āSaturday Night Liveā Brutally Mocks Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel
āSaturday Night LiveāHegseth & Patel Ripped Apart For Their Alleged Boozing
Secretary of WarĀ Pete HegsethĀ and FBI DirectorĀ Kash PatelĀ came under some heavy fire on āSaturday Night Liveā over their alleged drinking habits ā and the jokes were so scathing, the two must be waking up with splitting headaches!
āSNLā regularĀ Colin JostĀ kicked things off playing Hegseth in the opening sketch, walking out to a podium for a press conference with an oversized glass of Scotch on the rocks gripped in his hand.
Jost mockingly tells reporters, āI said I only had one,ā and then hands the glass to castmateĀ Ashley Padilla, who played pregnant White House Press SecretaryĀ Karoline Leavitt. As Jost passed the glass, he said, āHere you go, for the baby.ā
Jost then ridiculed one of Hegsethās many speeches about blowing Iran to smithereens before handing the reins over toĀ Aziz Ansari, who played the role of FBI Director Patel.
With his eyes bulging, Ansari hilariously admits to being āthe first Indian person to suck at his job,ā and then goes on to poke fun at Patelās time as the head of the federal agency before taking questions from the media.
One journalist asks about Patelās alleged drinking ā and Ansariās answer is priceless. Check out the clip. You wonāt be disappointed.
Weāve reached out to reps for Hegseth and Patel ⦠so far, no word back.
