How To Appoint a Commissar (Part 10) - Jake Sullivan & Maggie Goodlander
The most institutionalized striver careerist commissar power couple of all time? National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan & Congresswoman-elect Maggie Goodlander - plus an update on downballot races
Comrades: Commissar “power couples” are double doses of demoralization.
Jake Sullivan and Maggie Goodlander are the cringe millennial version of the Clintons and Obamas. They have racked up two Yale degrees each and have spent a combined 35 years in The Swamp siphoning away our money to serve the regime. The former is Biden’s National Security Advisor, while the latter has just carpetbagged a Congressional seat in New Hampshire. Both have the charisma, authenticity, and usefulness of a paper straw. They are so institutionalized they don’t even notice the padded walls. During Maggie’s campaign, she pretended to be poor renter in Nashua despite owning a $1.2 million primary residence in a different district. “The Resistance” is when you come from a wealthy political family and attend The Groton School, Yale, and Yale Law School. Her opponent, based rooftop Asian tiger mom Lily Tang Williams, exposed these naked emperors to the world. Like a bull in a china shop, she smashed Goodlander’s meticulously manicured image that was crafted over decades of resume-building, striving, and plotting.
Although Maggie won the race, she will never live down this epic mic drop moment - inject it straight into your veins:
“You are wealthy. You are worth $20-30 million dollars. How do you know about regular people’s suffering? Do you go shopping? Go to Walmart to buy food?! I talk to those people. And you pretend to be a renter in Nashua. A few months ago moving back to run for this open seat with millions of dollars from Washington DC insiders. You do not understand regular people’s concerns!”
Further below, I will translate Maggie’s nauseating NYT regime stenography and campaign website.
***WARNING: The photos and spice may give you indigestion. This could be the final edition of the commissar series because it’s hard to imagine any commissars topping this. I also hope to shift to a more positive tone for a new Roaring 20s following our momentous victory. Sorry I’m not sorry about being mean to these people. They have ruined many lives and countries, including our own. As you read this, they are trying to send as much of our money as possible to Ukraine to maximize death before they lose power. No mercy on mockery until we have accountability.
*ELECTION UPDATE: Several downballot races were “fortified” while we were distracted celebrating. Suspicious 2020-style vote dumps swung close Senate races to Democrats in Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, and Wisconsin - all states that Trump won. Instead of MAGA patriots, respectively these states will be sending a cartel colluder, union toady, CIA spook, and Wall Street spouse to the upper chamber. Without the shenanigans, GOP would be closer to a filibuster-proof majority at 57 instead of 53. The House majority will end up being similar to the Senate (~5 seats), creating risk of RINO backstabbing and grandstanding. California will embarrassingly continue counting until Thanksgiving. The margin of fraud is a zombie that will continue to haunt our elections until we have real reform requiring voter ID and restricting mass mail-in ballot harvesting.
In a House Race in N.H., a Famous Spouse, and a Traumatic Pregnancy
Maggie Tamposi Goodlander, the wife of the national security adviser, is navigating a personal landscape with little precedent in her run for Congress in New Hampshire.
Maggie Tamposi Goodlander gave birth to her stillborn son in a hotel bathtub on Easter. Her fetus had been diagnosed with a fatal condition and had died in her womb. Doctors recommended a two-day procedure to remove him, with an overnight stay at a hotel near the hospital. If she went into labor, they feared, she could hemorrhage. But getting an appointment took weeks. The procedure that Ms. Goodlander needed is also commonly used for abortions later in pregnancy. Doctors across the northeast were flooded with patients traveling north from states where abortion had been banned after the fall of Roe v. Wade.
Her surgery came just a day too late: Ms. Goodlander, 37, delivered the baby in 2023 at a hotel near the hospital, relying on her experience taking a hypnobirthing course on YouTube. The harrowing experience, she said, exposed her in a deeply personal way to the new reality of a post-Roe America and inspired her politically, helping fuel a desire to run for a House seat in her native New Hampshire to help fight for abortion rights.
The death of any unborn child is tragic. Especially on Easter, the day we celebrate the resurrection of Christ. I pray for any family that faces hardship while trying to create life. Maggie is clearly traumatized from an unimaginable loss. No serious person would deny abortion rights to women in these perilous and painful situations. However, it is unsettling to weaponize private grief for political gain.
But there was another remarkable element to her experience. The national security adviser to the president, Jake Sullivan, was there, too — in his unofficial capacity, as her husband. As she enters the race for New Hampshire’s second district, Ms. Goodlander comes armed with a powerful story, an impeccable résumé and deep connections in Washington and New Hampshire. Yet as she campaigns across western New Hampshire, she will have to navigate a personal landscape with little precedent.
