If New Year's Eve revelers at Mar-a-Lago appeared hot and bothered when headliner Vanilla Ice was tag-teaming onstage with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, former President Donald Trump kept it cool.

The 45th president rang in 2024 to a concert at his Palm Beach social club playing host to partiers who were dancing and selfie-ing away to the rapper's perennial track "Ice Ice Baby."

Donald Trump recently shared a post to social media that he tried to activate the Insurrection Act as the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was unfolding — a move that may signal a new direction for his legal strategy, Newsweek reported.

The post says Trump was prevented from announcing his use of the act — which is only activated in extreme situations — on X because the platform, then known as Twitter, was removing his posts.

In one way or another, he will be right.

Donald Trump sent a New Year’s wish to his supporters Monday — and promised that 2024 will be “historic.”

In the wake of Donald Trump expressing his support for a replacement to the FBI's J. Edgar Hoover building to be constructed in Washington D.C., a report has resurfaced financially linking the former president to a bid to build the new structure, Newsweek reported.

"The FBI headquarters should not be moved to a far-away location, but should stay right where it is, in a new spectacular building, in the best location in our now crime-ridden and filthy-dirty, graffiti-scarred, capital," Trump wrote on Truth Social Saturday. "They should be involved in bringing back D.C., not running away from it."

Facing four criminal indictments and a variety of civil lawsuits, GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump has been furiously railing against both prosecutors and judges.

Trump slams special counsel Jack Smith as a "deranged lunatic" and has accused Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and New York State Attorney General Letitia James (both of whom are Black) of being racist. Another target is Justice Arthur Engoron, the judge in James' civil fraud lawsuit against Trump and his Trump Organization.

As Donald Trump fights four legal cases while running for president, he's clearly hoping an electoral victory will shield him from accountability. According to MSNBC's Jordan Rubin, there's no guarantee that Trump will face trial before the 2024 election, but if he does, many are wondering which case will go to trial first.

As Rubin points out, Trump D.C. election interference case has a trial date set for March, but that could be pushed back as the former president appeals rulings over claims that he's immune to prosecution.

Green Day’s New Year’s Eve lyric change attack on Donald Trump has struck a chord with MAGA fans — who furiously reacted online Monday.

The San Francisco rockers changed a line to their classic “American Idiot’ during a performance on Dick Clark's New Year's Eve Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest just before midnight Sunday.

Ronald Reagan famously joked that his "11th Commandment" was "Thou shalt not speak ill of another Republican.” But Donald Trump, in contrast, has never been one to cut his political foes any slack just because they're conservative.

Many of the people Trump now rails against are conservative Republicans, including Cassidy Hutchinson, Sarah Matthews and Alyssa Farah Griffin — all of whom worked in the White House when he was president.

Donald Trump’s attorney thinks voters should be shielded from knowing about the legal problems facing the former president.

Christina Bobb said on Newsmax that officials spreading “propaganda” about Trump criminal cases — he’s facing 91 charges in four jurisdictions — is tantamount to election interference.

Donald Trump's latest and "boldest" defense yet against charges he plotted to delegitimize the results of the 2020 election isn't even close to being supported by the Constitution, The New York Times reported.

Next week, Trump is expected to argue before a federal appeals court that he's immune from prosecution for actions he took while president. But, as The Times points out, the U.S. Supreme Court has already acknowledged that the Constitution does not explicitly address whether Trump is immune.

A former Republican congressman predicted on New Year’s Day that Donald Trump will never face trial in Jack Smith’s election subversion case — but that the GOP will be scrambling to find a replacement for him as he drops out of the presidential race.

In a long list of predictions for the new year, ex-rep. John LeBoutillier (R-NY) took particular aim at the trial set to start on March 4 in Washington, D.C.

Although special counsel Jack Smith and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis are both prosecuting election interference cases against former President Donald Trump, their criminal indictments differ in some important ways.

Willis, unlike Smith, is using RICO laws to prosecute Trump. And Willis has indicted a long list of Trump allies as co-defendants. Smith's election interference case, so far, doesn't have any indicted co-defendants — only unindicted alleged co-conspirators.
