What sort of measures would the US military take to control Party policy?

up and down the pyramid of the Democratic Party, what sort of interactions do you think our military/intelligence
chooses to have with various strata? Elected officials, party players etc?
kickbacks? blackmail? security perks? contracts?
absolute control?
we already know how they do the hoi polloi.
I suppose they can be trusted to turn themselves loose on the world,
when they feel its appropriate.
