Former US President Donald Trump has selected Ohio Senator JD Vance as his vice presidential candidate, a significant decision that comes amid heightened tensions following an assassination attempt at a Trump rally. Vance, a 39-year-old businessman and writer, has embraced Trump's populist agenda despite earlier criticisms. Trump announced his decision on his social network, Truth Social, noting Vance's suitability for the role after considering many other candidates.

The announcement was made on the first day of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Sources indicated that Florida Senator Marco Rubio and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum were informed they were not selected. The assassination attempt at a campaign event in Pennsylvania on Saturday has added gravity to Trump's choice, highlighting the importance of a vice presidential candidate who could potentially step into the presidency.

The assassination attempt at Trump's rally marks the first such incident involving a US presidential candidate in the era of social media. The incident has sparked a flood of conspiracy theories online, with various unfounded explanations circulating about what transpired. Despite the chaos, Trump has maintained his campaign schedule and emphasized the importance of standing strong against such acts of violence.

In related news, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the classified documents case against Trump, ruling that the appointment of special prosecutor Jack Smith violated the Constitution. This legal victory for Trump comes at a critical time as he prepares for the upcoming election.

Meanwhile, in Venezuela, the campaign team of opposition candidate Edmundo González has announced plans to denounce violent acts against their supporters. This move underscores the volatile political climate in the country as it heads towards elections.
