The wife of Joe Biden’s national security adviser Jake Sullivan is attempting to snatch up a U.S. Congress seat in New Hampshire, but she just got brutally eviscerated by her Republican opponent during a fiery debate last week.
Sullivan’s wife, a Democrat, has been leading in the polls for the hotly contested seat, but after this incident, some are hopeful the Republican candidate may be able to pull it off. Read below, and watch the epic takedown!
From Fox News: A Republican congressional candidate in New Hampshire blasted her Democratic opponent Thursday evening, reminding her she is a multimillionaire after the Democrat accused her of favoring the rich.
“She believes that we should give a break to the wealthiest and the biggest corporations and hope for the best, hope that the results will trickle down to hardworking people,” Democratic congressional candidate Maggie Goodlander, who is married to national security adviser Jake Sullivan, said of Republican Lily Tang Williams during a debate.
“I take a very different approach. I believe that the middle class deserves a tax cut, and I believe that we will do a lot for this country by ensuring that we don’t continue this disastrous tax policy.”
Raising her hand to respond, Republican Lily Tang Williams hit back at Goodlander, saying, “You are wealthy. You’re worth $20 million to $30 million. How do you know about regular people’s suffering? Do you go shopping? Go to Walmart? Buy food? I talk to those people. And you pretend to be a renter in Nashua a few months ago, move back to run for this open seat with millions of dollars from Washington, D.C., insiders.… I don’t have money to run a TV ad, and you pretend you are poor, complain rent is so high. You do not understand regular people’s concerns.”
The report explains that both women are actually millionaires, but Goodlander has a net worth of between between $9.9 million and $39 million, while Williams is worth between $3.8 million to $8.6 million.
They are both running for the open seat in New Hampshire’s 2nd District, which was left vacant by Democratic Rep. Annie Kuster.
Goodlander, who worked in Biden’s Justice Department from 2022 to 2024, reportedly just has an apartment in the district, but claims if she wins the election, she will purchase property there. She is part of a well-connected political family in New Hampshire.
Her Republican opponent Tang Williams, a Chinese immigrant, came to the U.S. with just $100 in her pocket, and became a U.S. citizen in 1994.

Williams’ campaign has taken on new life after she eviscerated Jake Sullivan’s wife in that debate, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has come forward to endorse her.
Sunday afternoon, Williams shared RFK Jr’s endorsement video and wrote:
Breaking news: @RobertKennedyJr has endorsed my campaign for Congress. He gave this special endorsement because of my pro-liberty positions and my campaign against the Democrat Deep State. I am deeply honored by his endorsement and I am ready to win on Tuesday! #NH02
I feel like God sent him to help me win. Only 2 days left. Ever since the debate video clip, things are happening super-fast in an amazing way. Thank you for your prayers.

Rep. Chip Roy (R-Tex.) wrote, “Well, I’d love to go back to Congress with 218 Republicans half as good as @Lily4Liberty – an immigrant who loves freedom, understands the evil of government power, and who eviscerated her progressive liberal opponent for #NH2 – Jake Sullivan’s wife. Watch! Let’s Go!”
Roy shared a longer version of the video, in which Goodlander touted that she previously worked for Sen. John McCain, and declared that she “believes deeply in the cause for freedom in Ukraine.”
Wiliams fired back, “Your math cannot add up! If you want to pay for all that you want, do you math. How are you going to pay for it?”
Williams also told Goodlander that her husband, Jake Sullivan, should be fired!

Watch Williams’ powerful campaign video below, which she released last year when she announced her run for U.S. Congress.
“I fear that the country I love is becoming like the country I left. That’s why I’m running for Congress,” she said.
I am Lily Tang Williams. I was born in China to illiterate working-class parents, suffered under Mao’s Cultural Revolution and Communist dictatorship. I wanted freedom. America was my promised land.

Vote for Lily Tang Willians. She has lived under communism and she understands what it does to the nations it worms its way into. pic.twitter.com/O0431Ytnk6
