In this episode of Nightly News: Kids Edition, we will be talking about the major headline involving former President Donald Trump and an incident that took place in Pennsylvania. It’s a sensitive topic, so you might want to grab a parent or grown-up to watch in case you have questions. The Republican National Convention is taking place this week in Milwaukee and the Democratic National Convention will take place in August in Chicago. We’ve put together a kid’s guide to these political conventions and explain what they are and why they are held. Also, making a difference — one boy is helping raise awareness about celiac disease. It’s a disease that limits the type of foods many kids and grown-ups can eat. Plus, King James — NBA All-Star LeBron James and Team USA are getting ready to compete in the Paris Olympics. James sits down to talk to us about why he decided to suit up for the Olympics a third time.
