On “Saturday Night Live,” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and FBI Director Kash Patel found themselves in the crosshairs of some razor-sharp humor focused on their alleged drinking habits. Colin Jost kicked off the evening by portraying Hegseth, striding up to the podium with an oversized glass of Scotch, visibly ready to stir the pot.“I said I only had one,”he quipped, just before handing off the glass to Ashley Padilla, who was playing a pregnant press secretary, adding a unique twist to the whole situation.

Aziz Ansari then took the stage as Patel, launching into gags about his struggles in the role and admitting he might be “the first Indian person to suck at his job.” The whole segment was a comedic barrage, leaving viewers in stitches while leaving questions about how Hegseth and Patel are handling their newfound notoriety. For them, waking up the next morning might just come with a side of splitting headaches after such a public takedown!
