After a jury found former Reagan administration Labor Secretary Raymond J. Donovan innocent of politically motivated fraud charges in a case that dragged on for four years, costing him his job and much of his fortune, he famously asked: “Which office do I go to to get my reputation back?” Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, who underwent a similar ordeal, must be wondering the same thing.
Donovan was charged in September 1984, conveniently just before the presidential election. If those who brought the charges thought they would ruin Republican Ronald Reagan’s reelection chances, they were very wrong. Reagan carried 49 states

Screw reputation. Get him his money back first. The $8 million Comey got for a book deal is a good place to start!

Or No. 2 . . . FBI Director. As the old statement goes . . . to which office does he go to get his home, his money, his reputation back?

When it has been wrongfully taken away, as in this case, I do not believe one loses it. And that headline is a really, really tired cliche.

I agree #5. The opinions of deluded leftists don’t matter. That said, he still needs to sue the bad actors personally and into oblivion.

Among those who know him - he never lost it. To those who believe CNN - he'll never recover it. But I agree - more than recovering reputation he needs to be made financially whole - and then some. Not from we taxpayers - but from the personal resources of those who tried to destroy him.

I don't see that he's lost his reputation. He's a decorated "3-Star" who served his country honorably for many years. THAT is his reputation. This drummed up scam to sully him in my mind means nothing. He was framed, and that does nothing to impugn his reputation.

His reputation in the long run, hasn't suffered. Anyone who has been targeted by liberals is a martyr and a hero worthy of respect. The question is: How does he get his property back? And who will receive just punishment for the crime of his persecution.
I'm willing to bet that these creeps are insulated by democrat written laws that do not permit the unjustly persecuted from coming back at them. Wouldn't it be a different world if that was different?

We never stopped believing in him .My goodness he is the real deal , an authentic patriot . Compare & contrast to the puffy face vindman , the slug who needed the uniform & every medal in the cereal box to look like human . He is worthy of high position and doubly so because of smidgen’s fear & hatred of this man is personal .

Will he sue anybody? I hope he can recover some money. It seems as if his first attorneys were incompetent.

Taking the democrats who participated in this destruction to court and draining their bank accounts should do for a start. The media is still deliberately ignoring the fact that his own attorneys cooked up a secret deal with the prosecutor and did not inform their client that his son was not in any danger. Makes me wonder how much the Swamp would have taken a hit if Sydney Powell the legal tigress had been his attorney from the start.

Sue the book deal writing perps then go after the jug eared Smidgen and make him your personal house servant fetching you coffee. Like Bill Clinton would say, "in another time the likes of Obama would be serving coffee on a tray to his masters."

His "reputation" with the MSM will never come back. One look at the delusional comments on many sites and you realize the Left will never accept that Flynn was framed by the Obama administration. The Democrats adhere to the Clinton tactic of never, ever admitting you lied and were in the wrong, and their sheep-like followers accept every rationalization no matter how much it flies in the face of obvious truth.

Unfortunately, he has to wait for the judge to let this go, the judge that essentially called him a traitor. Will the judge apologize? It would be a good start. The judge could certainly say he was mislead but that doesn't make what he did OK. The handwriting of the fraud was on the wall for a while now. Was the judge blind? Was he incurious?
Then, Flynn has to go back to court to sue, sue, sue. The government for an illegal investigation and prosecution and withholding evidence. Individuals who set it up. His previous attorneys who colluded with the government illegally. I'd start at $30 million.

If Gen Flynn is so inclined, the civil case of Flynn vs Comey et al (including his former incompetent lawyers ) for abuse of process and poor counsel should be pretty much a slam dunk. The US government will probably be a defendant as well. Plaintiffs Exhibit #1 should be that yuk yuk interview at the 92nd St Y where Comey was joking on how he framed Flynn. I expect Sidney Powell will become one of the wealthiest lawyers in the USA off the contingency fees.

It's the time and money lost. What about his home and everything else he had to give up ? Some people should be put in stocks as punishment and we can all go by and kick the stuff out of them.
