And since it was played by reigning “SNL” MVP Kenan Thompson, the sketch was an absolute delight.“The New Mario Brothers movie is a huge hit and many fans.

Katie Reul editor In the final moments of this week’s “Weekend Update” segment on “Saturday Night Live,” co-anchor Michael Che used the sketch show’s platform to address recent legislation in Republican-dominated states like Florida, Kansas and Missouri, which would heavily restrict gender-affirming healthcare for transgender kids. “Since the start of this year, over 400 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced across the country, many of which directly target trans youth,” Che said, taking on a more serious tone. “Here to talk about it is someone with their own introduction.” “Introducing ‘SNL’s’ first non-binary cast-member,’ a disembodied voice foreshadowed as featured player Molly Kearney was lowered from the ceiling on ropes, clad in a vibrant purple jumpsuit. “This harness is pretty tight and my groin area is beefed,” Kearney joked about the strappy contraption. “I have been hung up on my genitals for far too long, and I’m starting to feel like a freaking Republican lawmaker.”

Colin Jost and Michael Che took several swipes at current president Joe Biden and former commander-in-chief Donald Trump during Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update” segment.

Trump filed against his former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, dubbing their weird journey from longtime employer/employees and co-conspirators to enemies “the circle jerk of life.”“You know, Donald Trump was in — you’re not gonna believe this — he was in court today.
