There is nothing rare about this.
Democrats and Republicans have always, and will always, have bipartisanship for things that suck:
Low Minimum Wage
Welfare for Israel
Permanent War (and now endless funds for other country's wars too)
No Health Care
Overfunding War
Overfunding and Militarizing Cops
Legal grifts (like how it’s legal for them to loan their campaigns money and charge 20% interest)
Underfunded Education
Underfunded Food Aid
Legal Insider Trading for Lawmakers
Legislators ‘Working’ Four Months a Year
Automatic Raises for Themselves
Almost half of your list is things dems try to address but get blocked because they don't have a senate supermajority. Dems are bad enough with the truth, you don't need to lie about them
Yeah I agree, Some of those points also have some more nuance. I think we can all be against endless war but recognize what is happening in Ukraine as something else. It depends on if you think it is ok for the USA to use geopolitics of Russia's blunders in Ukraine as a way to wage a modern day cold war against an old foe. I think most in the West would prefer Ukraine to be free and independent, rather than Russia win.
