Ossoff’s Vile Attack on Trump Aide Backfires; DOJ Moves Against Abrego Garcia | 8/19/26 FIRST LOOK

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff facing fierce backlash after making a sexist insinuation about White House aide and bone cancer survivor Natalie Harp, whose life was saved by an experimental treatment accessed through President Trump’s Right to Try policy; the Justice Department presenting new evidence as it asks an appeals court to reinstate human-smuggling charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia; and new Census data showing nearly one in ten Gen Z adults now experience no face-to-face human interaction during a typical day as the social damage associated with COVID lockdowns persists; and much more.
