Mary Margaret Olohan, Daily Wire’s first White House correspondent, joins The Riley Gaines Show for an inside look at Trump’s second-term White House, the rise of new media, and the changing future of political journalism.

Riley Gaines reacts to the public response surrounding the Lindsay Clancy case and the debate over postpartum psychosis, criminal responsibility, and justice for victims. Riley argues that mental illness, postpartum depression, and postpartum psychosis are real and deserve serious discussion — but that compassion for the accused should not erase the children at the center of the story.

In this episode, Riley looks at the broader cultural pattern of public sympathy shifting toward perpetrators while victims fade into the background. She also discusses motherhood, social media outrage, the role of online narratives, and why Cora, Dawson, and Callan should remain central to the conversation.
