MJS and DHS Gang Up To Slam Walker

Mark Belling broke this story this afternoon.  He obtained a series of emails between state DHS employees and Steve Schultz, a reporter for the MJS.  In the emails, it is pretty clear that not only are DHS officials taking political considerations into account as they move to take over a Milwaukee County department, but they are also coordinating the effort with Steve Schultz to try to do it in a way to paint Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker in the worst light possible. 

Couple comments…

1) Steve Schultz has disgraced himself.

2) It’s very clear that the state’s actions have everything to do with politics - specifically the upcoming governor’s race - and not with serving the people of Wisconsin.
