“Saturday Night Live” opened with a March 9 episode that mocked President Joe Biden's State of the Union address, but the reaction was louder from Republicans. After Mikey Day's Biden addressed Congress and mocked House Speaker Mike Johnson shaking his head, he said, “Every time I say predecessor, Mike Johnson happens to spend 30 seconds on the show Euphoria.'' Shake your head like you saw it,” he threw at Katie Britt. , Alabama State Senator.
Then Scarlett Johansson appeared as Britt and announced, “Tonight, you'll be auditioning for the role of Scary Mom.” I will perform an original monologue called “This country is hell.'' ”
Continuing to ridicule Britt's speech, which was heavily criticized online, she went on to explain how she is “more than just a senator.”
“I'm a wife, a mother, and the craziest bitch in the Target parking lot,” Johansson said. “I've invited you into this strange, empty kitchen because I'm concerned about the future of my children. Because the Republican Party wants me to appeal to women voters and women who love the kitchen. Because that’s what I wanted.”
She went on to say that Biden gave a “permanent politician performance,” and she didn't.
“First of all, I'm a mother. And like any mother, I'm going to veer out of nowhere into a shocking and violent story about sex trafficking. Rest assured, the incident “Every detail is true except for the year it happened, the location, and the president at the time of the incident,” she continued.
Britt, played by Johansson, also tried to sell her a “luxurious bejeweled crucifix necklace” during a speech, but then was “strangely seduced for no apparent reason”.
The sketch also included a Get Out pun, with Johansson stirring a teacup with a spoon, and the camera cutting to a terrified Kenan Thompson with tears streaming down his cheeks.
Later in the episode, Jost, who is married to Johansson, joked about Britt's speech on the “Weekend Update” segment, noting that it was the worst performance she had ever seen.
