White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has been in the news for some time.

Leavitt, the youngest White House Press Secretary, has been redefining political style with her wardrobe.

Leavitt’s political career has taken off at unprecedented speed, especially in the last six years. She ran for election to the US House to represent New Hampshire’s 1st Congressional District in 2022, losing in the general election.

However, she has gone from college grad to White House press secretary in the past six years.

This week, she is going insanely viral for being able to do two jobs at once.

Karoline Leavitt and her husband, Nicholas Riccio, met in 2022 before getting married three years later. They welcomed their son, Nicholas Robert Riccio, nicknamed “Niko,” in July 2024.

 

Despite having a high-profile job, she also finds time to tend to her son.

Margo Martin, Donald Trump’s Personal Account Special Assistant and Communications Advisor, walked into Leavitt’s office this week and snapped a picture of her not only working behind a desk but also holding her son and feeding him his bottle.

How Social Media Reacted To White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

“Very disturbing. Women should not be working with young children. It’s horrible to normalize this. A government that was actually right-wing would be doing the opposite,” one person said.

“She should resign. She’s being paid a professional wage to be a professional,” a second person added.

“L. The baby is learning that mom cares more about work than the baby,” a third person said of Karoline Leavitt.

“Wow, I never had a job where you can take your baby to work. She probably has a playpen in her office,” a fourth person wrote.

“Wait, so it’s okay for her to bring her kid to work, but the lady in Congress can’t?” one final person added.
