Basic Washington Conspiracy Faire
The problem with the series main argument is Washington DC literally has 100s of these organizations all over the area and many people belong to a multitude of these organizations. So there are a lot of this person knows this person etc. The ADA next door to the C street house probably has a bigger effect on the average American than these people. If they are so powerful why did a senator and a Governor affiliated with them have to leave their offices after minor scandal? The series never really shows any big results from all their activities, just how politicians went along with The Family for their benefit. Whole series feels like a red herring for the people actually calling the shots ,seriously the guy who wrote the book is walking around in public, no real all powerful organization is going to let the book happen, let alone a TV series Pharmaceutical companies have a 1,000 times more influence than a few religious people.
