What's happening at the 2024 RNC? See full week schedule, how to watch and livestream (2024)

The 2024 Republican National Convention began Monday in Milwaukee with former President Donald Trump and Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, being formally selected as the GOP's 2024 presidential and vice presidential nominees.

Trump's announcement of Vance as his running mate Monday afternoon ended months of speculation as to who Trump's running mate would be. Vance was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2022 after defeating former Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan for an open seat in Ohio.

The event kicked off just days after an assassination attempt against Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania at a rally. One man was killed in the attack and two were seriously injured. The assassination attempt prompted a slew of Republican speakers on stage Monday night to call on Americans across the country to unite in the wake of the shooting.

The 2024 Republican National Convention continues today through Thursday. Here's everything you need to know, including the schedule and how to watch.

"The security plans for National Special Security Events are designed to be flexible," Cheatle said in the news release. "As the conventions progress, and in accordance with the direction of the President, the Secret Service will continuously adapt our operations as necessary in order to ensure the highest level of safety and security for convention attendees, volunteers and the City of Milwaukee."

"In addition to the additional security enhancements we provided former President Trump's detail in June, we have also implemented changes to his security detail since Saturday to ensure his continued protection for the convention and the remainder of the campaign," Cheatle said.
