If I need to purchase office equipment for a remote position can I buy and use as a deduction?

I am an employee working remote. Can I deduct purchases related to my home office? Can I get a deduction from my Mortgage for the space being used?

If you are an employee who receives a W-2 from your employer you cannot deduct any employee business expenses on a federal tax return due to the tax code changes in effect for tax years 2018 thru 2025.
