Protecting Mueller and his investigation and allow the truth to eventually seep out....or to watch Trump fire Rosenstein and Mueller, unleashing a tsunami of legal and political consequences that would probably boggle our minds....not to mention that our IC may seek retribution by leaking information that otherwise would have remained under cover until Mueller's reports were unveiled.

I think Mueller may have a lot of this on autopilot if Trump is foolish enough to dump him midstream.
