00:03Well, she isn't here.

00:10Attorney General Pam Bondi and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem were the focus of Saturday Night Live's cold open.
00:18But instead of firing back, the two are embracing the spoof.
00:22Bondi posted on X Sunday, tagging Noem and saying they should recreate the photo in Chicago, a city where ICE-related protests and raids have escalated.
00:35She also added loving Amy Poehler, who was portraying Bondi.
00:39Welcome back, Madam Attorney General.
00:42What's up, nerds?
00:43The cold open recreated Bondi's Senate testimony last week, where, in the skit, they show her dodging questions about President Trump.
00:52I'm not going to discuss my private conversations with the president.
00:56DHS even got in on the joke, posting a clip from the sketch with the caption, thanks for the free advertisement.
01:02Luckily, my boys at ICE don't mind. They're in it for the love of the game.
01:06And how did I find them? By running ads like this.
01:09Lord have mercy.
01:10In a follow-up post, the agency linked two job openings, turning satire into recruitment.
01:18The spoof also touched on the government shutdown and even poked fun at Noem's real-life controversy,
01:24admitting she shot her dog years ago in her memoir.
