“Saturday Night Live” returned from a hiatus with a political satire skit based on the recent Signal group chat involving Trump administration officials discussing military moves against Houthi rebels in Yemen. In the skit, a group chat including three teenage girls was accidentally joined by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who shared sensitive information. The teenagers were confused by the strange texts and eventually realized they shouldn’t be in the group. Other officials, including Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, also shared sensitive information in the chat. When they realized the teenagers were not supposed to be there, they joked about sending them to ICE. The skit poked fun at the real-life incident involving the Signal chat and The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. The segment concluded with Goldberg asking to be removed from the chat. The skit aired on NBC, the parent company of NBC News. Morgan Wallen performed as the night’s musical guest. Overall, the skit highlighted the absurdity of the situation and provided a humorous take on the controversy.
