More details to this question:
I live in Wisconsin, Sunday night I was on my way home from work and got pulled over. I have a suspended license, I got ticketed and went home. Monday night I stopped at a gas station passing two cops who had someone stopped. They pulled in behind my parking spot came up to my window and said "so I hear you have no license". Is that legal? I did nothing wrong (besides driving) they ticketed me and I went to drive home and a different cop pulled me back over and said "you couldn't just walk home? This one was there the first time and went and sat on a road to my house. Probably based off my address, is this legal?

You should not be driving if you do not have a valid operator's license. If the police run your plates through their computer and the info regarding your license is given to them, they can stop you. Driving without a license in itself is illegal and a reason for the police to stop you and in many cases repeat offenses carriy criminal penalties.
