Lara is very smart and very poised, and she greatly admires her father-in-law. That would be a bunch of political finery to unpack, and while the Republicans have plenty of talent at this point, Lara would would be a welcome addition.

Mayorkas blatantly violated our immigration laws and effectively engaged in treason. He was in cahoots with the human smuggling cartels in Mexico and made them a fortune. He needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Whatley is a swamp rat, and so are all of the congress members mentioned except Harrigan. Lara would be better than most of the names mentioned. I could still go with Harrington or Don Brown.
