White House Reporter Gives Inside Scoop on Difference Between Trump and Biden

Virginia Allen | Kristen Eichamer | Crystal Bonham •   January 22, 2025

White House reporter Reagan Reese says she had more interactions with President Donald Trump in just one day than she did with President Joe Biden over the year and a half she spent covering the Biden White House. 

It was not unusual for the Biden administration to “call a lid,” a term used to dismiss White House reporters at the end of the news day, around 4:00 p.m., according to Reese. If the first two days in office are any indication, Reese says she expects to be working much longer hours while Trump is in office. 

Even after leaving the White House at 7 p.m. Tuesday night, Reese, who has worked as The Daily Caller’s White House correspondent since August 2023, said Trump was still working in the Oval Office

Reese joins this week’s edition of “Problematic Women” to discuss the first 48 hours of the Trump administration and Trump’s interactions with the press since he was sworn in on Monday. 

Also on today’s show, we discuss the slew of executive orders Trump has already signed on issues ranging from securing the southern border to requiring some federal employees to return to in person work. Plus, we share our favorite fashion looks from Inauguration Day!
