Don't mess with the cat ladies! A comment made by Donald Trump's running mate, JD Vance, has struck a nerve across the country. He previously called Kamala Harris and other politicians "childless cat ladies." Now women who have cats and no kids are hitting back - including Jennifer Aniston and a lot of Swifties. As Ann Mercoglicano reports the claws are definitely out! And it's been a question since the assassination attempt on former President Trump. Was it really a bullet that hit his ear, or shrapnel? Now the director of the FBI is revealing the question has not yet been answered. Plus, there was chaos on Capitol Hill as pro-Palestinian demonstrators protested the Israeli prime minister speaking before a joint meeting of Congress. However, when they started burning an American flag, one man had seen enough. Alison Hall tells us how he tried to save Old Glory. And a woman was attacked by a grizzly bear and credits her hair clip with saving her life.

The FBI is now revealing Donald Trump's would-be assassin searched for details about how far away shooter Lee Harvey Oswald was when he made the fatal shot.

Ann Mercogliano has our report, and we warn you the video may be intense for some viewers. And Kamala Harris was in Indianapolis today, her second stop as a presidential candidate.

Plus, six days after that Microsoft computer glitch there's still chaos, Delta Airlines continues to be the hardest hit with more than 5,000 flights delayed so far. That's led to a new problem - children traveling alone being stranded for hours at airports. As Alison Hall reports that's led to lots of panicked parents. And you know all about the Old Faithful geyser at Yellowstone National Park, but this is even more dramatic. It's called a hydrothermal explosion, and as Les Trent tells us, you definitely want to keep your distance.

A number of close advisors to the president headed to Biden’s vacation home in Delaware to convince him he had no choice but to bow out. As les Trent reports, the president was reluctant up to the last minute. And the big question now is - who will Kamala Harris pick as her running mate?

The world got a frustrating reminder today of just how dependent we are on computers. A glitch that went global during a software update from one of the world’s largest cyber security companies has shutdown computers systems affecting everything from hospitals and banks to airlines and tv networks. Jim Moret reports on the worldwide chaos. And Donald Trump is now the official nominee of the Republican party for president, giving a record long 92 minute acceptance speech. The party faithful gave him a rousing ovation, but how engaged is his wife Melania? The former First Lady did appear, but said nothing, bucking a 40 year tradition of wives introducing their husbands. Plus, President Biden is isolating in Delaware as he battles Covid, which is both keeping him off the campaign trail, and from meeting with key Democrats to keep them from abandoning his candidacy. While the number of those saying Biden should step down grows, his campaign is saying he's not going anywhere. And contestants in the Miss America program have a platform or cause they champion, and for the woman who just won Miss Kansas, her cause is combating domestic abuse. She stunned everyone in the audience when she announced on stage, that her abuser was right there in the auditorium!

President Joe Biden is isolating at his home in Delaware after being diagnosed with Covid. It's just the latest blow to a campaign that has been floundering since that devastating debate just three weeks ago. And doing yard work is a typical summer job for a teenager. Only this job nearly cost this 17-year-old his life. Plus, one in eight women in this country will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime, and this meteorologist is one of them. After losing her hair from chemo she wore a wig on the air leading to a nasty email from a viewer...and boy is she setting him straight! And when the convention ends, former President Trump and his running mate will be hitting the campaign trail trying to rally voters to their cause.

When the former president arrived at the local emergency room just minutes after the shooting, other patients in the ER were stunned to see the hospital's high-profile patient come through the doors. And the secret service has been under attack for its failures in the wake of Saturday’s assassination attempt, and coming under special fire have been female members of the former president's security team. That’s sparked an uproar of its own. Plus, it was a race against time to save a girl who was buried when sand around her collapsed. The sand keeps falling and the tide is rising. As Jim Moret reports, it was all hands on to try to save her before it was too late. And she was enjoying the great outdoors at a national park...then a grizzly showed up!

Donald Trump took the stage for his first public appearance since the assassination attempt, and seemed genuinely moved by the rousing reception. Steven Fabian begins our coverage. And the former president hasn't spoken specifically about the extent of his injury although reports indicate a part of his ear was removed. So what's next for his recovery? Inside Edition’s Alison Hall has some answers. Plus, the secret service and local law enforcement each say the other was responsible for securing the building from which the shooter fired. So far, no one can explain why thirty minutes elapsed from when the shooter was first spotted, and those fatal shots were fired. And it’s a tragic story you've heard before and it's happened again. A child was left alone in a hot car, and by the time she was discovered, she was dead.

The Republican National Convention is underway and the assassination attempt over the weekend on former President Trump has dramatically changed the tone of the convention. With speeches being re-written to focus on a message of unity. It's been more than 40 years since an attempt has been made on a sitting or former president's life - not since Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981. And Trump is praising the secret service agents for their heroic actions, taking down the gunman with quote "one shot between the eyes." The counter sniper made the shot from 140 yards away, saving not only the former president but many others in the crowd. Plus, we're learning more about the 20-year-old shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, who graduated high school two years ago. He didn't have much of a social media presence and fellow classmates say he was a loner who kept to himself. He can however be seen in the background of a TV commercial that just happened to be shot at his school. And the assassination attempt came just two days before the start of the convention in Milwaukee. 50,000 people are in Milwaukee for the event, and security officials say they are ready to go.

It was must see TV as President Biden held a wide open press conference that was broadcast live around the country. The aim? To allay concerns about his fitness to continue another four years in the White House. What was it like there? Steven Fabian spoke with one of the reporters called upon by the president. And the latest from the Alec Baldwin trial where the question is being asked - are witnesses being given secret signals while on the stand? That's the allegation from the actor's attorney, as the trial takes a break to give the judge a chance to rule on that as well as a defense allegation that critical evidence about ammunition on the set was withheld by prosecutors. Plus, last night, ESPN presented the ESPY Awards with Serena Williams as host. She delivered plenty of zingers and even took a shot at one of the high profile athletes in the audience. And chances are someone you know has gotten Covid lately. The CDC reports there's an increase in covid cases in 39 states, with a new variant nicknamed “Flirt” responsible for 2/3 of the cases. For some people it's not their first time. Ann Mercogliano spoke with one woman who has gotten Covid eight times.
