Who it helps or who it hurts

“It requires that we develop a nonpartisan, bipartisan consensus that if a foreign power meddles again we will all reject their interference no matter who it helps or who it hurts.” (The Guardian.)

Is "who" a direct object of "helps" and "hurts" in the sentence above?

I don't see how a consensus can be both nonpartisan and bipartisan.

“It requires that we develop a nonpartisan, bipartisan consensus I think he means a bipartisan consensus, agreed to by both Republican and Democrats.

Consider these broad definitions.

nonpartisan not related to any political party

partisan
