Luigi Mangione Gets Anonymous Jury; Michigan Drops Freshman Grades | 8/12/26 FIRST LOOKFL 8 12
Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including a judge ordering an anonymous jury for Luigi Mangione’s state murder trial as supporters continue to romanticize the accused killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson; the University of Michigan replacing first-semester letter grades with pass or no credit in an effort to address student mental health despite rampant grade inflation and declining academic preparedness; and kratom products sold at gas stations and smoke shops facing growing scrutiny amid surging poison-control reports, addiction concerns, and more than 5,200 fatal overdoses in which kratom was detected; and much more.
