Tbh I'm kinda hoping that Leo was pretty much gimped in his role by the council, making himself pretty much a token Faunus, leader in name only... until Salem approached him and started off just killing his political enemies who made his life hell and actually had power, killing any human undersecretaries that were in reality doing his job for him instead, etc. Then after killing half his staff and higher-ups(gimping the Mistral ruling body)  she got the rest of his co-operation by convincing him it was either work with her, be killed by her, or squeal and be killed by his allies for treason.

This would make Haven itself a perfect target for the WF, a school that harbors the most racist of practices while pretending at equality... but I don't hold much hope the writers thought of it or that they can pull off actual evidence of it, as they passed up the most sensible time to show it
