Boom. And this, as we say, is lagniappe:
The documents were unsealed as part of a lawsuit brought by the conservative group Wisconsin Club for Growth, which has been seeking to have the investigation shut down.
Looks like the Club for Growth sh1t its own bed.

Be careful what you sue for, I guess.

God, I want this asshole to fall so badly. Who from the establishment wing of the party will even be left to run except Jeb (can’t win the primary) and Romney (won’t win the primary a second time)?

The right wing never understands the law of unintended consequences. Just like in the federal cases on marriage equality. The righties demanded outright bans on same sex marriage. The Federal courts couldn’t get involved until there were unconstitutional laws on the books. The right aren’t the brightest of people…

Club for Growth is just a conduit for nonresident billionaires’ influence and money. Looks like the money folks covering their own aces took precedent over their champion trying to keep a lid on the whole thing.

Plucky, we need to have viewing parties for the Republican presidential primaries. They’re too good to watch alone or with friends who just aren’t into this at our level.
When I saw Rick Perry have that 53 second brain meltdown live, I lamented not having anyone to share in my schadenfreude.

Well, I guess we know now why Scotty’s hatchetman on the bench ordered these documents destroyed or returned.

Walker is another in a long, long line of Republican “next great hopes” to self-destruct.

Oh, this is grand. Even if he somehow is not prosecuted, he’ll never win reelection, much less run for President.
Now for that prick Ron Johnson…

One can hope. But for whatever the reasons, this guy seems to have more political lives than a cat. I fear there is going to be some serious damage among all sorts of rightie groups(and depending on how this all goes, a new investigation into a certain Federal judge that tried to order the whole thing shut down), but Walker himself is going to end up skating away

Yes indeed. Not just to save Walker’s butt, but because this thing is naming all sorts of big money people in republican circles.
