Let's assume that Bu$hCo wanted to get rid of Carol Lam in SD, on the grounds that she was uncovering way too much wrong doing on the parts of the Repugs, the (mis)Administration, and its various appointees in various agencies (notably, with Lam, the neutered CIA.) Now, just firing her would be WAY too obvious, even for these bozos, so a cover needed to be arranged. Instead of just Lam, why not fire a BUNCH of USAs, so that, even as unlikely as it must have seemed to them, there was some pushback, it wasn't obvious that they were just targeting her.
Of course, the problem was that given the number of USAs fired, someone was bound to squawk, and given that Lam was one of them, people would be bound to take notice. But no problem. All the Congressional committees were firmly in Repug hands. Ooops.
Along comes November and all bets are off. Fur flies, lies are told, and suddenly, the protection is gone. Now, they're covering up the cover-up; these fuckwads can barely do arithmetic, and now they're forced to perform political calculus.
All this is supposition, but to my feverswamp-fevered mind, it makes a certain sense.
