No way The only actor that should be considered is John Hamm who plays the part of Don Draper in "Mad Men" on AMC. The guy is a dead ringer for Issa.

In the midst of a fiery floor debate over contempt proceedings for Attorney General Eric Holder, House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) quietly dropped a bombshell letter into the Congressional Record.
The May 24 letter to Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), ranking member on the panel, quotes from and describes in detail a secret wiretap application that has become a point of debate in the GOP’s “Fast and Furious” gun-walking probe.
The wiretap applications are under court seal, and releasing such information to the public would ordinarily be illegal. But Issa appears to be protected by the Speech or Debate Clause in the Constitution, which offers immunity for Congressional speech, especially on a chamber’s floor.
According to the letter, the wiretap applications contained a startling amount of detail about the operation, which would have tipped off anyone who read them closely about what tactics were being used.
Holder and Cummings have both maintained that the wiretap applications did not contain such details and that the applications were reviewed narrowly for probable cause, not for whether any investigatory tactics contained followed Justice Department policy.
The wiretap applications were signed by senior DOJ officials in the department’s criminal division, including Deputy Assistant Attorney General Jason Weinstein, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Kenneth Blanco and another official who is now deceased.

They have not recovered thousands, that number came from the gun dealer’s reports of inquiry. The ones that were recovered were dropped from the hands of the guys using them when they were ventilated and proceeded to assume desert temperature.
I gather that the DOJ was doing wiretapping, but who were the targets of the wiretaps?
True, however he could legally avoid being remanded to a Mexican authority.
However, trafficking arms to drug cartels in rebellion against the legitimate Mexican government is an act of war for a national official of his rank, and that is a violation of International Law.
