The centerpiece of tonight's Republican National Convention program will be the roll call vote confirming Trump's nomination.

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A federal judge in Connecticut has ordered a father and his teenage son to disclose data on drones that were shown firing a gun and deploying a flame thrower in videos posted online last year. Bret Haughwout (HOW'-it) and his 19-year-old son have so far refused to comply with Federal Aviation Administration subpoenas seeking their testimony and documents. Prosecutors successfully argued that the subpoenas are part of a legitimate investigation into possible violations of regulations that ban people from operating "aircraft" recklessly.
