TL;DR Summary

The Republican National Convention's "Make America Safe Again" night featured claims about rising crime and immigration issues, many of which were fact-checked and found misleading. Despite a record high in unauthorized border crossings under Biden, recent data shows a decline and that migrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born citizens. Today also marks the 10th anniversary of Eric Garner's death, a significant event in the fight against police violence. Additionally, U.S. officials revealed an Iranian plot to kill Trump, and Democratic lawmakers are pushing back against a virtual roll call vote for Biden's nomination.
