Happy New Year! (Or, soon-to-be New Year, depending on your time zone.)

May 2025 be a better year than all these past four years underneath the Biden-Harris regime combined.

President Trump and first lady Melania just rang in the New Year at Mar-a-Lago, where a huge NYE gala took place.

The attendance list included Lara Trump, Elon Musk and his son X, Ted Cruz, and JD Vance.

No sign of Bill Gates, though (thank God.)

When asked, President Trump said that his only New Year’s resolution is happiness and health for all:

The Palm Beach Post reported on the Mar-a-Lago NYE party:

For President-elect Donald Trump, 2024 was a political nadir and stunning rally; a year of defiant court appearances, felony convictions, an assassination attempt, then another, and then a victory too overwhelming to quibble about, too brazen to ignore.

But the tumultuous year of blistering breaking news alerts will come to an end Tuesday as 2025 is ushered in at Trump’s opulent personal residence and private club Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach.

If past New Year’s Eve parties at the historic salmon-hued estate are any indication, it could include a star-studded cast of Hollywood stars, athletes, high-profile political cronies, affluent club members and this year, new friends and girlfriends including billionaire Elon Musk and socialite Bettina Anderson, who is dating Donald Trump Jr.

“Everybody in the world wants to be at Mar-a-Lago,” said former chairman of the Republican Party of Palm Beach County Sid Dinerstein, who isn’t attending the New Year’s Eve bash but has held fundraisers at the club in the past. “These days, they’ll have every other big name who can claw their way in.”

Palm Beach Police Department spokesman Capt. William Rothrock said Monday that more than 300 guests could be attending Mar-a-Lago’s New Year’s Eve party. That would put it into one of the largest categories of events in the club’s traffic management plan with the town. Guests will be ferried to the club by bus from an off-site location.

Rothrock said he’s not aware of any fireworks displays planned.
