NEW: A DOGE staffer appears to be posting DOGE work on his public GitHub, as of this week. The staffer, Jordan Wick, also created a repository for a Twitter DM-downloading tool just 3 days ago. He posted work on geospatial data in Jan—undersea cables, ports & “critical minerals.”
Last May, Wick’s hyperlocal SanFran-based startup (AccelerateSF) expanded to sell AI efficiency systems to the federal govt, changing to “AccerateX.” They claimed 2 large “transit agency” clients. (DOGEr Anthony Jansco was also behind the group: ) wired.com/story/elon-mus…
On Feb 18, Wick uploaded “org chart_viewer” to his GitHub (), with fields for employee union status, full-time status, location, & a “satisfaction” rating (out of 5). He also uploaded fields to filter searches for depts in the Small Business Adminstration. gist.github.com/Jomanw
On Feb 24, Wick uploaded code related to a search tool that allows viewers to filter employees by office, union status, and whether positions are statutorily mandated. (Project 2025 seeks to dismantle federal govt unions.) Archived: ghostarchive.org/archive/mvDXy
The Twitter DM downloader: From Feb 25-27, Wick uploaded and updated a tool for downloading Twitter DMs. It’s entirely unclear what the hell this is for. Archived: ghostarchive.org/archive/ZSVD5
Again, Wick’s GitHub is currently public. It’s not clear if he knows. He has 10 followers and follows 53 accounts. Here are the people currently following him.
Here are the 53 GitHub accounts Wick follows.

In early January, weeks after DOGE staff—including Wick’s business partner—reportedly began recruiting for DOGE, Wick uploaded repositories for sensitive geospatial data. They include int’l ports, undersea cables, and multiple nodes for mineral deposits.
Last May, Wick and fellow DOGEr Anthony Jansco launched AccerateX, an AI-powered govt efficiency startup converted from their SF-focused Accelerate SF. That month, the site began redirecting to AccelerateX, which sells AI govt operating systems. accelerateSF.org
In Feb 2024, an AccelerateX LLC was incorporated in Whitefish, Montana, a ski resort town. The company’s principal office, however, is in Ft. Lauderdale. The LLC isn’t registered as a foreign entity with the state of Florida. XX
Well, I spelled AccelerateX wrong 2 out of 4 times. To be clear: It is not AccerateX; it is AccelerateX.
Update: Wick’s GitHub is no longer public

@LanceTreyark @HambrechtJason Is he stealing nuclear secrets, like Trump? Zero evidence. But he was — and apparently accidentally or thinking no one would know — revealing non-public information about his work
@clkbsfth @HambrechtJason I don’t care if some people want to shrug that off and be contrarian, that’s their view, but it is objectively newsworthy. These actions are not standard practice in the fucking US govt
@LanceTreyark @HambrechtJason I’m not concluding anything. I am saying what he literally did. Ask career federal employees if this is standard sanctioned behavior. You have your view on how serious it is. I’m not taking a position there. He can explain if he wants. But it is newsworthy.
@clkbsfth @HambrechtJason There is non-public information there — such as the specific metrics like union membership, for instance, which would alarm many federal workers. It also reveals some of their internal process. You’re not an expert on federal administration, your opinion of this is just yours
