This edition of Weekend Update with Colin Jost and Michael Che covers several satirical takes on current political and global events:
Political & International Highlights:
- Trump in China: The segment opens with President Trump's 14,000-mile trip to China for a summit, humorously suggesting it could have been an email, and notes a mix-up where he was greeted by the country's vice president instead of Xi Jinping (0:34 - 1:12).
- Global Relations: CIA Director John Ratcliffe visited Cuba amid blackouts, and Trump reportedly rejected Iran's demands for war reparations (1:22 - 1:36, 3:12 - 3:34).
- Domestic Politics: The show jokes about RFK Jr.'s comments on health data, Senator John Cornin's proposal to rename a highway, and Carrie Lake's appointment as ambassador to Jamaica (2:08 - 2:35, 3:34 - 4:11).
Pop Culture:
- The show concludes by poking fun at the announcement of the FIFA World Cup final halftime show, which is set to feature Madonna, Shakira, and BTS (4:11 - 4:35).
