eyephone said:CNBC: Tax firm Mazars fires Trump Organization as client, says former president's financial statements are unreliable
The accounting firm Mazars has fired the Trump Organization as a client after saying that a decade's worth of statements of ex-President Donald Trump's financial condition "should no longer be relied upon," the New York Attorney General's office revealed in a court filing.
Mazars, which for years prepared Trump's income tax returns, informed the Trump Organization's top lawyer Alan Garten of that move and conclusion in a letter last Wednesday.
Mazars, which for years prepared Trump's income tax returns and financial statements used to obtain loans for his company, told the Trump Organization's top lawyer Alan Garten that it would no longer represent the company due to the lack of reliability of the financial statements in a letter last Wednesday.
The firm told Garten that its conclusion was based on filings made by the AG's office, "our own investigation," and other information from different parties.
"While we have not concluded that the various financial statements, as a whole, contain material discrepancies, based on the totality of the circumstances, we believe our advice to no longer rely upon those financial statements is appropriate," Mazars said in its letter to Garten.
Mazars also said in its letter that it would no longer "provide any new work product to the Trump Organization."
The firm said it based on its decision about the past work's reliability, "as well as the totality of circumstances, we have also reached the point such that there is a non-waivable conflict of interest with the Trump Organization."

Liar Loan said:I knew Trump's infamous tweet that Trump Tower had been wiretapped would be vindicated eventually. Remember all the pearl clutching after that one?
Clinton is toast. Obama and Biden are next up.

Do you just ignore whatever you want? She wasn't the only one.

And I don't think you were referring to singular examples when you brought up the word "fatal"... a real threat to democracy is a losing president who doesn't abide by it. Even his VP said so.

You talk about stuff being "fatal to Democracy" (figure out those other fatailties yet?) but the Capitol Riot stuff is ridiculous.
Had this been the reverse, you would be creating threads and quoting Daily Mail left and right, but now because it's your guy, you've lost your backbone. Stand up for your country, not your party.

You really don't see this the way I do. Look at that clip from The Sting....it sums what I think of all this politics nicely...everyone in that room is a crook and a liar but we choose who to root for and pick "good guys" and "bad guys"....THEY ALL ARE BAD!!!. Trump is no different...he is a crook amongst crooks...I don't see any real "good guys" in politics. To me it is a lot of theater so it is tantamount to entertainment on that level. Trump makes me laugh....driving the other crooks crazy.

There's the shoplifter at Target.
The people running the scoop and squat accident scams.
The Elizabeth Holmes peddling her scam.
The doctors commiting medicare fraud
and then there is John Wayne Gacy.
Technically, they're all criminals.
And it's a strawman fallacy based on false equivalence.
