Edit: In fact it's important to do it, just so everyone can watch the system wrap it all up and dispose of it in full view. And then there will be less of the false choice inherent in "See how great our system is, you're allowed to criticise! Not like those Russians!"
Instead of waiting for the results, you simply plan another step ahead, and you show the farce, as it unfolds, to the legislative branch overseers and directly to the public.
Rather than "Why are you breaking transparency laws?", the question then becomes, "If it is so obvious the executive is breaking the laws you wrote, and the judiciary is letting them get away with it, why do you keep signing their paychecks?"
After it is clear that there is a problem, and absolutely no one entrusted with the power to fix it is willing to do so, then the peaceful demonstrations and violent riots can start, as appropriate. But it is always wise to explore all diplomatic options before putting lives, liberty, and property at risk.
