That list includes billionaire Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, who has been tapped by Trump to lead the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency taskforce, which aims to \u201cdismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures and restructure Federal Agencies,\u201d per the President-elect.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWeekend Update anchor Michael Che noted that Musk had shared job listings for the new taskforce, which state employees will be working \u201c80-plus hours per week for no money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cYou can\u2019t be surprised that the white African guy\u2019s first idea is slavery,\u201d Che said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tChe\u2019s co-anchor Colin Jost also got a few jabs in, opening the segment with digs at attorney general pick Matt Gaetz, who was once embroiled in a sex trafficking investigation (which led to no charges) and now faces a new accusation of having sex with a minor. Gaetz resigned as a Congress member earlier this week after being tapped to join Trump\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cTrump nominated Matt Gaetz for attorney general and Gaetz said the same thing he says when he sees a teenage girl: I\u2019ll do it,\u201d Jost said, getting some groans from the crowd. He continued with, \u201cGaetz, who was created when Frankenstein raped Dracula, was chosen for attorney general after Trump remembered that his original pick was found in dead a jail cell,\u201d making a reference to the officially ruled suicide of sex criminal and New York financier Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cCongratulations to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who became the first brain worm survivor nominated to a cabinet level position,\u201d Jost said in a later segment. \u201cKennedy, whose skin is always cooked to a perfect medium rare, will lead the Department of Health and Human Services. I know he doesn\u2019t have a lot of experience, but I say we give him a shot,\u201d he continued, referencing Kennedy\u2019s much-touted skepticism regarding vaccinations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tCharli XCX pulled double-duty as both host and musical guest for this week\u2019s \u201cSaturday Night Live.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Weekend Update: Trump\u2019s Shocking Cabinet Picks, Elon Musk Spending Every Day with Trump - SNL\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V2Oe1j1DPiI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2024\/tv\/news\/snl-weekend-update-elon-musk-trump-cabinet-matt-gaetz-1236212319\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Weekend Update desk at \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d devoted its opening to hocking some loogies at Donald Trump\u2019s picks to lead his presidential administration.
