Accounting Firm Breaks Ties with Trump, Saying Financial Statements Can't Be Trusted
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Donald Trump's longtime accounting firm has broken ties with the Trump
Organization, saying a decade of financial statements should "no longer
be relied upon." Newly revealed court documents show the accounting firm
Mazars said it would no longer act as Trump's accountant, citing a
conflict of interest. This comes as New York Attorney General Letitia
James is investigating whether the Trump Organization inflated the
values of its properties to obtain loans and then reduced them to evade
taxes.
