How could Morning Joe today not ask Scott Walker about that criminal investigation in WI?
This news didn't just break over the weekend.


Will Secret Wisconsin Probe Lead Back to Walker?
By Tim Mak, Politico
26 September 11


The 'secret probe' refers to a 'John Doe' investigation which allows investigators to issue subpoenas and gather testimony from witnesses without revealing the probe's target. -- JPS/RSN Editor's comment


A criminal investigation has shaken Wisconsin political circles and touched off speculation that Gov. Scott Walker may be in its sights, according to numerous reports.

Wisconsin's Republican governor rose to national prominence after his election in 2010 based on his public confrontations with unions over collective bargaining rights.

The so-called "John Doe" investigation is a secret proceeding in which witnesses can be subpoenaed and required to testify under oath, but are forbidden from talking publicly about the probe or its target.

Walker, whose campaign has hired a lawyer, has said in the past that he has not been personally contacted by investigators. He appeared Monday on MSNBC's Morning Joe but was not asked about the probe.

2. I don't give a shit who asks him about it as long as it keeps going.
Ideally this asshole and his INFUCKINGSANE Lt Gov will be arrested, charged and scheduled for trial before we can get recall petitions filed and save us the bullshit. He's dirty and I hope everyone keeps their mouths shut and makes a solid case.

13. Yup, Joe brings you the stars, but only on a social get-together basis. No hard questions allowed.
Or else Walker would head to the Today Show where he could serve as a judge in a "best breakfast croissant" contest.

He's been on there at least twice maybe three times. I've never watched it but I hear it mentioned on DU. WTF??
