Would Indictments Impact GOP's Power?

Honest question. I understand they can put stops on visas/passports and hold bank accounts. But supposing some of the indictments are against tRump or Ryan or McConnell. Would that affect their ability to legislate at all, or would that be too much and give away the secrecy of the investigations?

Of course I don't hold out much hope of them enforcing either.
