May I add a "(C)" to your list?

"The goal of the empire is to be able to topple governments and dominate the globe without incurring a negative perception among the inhabitants of the US and its client states. It has been doing this with a combination of (A) shifting to more "light touch" interventionism which doesn't garner as much negative attention as full-scale ground invasions and (B) a global perception management campaign of historically unprecedented scale and sophistication."

(C) Militarizing US police forces to ensure groups opposed to the Empire are silenced.

And perhaps...

(D) Buying off any political obstruction: ie Sinema. (Although, Ryan Grimm kind of nailed that today)