There are only a handful of examples of the spouse of a high-ranking official running for federal office, and none when that official has been at the center of one of the most divisive issues in global and domestic politics — the war in Gaza. Ms. Goodlander, who is a decade younger than her husband, says the couple is used to navigating dueling professional obligations. The two met at a security conference in Munich during the Obama administration, when she was working for then-Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut and he was working for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the State Department.
Ah, the Munich security conference. The Catalina wine mixer of demoralization, death, and destruction. Where commissar romance and world wars blossom. Jake Sullivan is the poster boy of our failed foreign policy, which has resulted in misery and millions of deaths around the world. He has spent more time spewing carbon emissions with Obama, Clinton, and Biden than his wife. Since commissars are married to their careers more than their spouses, many wait too long to start families and don’t age well from soul-sucking BS PMC NPC jobs.
Jake looks like one of the Obergruppenfuhrers in the Downfall bunker:
More than a dozen years later, they are one of the most well-connected Democratic couples in government. While Mr. Sullivan served as a foreign policy adviser in two administrations, Ms. Goodlander worked as a White House adviser, a deputy assistant attorney general at the Justice Department, a foreign policy adviser in the Senate and an intelligence officer in the Navy Reserve. Former President Bill Clinton and Mrs. Clinton attended their 2015 wedding in New Haven, Conn., where Mrs. Clinton delivered a reading. (Mrs. Clinton fit the appearance in between East Coast fund-raisers for her presidential campaign.) Mr. Sullivan’s sister, brother and sister-in-law all work for the Biden administration.
More recently, Ms. Goodlander talked about running for office with several prominent Democratic lawmakers and with former President Barack Obama. Some of those private discussions were initiated by Mr. Sullivan, who asked the officials if they would be willing to offer advice to his wife, according to three people familiar with the conversations. Those kinds of interactions are legal, experts said, as long as they are happening in Mr. Sullivan’s personal capacity, to avoid violating the Hatch Act, which prohibits federal employees from engaging in political activities while they are working.
The Biden administration is a crony commissar family affair. Personal, professional, and political are all intertwined in The Swamp. Maggie is not serving the people of New Hampshire, she is serving her masters in DC. The conflicts of interest are plain for everyone to see. Yet MSM propagandized enough voters in New Hampshire to help her win a Congressional seat. Election interference, anyone? Is that Blinken behind HRC?
“Nothing changes because his spouse happens to be running for federal office,” said Donald Sherman, the chief counsel for Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a non- profit watchdog group. “His wife running for office is the kind of thing that makes the news but doesn’t change the legal obligations.”
Ms. Goodlander says her campaign will operate with the “highest ethical standards consistent with the law.” The couple met repeatedly with lawyers at the White House and the National Security Council to get detailed guidance on the Hatch Act before Ms. Goodlander began her campaign. She flatly rejected the suggestion that a donor to her campaign could be seeking to influence her husband — and the foreign policy of the administration. “I’ve had my own career and I will continue to have my own career,” she said. “I can’t be bought and neither can Jake.”
But the optics of those lines can be tricky: Mr. Sullivan can, for example, attend a fund-raiser for his wife but is barred from asking for donations. He can wear a T-shirt supporting her campaign but not at the White House, his workplace. He can put a bumper sticker on his car — as long as the vehicle isn’t used for his official duties. Mr. Sullivan is also immersed in an issue that has inflamed the Democratic base and taken over the campaign trail, as candidates across the country find themselves disrupted by protesters objecting to the administration’s support for Israel. When asked, Ms. Goodlander declined to offer any criticism of the Biden administration’s response to the war, saying she was “really proud” of her husband.
So far, Mr. Sullivan has remained a nearly invisible presence in Ms. Goodlander’s nascent campaign, only briefly appearing, smiling broadly at his wife, in a still shot included in her kickoff video. Last weekend, as Mr. Sullivan flew to the Middle East for talks with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, Ms. Goodlander mingled with voters at the St. Philip Greek Food Festival in Nashua and addressed an awards dinner hosted by the New Hampshire Young Democrats.
Optics trumps ethics. Imagine all the awkward rules and conversations this married couple has to live under. They are the type that would kiss each other while masked, just like Kamala and Dougie. Maybe she told him about running for Congress while he was at spin class too. Such a fake, hollow existence.
