SMERSH was taken, and setting aside the word "scum" for the moment, let's try Society of Many Evil Greedy Men in Alliance (though I'm not sure the acronym works well; maybe that wouldn't be properly rated.)
Power control group sounds like a corporate committee.
We could look to the medical world and infectious immunology and find terms for disease, cancer, etc. Terms of scatology are also down the spectrum of acceptability, but that's the point: these folks are vile, despicable, bad for socio-political health and well-being, and any society (even ants) know enough to separate it out and keep it on the distant fringes of their community.
Refuse is the category, and that is how they should be treated,
"Where is the intersection between the world's deep hunger and your deep gladness?"
