jancso; this is likely what brought him into DOGE. In DOGE itself, he has kept a relatively low profile, but he worked alongside Luke Farritor and Gavin Kliger in DOGE’s takeover of the CFPB, and he has stayed on as a full-time staffer at the agency since March 5th, even as he has been deployed elsewhere.

This action was likely taken by Jordan Wick in response to discovering that some number of loan recipients had “1900” as their birth years (DOGE presumed similar circumstances at SSA indicated fraud when it was really issues with data entry). It is possible that this action was a pretext for closing other accounts.

Open Questions
- Why is Jordan Wick's detail to the FCC so murky and weird?
According to documents FOIAed from the agency, Jordan Wick is supposed to have been detaled from DOGE to the FCC around March 18th (the agreement is not signed) and he is listed as a volunteer. The detailing agreement mentions that Wick is being detailed from OPM which will bill for his services. Is OPM involved or is this just a bad cut and paste job? Also, at the time of this detail Jordan Wick was an employee of the CFPB, which isn’t mentioned at all anywhere.
