WASHINGTON - Vice-president Mike Pence will make the case for a second term for himself and President Donald Trump on Wednesday , capping a night at the Republican National Convention designed to emphasise the military, law enforcement and public displays of patriotism.
Mr Pence will speak in optimistic tones"honouring what makes America great" and outline the accomplishments of the Trump administration compared with"platitudes" from Democratic nominee Joe Biden, Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh said on a call with reporters on Wednesday. Separately on Wednesday, the Justice Department said it requested data from four states led by Democratic governors - New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan - to determine whether orders requiring nursing homes to admit adult coronavirus patients resulted in the deaths of thousands of elderly residents.
Mr Kellogg's comments come as two former Homeland Security officials have appeared in ads by Republican Voters Against Trump suggesting the President is a danger to national security. In a perfect storm of issues colliding, NBA teams staged a wildcat strike to protest Mr Blake's shooting, led by the Bucks, who normally play their home games in Milwaukee just north of Kenosha, and refused to play the league's playoff games on Wednesday. The Milwaukee Brewers baseball team is also not playing on Wednesday.
