Hm.

Nobody messes with the government worker unions and gets away with it in Wisconsin. They owned the state, or at least thought they did until recently.

"We're doing a law enforcement action," one of the FBI agents told a reporter. He didn't identify himself or provide further comment

Were these real FBI agents? Or DNC. FBI are supposed to produce ID, especially when doing a raid. No doubt, Holder's people are orchestrating this.

—FBI at home of former Gov. Walker aide—

The interesting thing about headlines like this is that they cause people to subconsciously connect the FBI actions with the subject of the title, “Former Walker aide”. She is former “fill in the blank” and also currently “fill in the blank”.

This may have nothing whatsoever to do with her stint under Walker. It may have everything to do with her stint under Walker. The title just sells more papers.

I don’t care if Lady Gaga’s hamburger slipped. I’m far more concerned about her hot dog slippage.

This is a witch hunt.

After initially posting this article and highlighting the FBI involvement and allowing all the libtards that blog at the Urinal-Slantinel webpage to speculate about Governor Walker's impending arrest, the hack writers grudgingly included the portions that identify this as a continuation of a groundless John Doe investigation led by uber-liberal Milwaukee County DA John Chisholm. Chisholm was roundly criticized for his lack of investigation into filmed and documented vote-buying by liberal interest groups affillated with (but more elikely lead by) failed State Senate recall candidate Sandy Pasch. Chisholm was a major political and financial of Pasch's past campaigns. Chisholm and top aide Maistelman were angered by charges of conflicts interest leveled by conservative media.

The Urinal Slantinel NEVER covered the story.

The initial John Doe investigation focused on the heinous crimes of Walker aides acting as individuals who used county computers to post pro-Walker comments to "news stories" on the Urinal Slantinel website. The Urinal Slantinel website traced the comments back to Milwaukee County computers and "outed" the guilty Milwaukee County employees involved, contravening past policies of maintaining blogger anonymity. After it became public, the employees acknowledged their personal responsibility for misusing county equipment and were fired by Scott Walker. Both then-County Exec Scott Walker and the Walker for Governor campaign disavowed any prior knowledge or involvement.

Chisholm has been investigating this incident for nearly 18 months and has harrassed Walker and top Walker aides ever since.

This story is a HUGE nothing burger.

Just more thug tactics from Wisconsin Democrats.

This scares the pants off me. Anyone of us could be the next victim of the Democrat party thugs. Eric holder has complete control over this. He will do BHO’s bidding, rightly or wrongly.

I wouldn't worry too much, if I were you. While federal agents were used to investigate and gather evidence, this is a Milwaukee-led witch hunt. The FBI are just the hired "muscle" of the bogus local John Doe harrassment...er, I mean investigation.

We are coming very near a totalitarian state. Holder ignores crimes by Regime political allies and fabricates phony charges with which to hound ZERO’S political opponents.
