Well, that stinks. Like InsomniaViaHaldol points out, some people are just born assholes and they for whatever reason have the good fortune of knowing how to network with the right people at the right time, how to manipulate other people to see them in a positive, error-free light, and how to squash the good guys without any repercussions.
We've all experienced it in the workplace, in our families, from our friends and acquaintances. Those types of people are bullies at the end of the day. And bullies tend to win despite the efforts to thwart them.
Sorry this happened to you. Look for another job. That's your best escape plan.
