The cold open of this week’s “Saturday Night Live” brought in host Amy Poehler and her BFF Tina Fey to play Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem, respectively.
The sketch began by portraying part of Bondi’s controversial Senate hearing this week, where the United States Attorney General was grilled and cagey about topics such as the Jeffrey Epstein files.
When asked if Trump directed her to indict James Comey, the AG was noncompliant.
“I’m not going to discuss my private conversations with the president,” Poehler as Bondi said. “I’m not telling you who fell asleep in the middle of a sentence, or who kept calling me Ivanka while patting his lap.”
Soon enough, Fey’s Noem entered, complete with an automatic weapon.
“That’s right, it’s me, Kristi,” Noem said during her entrance. “I spelled my name with an ‘I’ because that’s how I thought it was spelled.”
