Reporter multiple cars drove right into this construction ditch outside of this Convenience Store and bait shop on west 130th in cleveland. Its part of a big repaving project. Nothing wasnt blocked, so i tried going in there, and i ended up in a ditch. Reporter one day after, the construction ceo wrote this on the drivers saying we installed drums pursuant to all applicable laws and regulations adding to the extent that a driver was not paying attention is unfortunate, however, it was not the result of any ill legality or failure by our company.

Jobs, trade, and trump are expected to be the topics of the debate for the third and final matchup prior to the november election. Look for strickland to be the one to hit on trade.

The unprecedented amount is his record. Thats the facts. Thats because more taxes and regulation doesnt work. Reporter for both candidates to weigh in like they did last week on donald trump.

Ron regan, you are breaking down what they uncovered during the first two senate debates. Were looking at statements from both candidates, and we begin with rob portman. One of the most contested comments centered around how much hes made since he left the governors office. Reporter after the 350,000 jobs left, he left the state. He went to washington d. C. And so he wasnt living on minimum wage, but he was working against the interests of ohio. The senator said that i made 400,000. Oh, senator, thats a big whopper. Ive never made 400,000 in my life. Okay, heres what we found when we looked into stricklands earnings. After losing reelection, strickland began working for the center for american 200,000 between april 2014 and march 2015. So how did portman come up with that 400,000 figure . Well, we looked at all of stricklands income and found strickland headed up a Political Action fund for that think tank. It lisTed Stricklands other compensation as 13,623,000 for the nine months of 2013. If you do the math, that brings his compensation for. Whole then he disclosed 20,000 in earnings from the bipartisan policy center. He was also paid 25,000 for working as a mediator with a law firm. Strickland also collected 36,700 from his state retirement and 25,500 from an i. R. A. , plus hes eligible for a congressional pension, which we estimate to be about 33,000 a year. Now, all of 357, 489. Strickland 357,489. If you subtract that total, he earned 295,000. So as a result, we rank portmans statement as half true.

Reporter david says, the problem accordg feeling, trumps First Foundation contributed to private charities and other private foundations, something the irs strictly forbids unless trumps foundation provides the irs with proof that the money was used for charity. It can keep on going to any number of private foundations and never help charity out at all. Reporter we reviewed ten years of the foundations latest publicly available tax returns.
