Which office do I go to get my reputation back? -- former Labor Secretary Ray Donovan.
But under our system of justice there is a place where an individual can go to seek redress and accountability for accusations that destroy reputation.
------------------------------------------------------- As you well know, the law provides that republishers of unsubstantiated, false accusations are liable for such accusations even when initially made by others if they republish those accusations with a reckless disregard for truth or falsity. Since at least 1896, our courts have recognized the legal maxim that talebearers are as bad as talemakers in the eyes of the law
Your list is long. NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The New York Times, USA Today, The New Yorker, and the parade of individuals of all stripes who cannot resist the lure of the bright lights and cameras to echo and validate your accusers in the media. And to restore some public faith in our profession, include on your list a lawyer named Michael Avenatti, who has abused and demeaned you and our system of justice for personal publicity, fame, and fortune.

Just become the most extreme conservative Supreme Court Justice ever. Make the liberals cry and wail. Make them hurt forever. And mention to historians that they drove you to being an extreme conservative, and that if they had not worked so hard to destroy your reputation the outcome might have more lenient decisions. Give liberals butthurt!
Prosecute McLean for witness tampering.
It looks like the ones Kavanaugh really needs to go after would be some that are pretty much untouchable & yet are the the chief offenders. I tend to agree that something needs to be done about this especially considering the way it could affect future nominees,but not sure what the real answer is. I guess they could run a survey for “suggested punishment based on voter opinions”. I have some in mind I’d like to see enacted.
I don't believe in an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I believe in taking out ten eyes for an eye, and ten teeth for a tooth. If I were Kavanaugh, I would be a hard-line strict conservative and not teeter on the fence for any decision. Go after liberals with court decisions and make them suffer.
