Sabotage
In politics a party or influence group often creates public acceptance of a goal by associating it with emotionally-laden imprecise buzzwords. National defense, preventing sexual trafficking and support for the arts are examples that are effective for different demographics. As the key bill is about to be passed, or the purchase contract is near being finalized, what the promoters most fear is serious analysis of the full costs and range of effects.
The political or media strategy then becomes vilifying those who oppose it, and depicting such effort as "sabotage" can be effective It contains the tacit message that those who are expressing such sentiments, especially if they are fact based, are actually using underhanded methods that the audience is warned against attending to.
This usage is a way of saying, "don't confuse me with the facts!"

Beware of those who will "sabotage" the contract that the city has signed for the expensive land purchase just as we are reaching the end of the contingency period.
