I think there's more to it than just the show. It's strategic.
Now that the show has been performed publicly they can be taken down with no (relevant) public backlash. Since Paul Rand calle dfor their security clearances to be revoked & POTUS acknowledged it, they've already implicated Renegade himself & throwing others under the bus too…All in public view.
Result: These Bad Actors get taken off the stage, (majority) public applaudes, POTUS Approval Ratings go up some more. One step closer to seeing the rest of them behind bars.
The "show" is merely the optics of the strategy. Be ready to queue up the fat lady, she's already begun warming up her vocal cords backstage.
