I said, about the ongoing John Doe felony investigation into Walkers office at his previous government job:

So that's confusing and implies there may be something pending and coming out in the future..

What is false about that statement? Be specific. Enter the facts into the discussion.

I'll go first.

Walker, who was elected governor in 2010, hasn't been charged with any wrongdoing and has repeatedly said he's not the focus of the probe.

He disclosed in March, though, that he set up a legal defense fund using $60,000 in campaign contributions with guidance from the Government Accountability Board. State law allows such moves only if officeholders or their agents have been charged with or are under investigation for election or campaign violations.

It appears my statement is 100% correct. Walker isn't charged, but GAB allowed him to set a defense fund, that can only be set up if, quoting GAB, "you are charged with or under investigation for election or campaign violations".
