#1 Strzok's departure marks the only known exit among Mueller's principal team

Because he was the only real cop in Mueller's team?

#2 Strzok got tired of looking for unicorns?

#3 When a stint in HR is more appealing than a "Yuge" (and potentially career-making) case, well...

#4 Strzok is renowned as a counterintelligence specialist. He transferred to 'human resources'.

I suspect his skills will be required elsewhere.

#5 Could this have been a demotion because he didn't play along?

#7 Seems likely to me that Strzok was removed from the probe because he was not willing to follow orders, but Mueller did not want to take a PR hit by firing him, so he was transferred to somewhere in hopes he would quit. All the players are probably legally bound by non-disclosure laws.

#8 Follow non disclosure laws??? Surly you jest. And don't call me Shirley.

#9 If you get moved into HR, it's punishment.

#10 HR strikes me as an interesting place to find those who have been misbehaving -- they have all the personnnel files.

#11 I have seen that is a significant promotion up the bureaucratic org chart for Strzok. It could be a good fit if he had already sold his soul.
