The recent Signal chat involving Trump administration officials and The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief provided ample material for the season opener of “Saturday Night Live.” The chat revealed discussions about military moves against Houthi rebels in Yemen among top leaders. In “SNL’s” satirical version, three teenage girls are accidentally added to the chat group, leading to awkward and humorous interactions with the officials. The officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, inadvertently share sensitive information with the teenagers, who realize they shouldn’t be in the chat. The sketch also mocks the officials’ lack of awareness and their attempts to cover up their mistakes. The segment highlights the absurdity of the real-life situation and the incompetence of some government officials. Overall, the “SNL” skit provides a comical take on the serious issue of government officials discussing sensitive matters in an unsecure communication platform. The show, which aired on NBC, also featured Morgan Wallen as the musical performer.
