A little something from 1968. Sound familiar?
Yeah, that's Nixon speaking.

Beau of the fifth Column - Let's talk about the RNC and Moderate voters
Beau discusses the fact that the odds of Biden actually trying to follow through on his 'gun ban' are pretty damn low, and if he did try, it wouldn't even be finished before the next election at which point he'd be voted out in favour of a Republican promising to get rid of said ban.

Five companies control all media in the US and the distorting effect it has.
Things like this is why I don’t take seriously the argument that deregulation is an unalloyed good.

It's important to remember, all markets are regulated. A market that is not regulated will be regulated by the biggest player to the biggest player's benefit by any measure it can, up to and including criminal activity if it can get away with it.
Government regulation of the market is not, or at least should not be, about increasing the government's power over the people. It is, or at least should be, about protecting the general public from the abuses of other players on the market. There is, in fact, nothing at all wrong about regulating the market to protect organizations on the market from abuses performed by the public on them, but that's an exceptional circumstance. More common is larger groups (including companies) abusing smaller groups (including companies) and individuals for the larger groups' own gain, which is often but needs not be monetary.

History does not repeat, but it rhymes. As with COVID-19 now, so it was with the AIDS epidemic then.

This one is from 2016, but just as relevant today (except for the little talky part after the song)
I think we were hoping this bit of political humor would lose its relevance, but unfortunately the President is the joke.

I am here to interrupt your regularly scheduled Trump bashing with some facts about Joe Biden
https://twitter.com/i/status/1251009017142525952
Stop Plagarising Joe, maybe tell the truth too, when you can be bothered to decide where you stand
as to why i bring this up, it is because he told the same story LAST NIGHT AT HIS TOWN HALL

Rob, Campaign slogans are repeatedly used, even across the aisle, PLAGARISING SOMETHING YOU CLAIM HAPPENED IN YOUR LIFE IS NOT THE SAME!
That said, Trumps reaction to RBG's death

I guess you just have two bunches of stupid politicians who can't come up with anything new. Sucks to be you.
