It is typical political machine corruption 101. Those in power use everything in their power to keep power. The use of government agencies to punish rivals and political enemies. The use of government contracts to reward and attract powerful friends. It is basically organized crime, and when they get on top of power, and put in their people at the places that are suppose to do oversight, it is hard to get them out of power. They appoint the FBI director, they appoint the attorney general, they appoint judges. It is an extreme danger to freedom.
