Maybe it's the eggnog, or maybe it's the Democrats' lousy poll numbers, but whatever's fueling it, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) are finally working with Republicans to get something positive done. For the first time since Joe Biden became president, the two sides are on the verge of passing something America actually wants -- the military spending bill. After 11 months of miserable partisanship, Democrats have apparently decided to stop playing games and take national security seriously. And for our troops, the rush of goodwill couldn't have come at a better time.

Dubbed the "Xinjiang Papers," the hundreds of pages lend additional evidence that the Chinese government is committing crimes against humanity and even genocide.
