- Red-state auditor reports 'explosion' of fraud tips as he targets state employees 'racking up' taxpayer waste
Nebraska State Auditor Mike Foley reports an increase in fraud complaints and is cracking down on state employees misusing taxpayer resources. His efforts have uncovered alleged misuse of state vehicles and assets, including trips to liquor stores and personal errands. The crackdown has led to a situation that Foley describes as 'uncomfortable' with Nebraska's Republican Gov. Jim Pillen.
