The Trump Organization will face a criminal investigation regarding its financial dealings surrounding a New York golf course.

The Westchester County district attorney's office has subpoenaed records from Trump National Golf Club Westchester and the town of Ossining, which determines property taxes for the course, The New York Times reported.

The Times reported that the investigation will focus on whether the Trump Organization misled officials regarding the course's value in an effort to pay less taxes on the property.

I grew up thinking we would fight the Soviet Union, not become them.

Because no one from the town’s assessors office could possibly just drive over and look at a golf course to check its valuation.

One more reason property taxes shouldn’t exist.

They’re an artifact of feudalism.

Excise taxes only.

Is this county tax assessor's office so damn stupid that they let property owners determine their own property values for tax purposes? LOL.

He paid his taxes in strict accordance with the law, but faces accusations that it wasn't enough and he should have paid more because Trump.

Basically, that is the gist of all the tax investigations of Trump.

So he has good lawyers looking into saving him money in a legal way. So what?

NYC apparently has it in for the Trump family. I heard that The posh of the city have shunned Ivanka, that I know. Even people she thought were her friends.

I don’t know about Don Jr. or Eric. But they probably get the same treatment.

Trump is not the president. Why not look into Biden and his family???

Is there a single Freeper who doubts that at least one criminal indictment...probably Federal,or from the State of New York...will be handed down against the President in the next 18 months? Early 2023 would be my guess...and I'd guess it would be from Albany,NYC,Westchester County or Nassau County.

Once again with the real estates values thing - if Trump says the property is worth $20 million and the county says it’s worth $25 million, the county has the final say.
If Trump says to a potential lender that he thinks the property is worth $30 Million, it is up to the bank to determine the final value of the property approving a loan.

It’s called lawfare. It’s a tax-payer funded attack against the left’s enemies. Hope you enjoy the bill.

It is as if no one in the country other than a select few tries to pay as little taxes as possible. Where have these people been?

It’s the assessors job to come up with a value. Trump is rich and doesn’t have to cheat...what BS.

so they just took Trump’s word on the value? are you friggin kiddin me??

they have an ARMY of assessors and they dint do their job???

i don’t think so.

go into a NY-DMV to register a car you say it was given to you(bill of sale says gift) the FIRST thing they do is get the Kelly Blue Book page up for your make/model and THEY will determine the tax you’ll pay to register it.
