Nuland (Robert Kagan’s wife) managed to be in the Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Biden administrations as a political appointee (not a civil service lifer). She was an assistant to Dick Cheney, and has promoted an interventionist foreign policy. Nuland played a key role in the 2014 coup in Ukraine. Like the Kagans, Podhoretzes, and Kristols, she’s even got the multigenerational thing going — although her father was a medical doctor, he got articles published in “Commentary”.
Thanks. I did not know all of that.
