3. I spoke about this with a lawyer friend.
His, and surprisingly, most lawyers rage over what has been done at the DOJ burns blue-hot to my lesser white-hot. An impartial and non-politicized DOJ was the holiest of holies to most ethical lawyers. While it would be nice to clean those people out, it won't be that easy. The maladministration knew what it was playing at and a lot of those jobs have civil service and other federal protections, protections designed exactly to stop what the maladministration was so successful at: politicization of the DOJ.

A "root and branch" cleanup is going to be harder and rerquire much more planning and strategy than just a Gary Cooper figure walking down Main Street at high noon.

Remember: what they did was the result of years of planning and strategic court decisions by toady Federalist Society judges.
