WASHINGTON – Mazars USA, the longtime accounting firm for former President Donald Trump that cut ties with him and his family business this year, has begun turning over documents related to his financial dealings to Congress.
After a yearslong legal fight, the House Oversight Committee has received a first trove of documents from the firm, which recently entered into a legal settlement agreeing to produce a range of financial documents from several years before Trump took office and during his early presidency.
Mazars said in February it could no longer stand behind a decade of annual financial statements it had prepared for the Trump Organization.
More tranches of documents are expected to follow.
"They have sent us a number of documents," Rep. Carolyn Maloney, DN.Y., chair of the committee, said Saturday. "We're reviewing them."
Maloney declined to say exactly what documents the panel had received so far, but she said that "Mazars is being very cooperative."
"We are the only committee that has gotten financial documents," she added.
The documents Mazars is providing Congress concern Trump's financial dealings from 2014-18. He took office in 2017 after a career in real estate and other businesses.

So much for the 4th amendment.
When will the Biden family accounting firm do the same thing? I suspect NEVER, because the gop establishment won’t even bother looking into the Biden crime family.
On what like of legal action was this based? What is specifically being alleged?
Which will be leked to the NY Slimes in 3...2...1
Its parent company is French, isn’t it?
Nuff said.
Wonder if the Biden’s kept documents related to ALL their financial dealings?.
And the “no longer stands behind statements”? That's BS, too. Financial statements can only be attested to by an INDEPENDENT accountant. If the accountant is charged, then he is no longer independent, and therefore must disclaim any independent opinion.
It does NOT mean the the accountant is saying the statements are incorrect, and the firm has said that.
This is sleazy, misleading reporting by complete lying scumbags.
That firm needs to be sued out of existence. When they “cut ties” with Trump, those documents were no long theirs to dispose of.
Imagine what this kind of scrutiny would do for Clinton, Obama, Biden and McConnell. It’s an absolute joke. There has been no president more honest than Trump and no more bigger crooks in the country than those other DS scum. The DC political class is the lowest of low life forms.
The were leaned on. Hard.
Was there not a ‘non disclosure agreement’ between Trump and this outfit?
The House Pro-American Activities Committee must be very pleased.
yeah, the trump organization was audited every year for years.
Trump would have been planning to run for president for over 20 years. the instant a man thinks that—he’s also going to know that his finances are going to come under intense scrutiny. therefor he’ll do everything he can to make his accounting squeaky clean.
its unlikely that the dems will turn up anything.
The Mazars must be dirty and the Committee has gotten something and put the hard squeeze on them to get the docs. Seems the Committee had nothing else to go on.
By some measures there are over 100,000 federal laws and regulations. I don’t care who you are. You could be the most honest, ethical, and careful person in the world. You’re going to run afoul of at least one of them sooner or later.
So if they want to find something on Trump, they’ll certainly be successful. What happens after that is anyone’s guess.
One thinks you might be referring to Joseph McCarthy’s “UN-American Activities Committee”?
That’s a question.
<>"it's likely the the dems will make up something.<>"
can’t wait for President Trump 47 to do this to joe and hunter ...
They sound like a bunch of accounting JSixers. I hope people that deal with them are watching what they are doing to President Trump. They don’t believe in privacy at that craphole. If you’re a politician, they want to make sure the Communist DemonRATS have the names of everyone you deal with.
