CCP Survivor Looks to Unseat ‘Deep State’ Dem, Fight Left for Propping Up Socialism
6th October 2026
Congressional candidate Lily Tang Williams told the Daily Signal that witnessing Democrats push the same policies she experienced under the Chinese Communist Party motivated her to want to unseat Rep. Maggie Goodlander, D-N.H.
Goodlander, who spent more than 10 years in Washington before running for Congress in 2024 and served as a legal counselor to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland under former President Joe Biden, has refused to condemn socialism when asked. She also voted “present” on the September House resolution condemning socialism.
Tang Williams, during her interview with the Daily Signal, said she became politically involved under former President Barack Obama after realizing that “what he said, what he did” reminded her of what she “went through in China.”
“I don’t want my kids to live in some socialist country,” she said. “It sounded familiar to me. [Obama] was pushing for common core, centralized government and education, and the bribe state with the federal dollars to push.”
“I took my kids out of public school and put them in a charter school to exercise my parental choice,” Tang Williams added.
