North Dakota’s Political Alarm Over Lane of Townley Leaders
The document alleges in detail that North Dakota leaders have doubled taxes, removed bond limits, redirected $35 million in public funds into a state bank, and entrusted it to a former livery-stable owner, while hiding accounts from the state auditor.
