Biden administration anniversary video with Tom Hanks mocked for mirroring The Simpsons

• A Biden Administration anniversary video featuring Tom Hanks is being mocked on Twitter.
• Conservative commentators say the video mirrors a scene from The Simpsons Movie.

A White House video promoting the achievements of the Biden administration is being lampooned because it mirrors a scene from the 2007 Simpsons Movie.

Narrated by Tom Hanks, the Biden video was released to celebrate the President's first anniversary in office, showing everyday Americans —and the President — reflecting on the past 365 days.

But Conservative commentators were quick to draw comparisons to a scene from The Simpsons Movie in 2007, featuring a cartoon Tom Hanks saying, "Hello, I'm Tom Hanks. The US government has lost its credibility so it's borrowing some of mine."

"The Simpsons did it first!" Republican senator Ted Cruz exclaimed in a tweet.

Conservative commentator Matt Whitlock said, "Oh my gosh it's the Simpsons in real life."
