Trump Pivots On AI Regulation; What Is Hantavirus?; Worker Ousted by DOGE Runs for Office

I mean, that's so much of this is that like these individuals that she also found went on to be part of also so many other agencies throughout the federal government.

These weren't like one-off folks.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

She was interacting with some of the big leagues.

Honestly, it's hard to say because it's a little bit early and it's a very, very crowded race, like the 6th Congressional District in Maryland, crowded, lots of folks in there.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

From what we've been seeing online, though, federal workers love her.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

And a lot of federal workers, both current and former, live in this district.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

So she has a shot.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

And look, Goldstein, she's running as a Dem.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

She's been very critical of how Democrats have taken kind of a passive approach, like, you know, we'll get in there once we take back the House.

And so I'm very interested to kind of see how that messaging plays in the midterm environment as well.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

She's said, for example, that it's a priority to, you know, continue the CFPB's work.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

And it's going to take, though, quite some time, which she recognizesβ€”

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

to undo a lot of these damages, especially when it comes to agencies like the CFPB that were just like so monumentally gutted.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

I'm really going to be following this one closely.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

I'm excited to see where she goes.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

I really, really feel for these workers, and I really, really feel for all of these customers that were stranded.

Spirit, in so many ways, like something that we love to make fun of just a little bit, like you take spirit when you have to, but also it was like actually available, and it worked, and it wasn't nearly as expensive as anyone else.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED

It's kind of sad, especially when I look at like the shrinking airline industry in the US.
