At the start of this year , former President Trump faced four criminal cases and a flurry of civil cases.

But now, the criminal cases against Trump have largely fallen apart while his civil cases have slipped into muddy waters.

Hunter Biden , the son of President Biden , was convicted by a jury on federal gun charges and pleaded guilty to federal tax charges.

Two House members, from both sides of the aisle, also faced criminal charges in 2024 .

Former Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) pleaded guilty in August to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, avoiding a criminal trial but ensuring some jail time.

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) was indicted alongside his wife in May on charges they accepted nearly $600,000 in bribes from foreign entities.
