In this segment, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton discuss the disturbing societal reaction to the Lindsay Clancy case, where a mother is accused of killing her three children. They express deep concern over the "demonic insanity" of people, particularly on social media, who are cheering for her and supporting her defense of insanity.
Clay highlights a double standard, arguing that if a father had committed the same horrific acts, there would be no public displays of support or empathy. They criticize the idea that mental health issues or psychiatric medication should excuse such violence, emphasizing that the focus and empathy should remain on the innocent victims and the grieving father.

04:35 - Gender Disparity in Public Empathy Clay explores a hypothetical scenario to argue that a man in the same position would never receive such public support.