But their life in Washington has raised other questions, as well. In 2018, the couple bought a house in Portsmouth, N.H., a scenic seaside town located in the state’s other congressional district, and Ms. Goodlander began teaching law at the University of New Hampshire and Dartmouth College. After Mr. Biden won the White House, she returned to Washington to work in the Justice Department as a top official in the antitrust division. Shortly before announcing her bid earlier this month, Ms. Goodlander rented a house in Nashua, N.H., the biggest city in the district she hopes to represent in Congress and where she was raised. Voting records show that she last cast a ballot in the district in 2008, when she was an undergraduate at Yale University and voted absentee.
Ms. Goodlander dismisses concerns about her residency by citing her deep family roots in the state. Her grandfather Samuel A. Tamposi was the state’s largest commercial real estate developer, a limited partner in the Boston Red Sox and a major Republican donor. Her mother, Betty Tamposi, served as a Republican legislator in the New Hampshire statehouse and ran for the same seat that Ms. Goodlander is trying to win. During that race, in 1988, Ms. Tamposi was criticized by Senator Gordon Humphrey, a New Hampshire Republican, for placing “political ambition ahead of the welfare of an infant,” a comment that referenced a young Ms. Goodlander.“From my living room you can see the hospital where I was born and the shoe factory where my great-grandfather worked,” Ms. Goodlander said. “My family’s been here for over a hundred years, so this has always been our home. I left home to serve my country and I’m coming back home to do the same.”
I’m a poor renter! But my granddaddy was a rich commerical real estate developer and I own a million-dollar home. I’m from here! But I haven’t lived here in my entire adult life. I’m family oriented! But like my mother, I prioritizing political ambition ahead of raising a family. The cognitive dissonance hamster wheel spins into overdrive.
Maggie’s campaign website biography reads as pure satire.
Maggie Goodlander was born and raised in Nashua – the city that her family has called home for more than 100 years. Growing up in New Hampshire instilled in Maggie the values of community, citizenship, service, and that our democracy isn’t something you watch happen from the sidelines – it’s something you participate in. Maggie has dedicated her life to public service. She began her career working as a foreign policy advisor in the United States Senate where she helped write landmark sanctions legislation and strengthen democracy around the world. She went on to serve as an intelligence officer in the United States Navy Reserve for over a decade.
Fake nativism is only used for carpetbagging. How are those sanctions and democracy strengthening operations going? Sounds like a color revolution agent.
After graduating from law school and serving as a law clerk on the United States Supreme Court, Maggie returned to New Hampshire to fight for the most vulnerable Granite Staters and to teach constitutional law at UNH and Dartmouth. She also served on the boards of the NH Women’s Foundation, NH Legal Assistance, the World Affairs Council of New Hampshire, and the Rudman Center Advisory Board. Driven by her belief that no politician is above the law, Maggie served as counsel in the first impeachment of former President Donald Trump. And after President Biden was elected, Maggie went to the U.S. Department of Justice where she took on corporate monopolies as a Deputy Assistant Attorney General, committed to the idea that no corporation is above the law either. She stood up to real estate companies colluding on rent price and big healthcare companies that are making life harder for hardworking Granite Staters.
NGOs are the opposite of Democracy. She clerked for DOJ Stasi Merrick Garland. The first impeachment was pure political lawfare and anyone involved should be disqualified from any office.
Most recently, Maggie served as a senior advisor at the White House where she led President Biden’s Unity Agenda for the Nation, dedicated to solving five big challenges: beating the opioid epidemic, tackling the mental health crisis, holding Big Tech accountable, meeting our sacred obligation to veterans, and ending cancer as we know it. Maggie knows how to get things done and will deliver for New Hampshire in Congress. She will be a workhorse for the people of the Second District and will never stop fighting for a freer and more just Granite State.
All talk, no results. The nation is less unified than ever. Opioids are running rampant through an open border, leftists are becoming more mentally ill, Big Tech monopolies remain dominant, veterans are homeless and committing suicide every day, and Joe Biden has a worse shot at curing cancer than Peanut the Squirrel. She does not know how to get anything done, other than failing up. Democrat freedom and justice means Communist control and cronyism.
Whenever you see commissars, think of this image. Dictator Kim Jong Un and his bootlickers fake laugh at a fake computer screen. Even if they stoped getting paid, they would still continue the act because they are true believers with nothing better to do. They strive for the sake of striving and status, nothing else. The Potemkin village must live on forever in their minds. For millennial bluebonic plague blueanons, it will always be 2008 just like for their boomer counterparts it will always be 1968.
Meanwhile, “rationalist”
keeps showing his TDS and double standards:
"Live free or die" NH couldn't even elect the libertarian tiger mom, shameful!
Great post, Yuri! Sullivan, et al., are organized crime.
