Mazars USA, Donald Trump's longtime accounting firm, abruptly severed ties with the former president last week amid civil and criminal investigations into the Trump Organization's finances, saying that the company financial statement could "no longer be relied upon."

The news came in a letter last Wednesday, in which Mazars alleged that it had not "as a whole" found evidence that Trump artificially inflated or deflated his assets prices for text, lending or insurances. However, the "totality of circumstances," Mazars added, make Trump's financial documents unreliable, according to The New York Times.
