Michael Flynn could recoup 'millions' with civil lawsuit, DC attorney says

An appellate attorney in Washington, D.C., said retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn has a strong case to recoup his legal costs from the federal government after the case, which has now been dropped by the Justice Department, left him in financial ruin.

Flynn, who served as President Trump’s first national security adviser for less than a month, pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to the FBI about his conversations with a Russian diplomat before Trump entered the White House. But after firing his lawyers from Covington & Burlington, Flynn hired a new team led by former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell who fought the charges against Flynn, declared his innocence in January, and claimed he was set up by the FBI.

Flynn's new defense team said he was pressured to make the guilty plea to protect his son, Michael Flynn Jr., from being charged by the FBI for matters related to the younger Flynn’s dealings in Turkey.

Covington & Burlington charged Flynn over $6 million in legal fees, Powell confirmed to the Washington Examiner. Flynn’s legal and financial woes forced him to place his Old Town Alexandria home on the market for an asking price of $895,000 in late 2017.

Unfortunately those millions won't replace the damage done to his credibility and his reputation by the Democrats.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

I hope he recoups everything that he lost + damages and he becomes a multi-multi millionaire and is set for life, never having to work again. 
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
