- Donald Trump has been officially nominated as Republican Party’s presidential pick for November’s election. He chose Senator JD Vance of Ohio as his running mate.
- Trump made his first public appearance since Saturday’s assassination attempt against him, walking into the Republican National Convention (RNC), which kicked off on Monday, with a bandage on his ear.
- The head of the US Secret Service has expressed confidence in the plan to secure the RNC, while the FBI said the motive behind the Pennsylvania rally shooting – suspected to have been carried out by Thomas Matthew Crooks – is still under investigation.
- US President Joe Biden told NBC News that it was a mistake to say he wanted to put a “bulls-eye” on Trump, but defended his portrayal of his Republican rival as a threat to democracy.
