Donald Trump ramped up his attacks on Nikki Haley Wednesday by threatening to shun anyone who donated to her campaign.

“Anybody that makes a ‘contribution’ to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp,” he wrote on Truth Social. “We don’t want them, and will not accept them.”

Alina Habba, an attorney for Donald Trump, asked a witness to define "narcissism" as the former president looked on.

After attorneys for E. Jean Carroll rested their defamation case Thursday, Habba called Carol Martin, a longtime friend of Carroll, to the stand.

Former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro was sentenced Thursday to four months in prison after he was convicted in September of two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to testify and provide documents to the House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Federal prosecutors were seeking six months in prison for each charge, saying Navarro, "like the rioters at the Capitol, put politics, not country, first, and stonewalled Congress’s investigation," and that he "chose allegiance to former President Donald Trump over the rule of law."

Based on Donald Trump's heightened and increasingly inflammatory comments about Nikki Haley, one analyst suggested the former South Carolina Republican governor is scoring hits on his greatest vulnerability: his vanity.

The former Trump appointee to the United Nations has ramped up her attacks on the former president, pointing out his advanced age while also noting overwhelming evidence of his mental decline that often accompanies entering one's sunset years.

Former Trump adviser Peter Navarro on Thursday defied the advice given by his lawyers to complain directly to Judge Amit Mehta about his conviction for being in criminal contempt of Congress.

As reported by CBS News' Scott MacFarlane, Navarro argued to Mehta that he sincerely believed he was unable to testify before the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th Capitol riots because former President Donald Trump had invoked executive privilege claims.

Alina Habba, an attorney for Donald Trump, failed to convince U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan to dismiss a defamation case against her client before he was expected to testify.

On Thursday, Habba made the motion to dismiss after attorneys for E. Jean Carroll rested their case against the former president. Carroll sued Trump for defamation after he denied raping her.

The jury in the E. Jean Carroll damages trial on Thursday saw footage of former President Donald Trump struggling to answer basic questions about his second marriage.

As reported by The Messenger's Adam Klasfeld, Trump in a 2022 deposition was asked by attorney Roberta Kaplan, who is representing Carroll in the case, in which years he was married to Marla Maples.

U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is insisting the only way there will be a "solution" to what Republicans are calling the "border crisis" is for Donald Trump to once again become president.

For months, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been working with Senate Republicans, especially Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and U.S. Senator James Lankford (R-OK), to craft a bipartisan border deal that also provides funding to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan – a requirement of House Republicans.

U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta shot down Peter Navarro Thursday after the former White House adviser's lawyers claimed he "accepted responsibility" for contempt of Congress.

At a sentencing hearing, Mehta immediately discounted claims of Navarro's contrition for defying a congressional subpoena from the Jan. 6 Committee.

After Donald Trump's lawyer, Alina Habba, was seen partying with her client in New Hampshire after telling court she had a fever, there were expectations that the court would begin with a swift reprimand.

If there was one, it didn't happen in public view.

Appearing on CNN Thursday morning, former Donald Trump aide Anthony Scaramucci pointed to exit polling during the New Hampshire primary which he claimed shows the former president may have won the battle, but is losing the war.

Speaking with hosts Poppy Harlow and Phil Mattingly, Scaramucci — who advised the Trump campaign in 2016 and later served briefly in the Trump White House, if only for 11 days — claimed that he sees no evidence that the former president is bringing any voters into his camp that didn't support him 2020 — when he lost by 7 million votes.
