Republican National Convention

At the 2024 Republican National Convention Texans, including Governor Greg Abbott, took to the stage to spin a fact-free story about the state of the Texas-Mexico border and illegal immigration that excited the crowd but paints a grim picture if Trump is elected president again.

During his presidential nomination acceptance speech, Donald Trump recounts his feelings and reaction to the shooting at a rally that injured him and killed a supporter.

The former president's speech capped the final day of his party's convention.

NPR's Franco Ordoñez shared where the RNC might be headed now. For one, he says the vibe is fairly euphoric, as if the Republican Party is celebrating an election already won. But when it comes to Trump himself, some are saying he seems different, more vulnerable.

The Texas governor used his time on the Republican convention stage to praise Trump on border security and to challenge the Democratic president.

Cruz and Republicans in some of the country’s highest elected offices didn’t pull any punches when it came to their criticism of President Joe Biden’s border policies on Tuesday, the second day of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

The official theme was crime and safety. But key speakers, including Lara Trump and Nikki Haley, described former President Donald Trump as a family man and a unifier — despite his divisive persona.

In a peaceful protest in Milwaukee, progressive activists tried to send the Republican Party a message of resistance to a potential second Trump presidency.

The Republican National Convention starts today. Abbott and Cruz were floated as potential Republican presidential candidates early this cycle, though neither launched campaigns.

A small number of Republican leaders will be physically present in Charlotte, N.C., on Monday, but most of the convention will be virtual.
