Trump business deductions: sketchy, normal or in-between?
Read full article: Trump business deductions: sketchy, normal or in-between?A key question is whether those deductions reported by The New York Times were excessive and possibly illegal; they enabled Trump to avoid millions of dollars in taxes.

Austin, who is Black, said Trump's law-and-order message is code for increased law enforcement aiming to โmake white people feel safe, but it is a direct threat to Black and brown communities,โ she said.
