Here’s what Arizonans should know

Tuesday's Republican National Convention saw Arizona's Kari Lake take the stage in Milwaukee to talk about the media, drug overdoses and border control.

The convention's third day is themed "Make America Strong Once Again" and will focus on the country's role in international politics.

"Under Joe Biden, the weakest commander-in-chief in our country’s history, America has become a global laughingstock. From our dumpster fire of a southern border to the botched Afghanistan withdrawal to the Hamas-Israeli war to enabling the Iranian terrorist regime, Biden has repeatedly made the wrong move on the world stage," according to a news release from the Republican National Committee.

"Under President Trump’s vision, America will once again be strong and secure and put an end to the Biden-Harris administration’s weakness," the news release said. "President Donald J. Trump will secure our borders, curb Chinese and Iranian threats, and restore America’s rightful standing on the world stage."

Here is what to expect in the last half of the convention.
