IG does investigate DOJ lawyers - fast and furious was case in point.

As was Gonzales & classified info, as I pointed out. But don't you think there'll be a push to OPR as there was w/torture memos, etc?
-
Sure. Usually if it's going to come back highly critical, atty will opt to resign. But IG technically does investigate. Horowitz did F&F.
-
Does Sessions' behavior here count as lawyering or not? And how does Margolis' passing affect things?
-
Yes Sessions counts as a lawyer. Margolis' death hurt in Oct b/c he couldn't help guide Comey. And is gaping hole now. No one has his heft.
-
One my many jobs is to be very skeptical of Margolis' role in DOJ, and of whether his role did anything to make DOJ more ethical.
-
Meaning he was ethical. Could have not cared more deeply and heartfelt about the integrity of the Dept. and its reputation as above politics
-
Impossible for outsider to square the outcome of the Yoo/Bradbury OPR investigation w/understanding that Margolis led to ethical decisions
