MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Milwaukee County officials say they don't plan another mass release of emails collected in the John Doe investigation into Gov. Scott Walker's aides and associates when he was county executive.
County attorney Paul Bargren says in a letter Wednesday to The Associated Press that more than 29 gigabytes of documents were released as ordered by a judge between August and December. The AP and other news organizations reviewed hundreds of thousands of documents during that time.....

If you don't know about the "John Doe investigation" that has been ongoing in WI here is the place to find out.
Nov 5, 2014 [174-part investigative articles linked at end of story] Voters say yes to Walker, no to John Doe, law expert says - "MADISON, Wis. Gov. Scott Walkers big re-election win Tuesday wasnt just a victory for conservative principles and for Walkers national prospects in 2016. It was a vindication for the rule of law, according to one national legal expert.
William A. Jacobson, Cornell University Law School professor and publisher of Legal Insurrection, an online publication, said Walkers 7-point defeat of Democratic challenger Mary Burke, was a voter repudiation of the never-ending partisan John Doe investigations into Walkers campaign scores of the Republican governors conservative allies.
For four years liberal Wisconsin prosecutors have waged an all-out taxpayer funded witch hunt to try and silence and ultimately destroy Walker and conservative groups who support his pro-growth, pro-reform policies, Jacobson said in a statement released Tuesday evening.
Led by Democratic Milwaukee District Attorney John Chisholm, prosecutors launched a politicized probe to try and build a case around Walker and his allies for campaign improprieties. Marked by pre-dawn, SWAT-style raids on homes, the probe has turned up nothing except frightened families and children.
Tonight Wisconsin rejected this assault on free speech, Jacobson said.".....
Feb 20, 2015 - Conservative groups ask U.S. Supreme Court to defend rights of John Doe targets " - MADISON, Wis. The John Doe investigation into dozens of conservative groups and Gov. Scott Walkers campaign is sinister, causing irreparable harm, even to those right-of-center organizations not targeted in the secret probe.
Thats the assessment of the Wisconsin-based John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy in a motion filed Friday in U.S. Supreme Court.
MacIver is requesting to file an amicus, or friend of the court, brief in support of conservative targets of the politically charged probe who say they want to hold John Doe prosecutors officially and personally accountable for an abusive and overreaching investigation that violated their First Amendment rights.
Other limited government groups also filed amicus briefs Friday, including the Center for Competitive Politics, the Cato Institute, the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty and the Cause of Action Institute.
It is hard to imagine a more chilling impact than what the MacIver Institute experienced as a consequence of (the prosecutors) acts, writes Madison-area attorney Jim Troupis, whose firm is representing MacIver.
The free market think tank wasnt, to the best of its executives knowledge, targeted by Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm and his fellow prosecutors in the probe that has alleged possible illegal coordination between dozens of conservative groups and Walkers campaign during Wisconsins partisan recall season of 2011-12.
But the fear, the omnipresent shadow of the Democrat-led investigation, curtailed MacIvers speech and conservative advocacy, the request before the Supreme Court asserts. The extensive informational work MacIver did on Act 10, Walkers signature reforms to the states public sector collective bargaining laws, in 2011 and 2012, disappeared in 2014 following reports of paramilitary-style raids on the homes and offices of conservative targets in October 2013."...............
Liberals-Socialists seldom win in the arena of ideas and more often then not quickly resort to name calling, lying and slinging dirt, thats what thy are good at. If they would put just as much time and effort in to constructive ideas they may get some where and actually help and improve the lifes of their constituencies. But in order to do so they have to be a little brighter than most of them are.
And that is why they hate conservatives. They hate you because you are killers of their dream. Because you are defenders of a Constitution that thwarts their cause. They hate you because your "reactionary" commitment to individual rights, to a single standard and to a neutral and limited state obstructs their progressive designs. They hate you because you are believers in property and its rights as the cornerstones of prosperity and human freedom; because you do not see the market economy as a mere instrument for acquiring personal wealth and political war chests, to be overcome in the end by bureaucratic schemes.
Conservatives who think progressives are misinformed idealists will forever be blind-sided by the malice of the leftby the cynicism of those who pride themselves on principle, by the viciousness of those who champion sensitivity, by the intolerance of those who call themselves liberal, and by the ruthless disregard for the well-being of the downtrodden by those who preen themselves as social saints.
