MADISON, Wis. – Democrat Milwaukee County prosecutors tapped the email and text communications of conservative activists as part of a five-year probe aimed at bringing down Republican Gov. Scott Walker, affidavits reviewed by Wisconsin Watchdog reveal.
One target of the spying operation told Wisconsin Watchdog the methods used to keep tabs on Wisconsin residents were like those of the National Security Agency’s domestic spying program.
\”It was actually worse because (Milwaukee County prosecutors) were taking the body of emails and looking at actual data,\” said the source, who asked not to be identified for fear of retribution from the prosecutors.
