Looking for meditation method to help cope and deal with depression and anxiety with current events (or to help pass the time).

I'm frustrated and depressed from the current president administration's actions like the recent signing of the bill that cuts so many basic needs, gives the president more power, and other things (I'm praying that the elections will still be in effect and kick this administration to the curb...). Anyway, I'm wondering about meditative practices that will help me cope with this and/or pass the time. At least it's better than my bad habits of being on my devices (worse if it's doom scrolling).

I'm struggling trying to focus on my breath to clear my mind. If only there's an easier method, especially for cloudy and depressed minds.
