lab politics is killing me

I am a research fellow at a lab which has 2 active collaborations at other institutes.
I have been working here for 3 months and I have noticed that the team which I am a part of and includes two other people is actively involving in institutional politics .
The other two of my team mates often
1) sit with each other discussing about lab people and lab projects for sometimes hours in a row.
2) discussion of propspective project idea without including me.
3) when I give them any ideas or opinion I'm given cold shoulder.
4) they were not like this for the first month when they included me in their discussions but now they don't do that.
5) they plan and plot their moves and leave me to fend myself in an as it is complicated collaborative situation.
6) they taunt/criticise me and casually make jokes at my expense.
7) one of them was my classmate but he doesn't even behave like a friend anymore.

What do I do.

Kick the living shit out of one of them and make sure the other one sees you do it.

Make sure to posture like a chimpanzee after. Chest banging and all that shit. The other one will get the picture quick.
