I briefly saw him on CNN with Jake Tapper last night where he emphasized importance of info being revealed before Trump takes over. Apparently there was concern that unless the details are revealed publicly now, Trump and his team once officially in power, would be more able to it sweep it all under the rug and quash investigations.

shall we?

Those memos weren't published by the MSM because they could not verify to their standards that they were real. This is good.

The left also has a handful of fake-news/propaganda sites for those who need a hit, though. As one of them, Addicting Info, puts it, The "Knowledge" You Crave.

Fwiw, OF COURSE Putin has a dossier on Trump, who has a 30-year history with Russia. Because that's what they do. Whether pee-sex is in it or not, I'm as sure as I can be that it must contain far worse material than that. Because Trump is the dysfunctional scumbag in all aspects of his life that we know him to be.

Interesting, isn't it? Debt reduction and deficits only matter when democrats are in the WH. And Obama was fixing an enormous mess left by the guy who is #1 on this list.

. . .was what really boosted the economy. They accused dems of being tax and spend, and what they did was cut taxes and spend anyway. So, their supposedly revenue neutral plan was a lie in theory and a lie in practice.

And you're right about their strategy: tax and spend and lie about it.
