that, “After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio.”The Republican National Convention kicked off this week, with delegates and officials descending on Wisconsin amid the tumult that follows a Saturday assassination attempt on Trump as he becomes the GOP’s official nominee.

Snelling gave few details at a press conference to address the topic but said police are responding accordingly after the attempt to ensure the safety of the convention and the surrounding neighbourhoods. He said police continue to be in constant contact with the Secret Service. In a clip of an interview with NBC News airing later tonight, Biden is asked about the comment and notes that he didn’t say “crosshairs.”

Campaign aides said Vice President Harris is prepared to debate Vance and contrast the Democratic agenda with that of Republicans when it comes to abortion rights, gun violence and the economy.

Kennedy Jr. met with Trump Monday “to discuss national unity,” a Kennedy spokesperson says.

Former Republican New York Rep. Lee Zeldin described Vance as “highly intelligent,” “likeable,” a “hard worker” and especially a “good messenger.” “Fight, fight, fight, fight,” they shouted. The couple dozen voices spread across the floor of Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, echoing through the arena, as they had a half dozen times earlier Monday afternoon.

“We thought, is this real? Is this a hoax?” she said. “Then we saw those monumental photos and video.” “We should all be thankful right now that we are able to cast our votes for President Donald J. Trump after what took place on Saturday,” Testa said. Lauren Blauvelt, executive director of Planned Parenthood Advocates of Ohio, said the announcement is a “disappointing decision,” calling Vance “an absentee senator more interested in his own political ambitions than in supporting the people he was elected to represent.”

Vance was a never-Trumper in 2016, calling Trump “dangerous” and “unfit” for office. But by the time Vance met Trump in 2021, he had reversed his opinion, citing Trump’s accomplishments as president. Trump endorsed Vance in his 2022 bid for U.S. Senate, and Vance is now one of the former president’s fiercest allies on Capitol Hill.Ohio Lt. Gov. Jon Husted nominates JD Vance as vice presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention hours after Trump’s announcement.

“He can do a friendly media outlet and he can do a more hostile interview. And if you give it to him, he’s ready to punch back. And if the reporter doubles down, he’s ready to continue to defend his position and to do it with a smile on his face,” Zeldin said. She repeated what Biden said about lowering the temperature and uniting the country when he addressed the nation on Sunday night.

Vance has challenged the legitimacy of criminal prosecutions and civil verdicts against Trump and questions the results of the 2020 election. FBI officials said Sunday that they were trying to access Crooks’ phone. They said the limited insight they had into recent communications didn’t reveal anything with regard to a motive in the attempted assassination.

Rubio is seen in the party as a respected voice on policy and his background — as the son of Cuban immigrants and a Spanish speaker — could help Trump appeal to Latino voters. He could also help draw more moderate and establishment-minded voters and donors turned off by Trump’s coarse rhetoric. But Rubio’s candidacy is complicated by the fact that he lives in Florida, like Trump.
