sherk /'sherk'/ (noun) someone who both shirks responsibility to do their own work and steals credit for another person's work, especially to advance themselves at the other's expense.

"Katharine Parker's character in the 1988 film 'Working Girl' is a canonical example of a sherk, an unscrupulous boss who steals her employees' ideas and claims credit for their work, while contributing nothing of value herself."

"Republican Senator Roger Wicker of Mississippi, who voted 'no' on the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, later tweeted that he deserved credit for passing the widely popular bill, confirming once again that he is an 'odious sherk' as his critics have charged."

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
