War chat scandal of the White House ‘SNL’.

Saturday Night LiveThe weekend update has fun lacked almost all those responsible for the Trump administration involved in the scandal to inadvertently provide attack plans to a journalist via a signal group cat.

Monday, The Atlantic reported that national security advisor Mike Waltz accidentally added the editor -in -chief to a cat in which the defense secretary Pete Hegseth detailed plans for a hit to come on the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Since then, the Trump administration has not been too clear on what exactly happened, with Hegseth, denying several times that anyone who “sent war plans” – even if the White House itself confirmed the authenticity of the chain of messages – and Waltz simultaneously taking responsibility for the “embarrassing” error while suggesting that the journalist, Jeffrey Goldberg, could have had something cat. In addition, Waltz denied Tuesday that a staff member was at fault, the same day, Donald Trump pointed out on someone working under Waltz.

While national security experts massively dispute the affirmation of the administration that no information in the cat has been classified, Waltz, it seems, still has a job only because Trump does not want to give the Democrats and the press “a victory”.

Regarding all of this, the co-apnacle Colin Jost began: “This week, we learned that our whole national security team has the skills of text on my aunt Janet.”

“Of all people to accidentally add to the cat, it was the editor of chief The Atlantic. It’s like planning a surprise quinceañera and Cc’ed Jared de Subway, ”joked Jost.

Jost then shot Elon Musk when he noted the type of Waltz Emojis Tapped: a fist, the American flag and a fire, the last of which was really “the emoji tesla”.

“Waltz explained later – it was his real explanation – that the journalist’s number should have been” sucked on “his phone,” he added. “Worse, he then tried to get rid of the number saying:” Siri, how can I suck the journalist? “”

As for the denial of Hegseth, which included the line, “and that’s all I have to say about this”, Jost compared the former co-animator of Fox News to Forrest Gump.

“He went full-time-with the exception of HegSeth’s life is more like a wine box,” he joked about the man who has been accused of alcohol abuse.

Michael Che has then moved to the way in which the interior security secretary, Kristi Noem, visited an infamous prison in El Salvador as part of a message to undocumented immigrants with “self-deprecation”. Yet in Che, Noem, who filmed a video in front of dozens of tattooed men behind bars while wearing a watch of $ 50,000, it seemed to be there for something else: “Trying to break a world record on only fans.”

Jost, concerning the visit of the vice-president JD Vance-and the reception frozen in Greenland, then took so that it “pronounced the clearest threat of the administration so far: either Greenland joins the United States, or the United States will continue to send them JD Vance”.
