I would be interested in evidence that this has not already occurred. Keith Alexander's continued freedom suggests that it has. Or does it only count as a takeover when they stop trying to hide it?

Keith Alexander's main recognized felony would seem to be just perjury rather than conspiring against the constitution.
For perjury in high-level positions, the designated prosecutor would be the Attorney General. Attorney General Eric Holder has lied a lot under oath to congress himself. He is not interested in having perjury dealt with as law and propriety would demand.
When the trial against Ellsberg for the release of the Pentagon papers was thrown out of court, the judge stated: "The totality of the circumstances of this case which I have only briefly sketched offend a sense of justice. The bizarre events have incurably infected the prosecution of this case."
Unfortunately, the bizarre events surrounding its head Eric Holder nowadays have incurably infected the ability of the Department of Justice to prosecute felonies committed by government officials.
Why would Holder want to anger his fellow cronies?

Everybody that is in a position to do anything about the NSA are their main supporters.
The president loves them, the people that are put in charge of the oversight committee over the NSA and DoD operations are the people that publicly denounce the media for 'misrepresenting' the NSA.
They all love and support the NSA.
I only hope this will help our European friends understand why Americans can hate and distrust their own government so much.