Conservatives are caught by surprise because they see progressives as merely misguided, when in fact they are fundamentally misdirected. They are the messianists of a religious faith. But it is a false faith and a self-serving religion. Since the redeemed future that justifies their existence and rationalizes their hypocrisy can never be realized, what really motivates progressives is a modern idolatry: their limitless passion for the continuance of Them." -- David Horowitz - June 2000
The rules:
1. Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have. Power is derived from 2 main sources money and people. Have-Nots must build power from flesh and blood.
2. Never go outside the expertise of your people. It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
3. Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy. Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
4. Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
5. Ridicule is mans most potent weapon. There is no defense. Its irrational. Its infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
6. A good tactic is one your people enjoy. Theyll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. Theyre doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Dont become old news.
8. Keep the pressure on. Never let up. Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
10. If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive. Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
11. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Never let the enemy score points because youre caught without a solution to the problem.
12. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions
Walker Would End Campus Rape Reports
This is the real headline:
Headline quote from Scott Walker's site: Our American Revival
An excellent book worthwhile to read by David Horowitz “Radical Son” It took a while for him to wake up, but wake up he did.
He knows his subject!
This is clearly barratry the bringing of false charges for political purposes. What now happens to the perpetrators. Dismissal fines ?
Good questions.
The “false charges” and “throw it against the wall” approach, which was heavily relied upon by the “Clinton Clowns” during their era, proved successful back then. With todays technology and multitude of ways to record and recall every fart or burp any politician makes is truly an asset when/if said politician is innocent of such charges. Fortunately, the records on Walker have proven he was/is indeed innocent. It was not Walker who did the deed, as I recall it was one of his aids who, has since been dealt with. Walker will have to deal with this crap until Nov. 2016 as those who fear him will do what ever, say what ever or suggest what ever they can to derail his road to the presidency. Mark my words (or record them for future referral)
He talks about it in this last debate during the recall election. The entire debate is worth watching - it shows how Walker handles these creeps.

June 27, 2011: Walker Revokes In-state Tuition For Undocumented Students Attending Univ And Colleges In Wisconsin "- On Sunday, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R) signed his two-year 2011-2013 budget, which included ending in-state tuition for undocumented students attending public universities and colleges. In-state tuition for undocumented students was approved two years ago by former Governor Jim Doyle (D) after the Hispanic community struggled for 10 years to pass it."...
March 2015:We strongly dispute this account. Governor Walker has been very clear that he does not support amnesty and believes that border security must be established and the rule of law must be followed. His position has not changed, he does not support citizenship for illegal immigrants, and this story line is false, she announced in an email to journalists Thursday afternoon.
I made it clear that for me, if somebody wants to be a citizen, they need to go back to their country of origin, get in line, no preferential treatment, Walker said. In terms of what to do beyond that, again, thats something we got to work with Congress on.
Cindy Archer, one of the lead architects of Wisconsins Act 10 also called the Wisconsin Budget Repair Bill, it limited public-employee benefits and altered collective-bargaining rules for public-employee unions was jolted awake by yelling, loud pounding at the door, and her dogs frantic barking. The entire house the windows and walls was shaking.
She looked outside to see up to a dozen police officers, yelling to open the door. They were carrying a battering ram.
She wasnt dressed, but she started to run toward the door, her body in full view of the police. Some yelled at her to grab some clothes, others yelled for her to open the door.
I was so afraid, she says. I did not know what to do. She grabbed some clothes, opened the door, and dressed right in front of the police. The dogs were still frantic.
I begged and begged, Please dont shoot my dogs, please dont shoot my dogs, just dont shoot my dogs. I couldnt get them to stop barking, and I couldnt get them outside quick enough. I saw a gun and barking dogs. I was scared and knew this was a bad mix.
She got the dogs safely out of the house, just as multiple armed agents rushed inside. Some even barged into the bathroom, where her partner was in the shower. The officer or agent in charge demanded that Cindy sit on the couch, but she wanted to get up and get a cup of coffee.
I told him this was my house and I could do what I wanted. Wrong thing to say. This made the agent in charge furious. He towered over me with his finger in my face and yelled like a drill sergeant that I either do it his way or he would handcuff me.
They wouldnt let her speak to a lawyer. She looked outside and saw a person who appeared to be a reporter. Someone had tipped him off."............
