Upside is Rubio (DS)'s appropriation will shortly be off the table, so the next WH move to destabilize DS operations won't have to factor in that particular wild card of bribe / laundering money being available to the DS for their counter. Should be able to limit future maneuvering by DS if we force them to dump their reserve of appropriations into responding to WH moves (defense) rather than being able to focus exclusively on reorganizing and recapturing previously freed assets.
