How about "Collusion" instead of "Cabal"?

Wikipedia defines collusion as "a secret cooperation or deceitful agreement in order to deceive others, although not necessarily illegal".

The word 'collusion' doesn't appear in the article and has its own triggering capacities these days. Best not to go there.

You'd have to demonstrate 'deceit' and 'cooperation'.
