The Democrat party has three main factions vying for control. One of them is the Biden family. Another consists of down-ballot Democrat office-holders. The third one is composed of the intelligence agency heads, leaders of the dark state. There is also a fourth faction. ...
The Biden family is a massive business that produces nothing except corrupt political influence. It is exemplified in Joe Biden’s laughing boast that he successfully coerced the Ukrainian government to fire its prosecutor, who was exposing the crimes of Hunter Biden. Hunter was a highly paid board member of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma. Hunter Biden has zero expertise in the energy industry and contributed nothing of value to Burisma. Joe Biden threatened Ukraine by promising to withhold a billion dollars in U.S. aid unless its prosecutor was promptly dismissed from his job. He was. Joe Biden publicly laughed, saying, “Well, son of a b----.” It’s on video.
...
The third faction is exemplified by the fifty-one intelligence agency heads who signed a letter falsely insinuating that Trump is the favored candidate of the Russian dictatorship. They successfully deceived much of the voting public in the 2020 election and are credited with handing Biden the White House.
Because they operate in secret, the intelligence agencies (which include the FBI and the CIA) have enormous powers, both constitutional and otherwise. As Democrat Chuck Schumer famously warned, if you cross the agencies, they have “six ways from Sunday” of getting you. It is not an idle threat. The intelligence agencies have lethal weapons at their disposal, and they operate with impunity when their self-interest is credibly threatened. It is no mere conspiracy theory to characterize them as the puppeteers of government.
Make no mistake: the dark state will not tolerate any serious imposition on its power. None.

Lot more than that........
There are two.
Deep State.
And patriots.
That’s it.
Unlike a constitutional government, there are no definite rules of succession.
The power of the Leviathan is not defined; it has no rules.
This is a subject for study.
