In Wisconsin, dozens of conservative groups and allies of Gov. Scott Walker are undergoing political intimidation from the left at the hands of a special prosecutor.
Subpoenas have been issued demanding correspondence and donor information of right-leaning organizations and individuals and raids have been conducted resulting in law enforcement officers taking computers and files in a secret investigation, according to reports.
“In recent weeks, special prosecutor Francis Schmitz has hit dozens of conservative groups with subpoenas demanding documents related to the 2011 and 2012 campaigns to recall Governor Walker and state legislative leaders,” the Wall Street Journal writes.

Sounds like the lefties are going to the playbook of NAZI Germany...
Too bad FR isn’t as activist as Anonymous and 4Chan are or else we’d go after this ‘special prosecutor’ and expose every last one of HIS secrets to the world.
Being done as research using tax dollars by the lefties. Article about this (from watchdog.org):

topher (Chris?);
It sounds like this guy is even worse than McCann and Seraphim rolled into one!
It’s time to take this to a new level with baseball bats and tire irons.
The left are bullies and everyone knows how to properly stop a bully: kick their ass!
Hey Freepers, it’s coming close to election time. We all know the demodummies tactics of slinging as much dirt as they can PRIOR to elections to downgrade ANY of their political opponents, Clinton’s were masters at it. Just saying things MIGHT BE illegal is all they need and will keep saying it until the election is over. When someone is as successful as Walker has been in “keeping the rain of his back” so to speak, the opposition HAS to come up with something and this is one of their plans.
I will be ever so greatful to my Lord when this backfires and the demodummies are OUT.
Maybe Texas should watch this closely and go reciprocal on socialist in the Lone Star state. Playing fair while the pinkos get nasty is getting old. Very old.
These are just the democrats .. move along .. nothing to see here.
THESE SNAKES HAVE GONE TOO FAR.
This tells you how freightened the dems are of the 2014/2016 elections of more and more repubs, and how it will include more and more of the tearing down of the unions .. the dems funding organization.
Plus, Scott has been rumored as a candidate for 2016 .. really scaring the dems.
Poor things!
Based on the last Scott Walker thread, there are a few FReepers would would gladly join them...
I’ll Stand with Walker any day!
lol
too far?
It’s not too far if nobody stops them.
I’d say the Governor has a pretty good bully pulpit - AND the legal apparatus of a State behind him.
Two can play that game.
Well .. it’s always “too far” if it’s illegal (which this is); whether or not anybody has the guts to do anything about it.
However, I wouldn’t count the Governor out just yet.
By what authority? Can’t Walker order law enforcement to ignore the orders?
The way the Milw. county attorney is conducting this investigation in secret, people who speak out like Mr. O’Keefe may go to jail.
Only republicans are the targets...funny that eh?
It isn’t funny when the Governor stands by and let’s this guy get away with it.
Has the Democrat party got their own gestapo in Wisconsin?
Conservative homes raided; subpoenae issued in Dem probe of Scott Walker supporters (Francis Schmidt)
FReep mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
And they called Us Mc Carthists...
this is similar to what the irs did...trolling for info on Tea party activists then handing that info over to leftwing groups.
