The latest episode of “Saturday Night Live” saw the casting face the scandal of signal texts.
In a parody of the security leak, the winner of the Oscars Mikey Madison and the regulars of “SNL” Sarah Sherman and Ego Nwodim played a trio of high school students discussing texts that discover that they were accidentally added to a group group with the defense secretary Pete Hegseth.
Interrupting their conversation on cute boys and bad outfits, Hegseth, played by Andrew Dismukes, sends: “Fyi: Green Light on Yemen Raid. Tomahawks airborne 15 minutes ago.”
“Do we know you, my brother? It’s Jennabel,” replied the character of Madison. Nwodim adds: “Hey, I think you have the bad group cat.”
“LOL LOL. Can you imagine if it really happened?” Hegseth de Dismukes answers. “Homer disappears in Bush Gif. And even if I have everyone, sending a PDF with updated locations of all our nuclear submarines. Discover this one that we frightened just outside Shanghai. Jordan Peele sweating like a crazy GIF.”
While adolescents continue to plead with Dismukes Hegseth to stop sending messages, JD Vance (played by Bowen Yang), then joined the cat.
“Beautiful work with the strike, the Fam. Emoji female skier”, writes Vance de Yang. “My bad, meant sending fire emoji.”
Imitating the recent visit from Vance to Greenland – during which the vice -president struck in Denmark and repeated calls in the United States to take control of the island – Yang adds: “No one knows why I am here, especially me.”
The parody also presents brief camées by Marcello Hernández as Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Mikey Day as Jeffrey Goldberg – the editor of the Atlantic who was wrongly added to the group of real signals by Michael Waltz, the national adviser to President Donald Trump.
“Wait, who are the other three numbers here? PS send you the real JFK files, not those we have published. Do not share!” Rubio de Hernández writes, encouraging the character of Nwodim to explain that they are high school students.
“In this case, we totally make you pranks, lol,” he replied, while asking them to send their personal names and addresses to an Ice e-mail address.
“Hey, could be worse. We could have added the Atlantic editor Again“Reasons Vance de Yang.
“You did!” Said Goldberg of the day.
Goldberg published a bomb report on the Atlantic incident on Monday, detailing how it had been wrongly added to a cat called “Houthi PC in small group” as well as senior officials of the Trump administration discussing the military strikes to come on the Houthi rebels in Yemen.
While the control of the apparent security violation rose, Trump’s team tried to minimize the meaning of the incident and denied that the classified equipment had been shared in the group.
In response, the Atlantic has published a monitoring article detailing HegSeth messages on schedules and targets of air strikes.
The flight has been alarmed by republican and democratic legislators.
