Weekend Update: Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson Confirmed, Obama's Return to the White House - SNL

>>> IT'S "WEEKEND UPDATE" WITH COLIN JOST AND MICHAEL CHE. >> GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE. >> WELCOME TO "WEEKEND UPDATE." I'M MICHAEL CHE. >> I'M COLIN JOST. >> THE SENATE CONFIRMED KETANJI BROWN JACKSON, MAKING HER THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO SERVE ON THE SUPREME COURT. I'LL DRINK TO THAT SAID BRETT KAVANAUGH. JUSTICE JACKSON WAS HONORED FRIED AT A WHITE HOUSE CEREMONY AND SAID, THIS IS A MOMENT IN WHICH ALL AMERICANS CAN TAKE GREAT PRIDE. WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY TOWARDS PERFECTING OUR UNION. WHICH IS ALSO A DIRECT QUOTE FROM BEN AFFLECK'S "PROPOSAL." >>> REPUBLICAN SENATOR TOM COTTON, WHO WANTS EVERYONE TO COOL IT WITH THE LONG NECK JOKES, SAID THAT HE BELIEVES SUPREME COURT JUSTICE JACKSON WOULD HAVE DEFENDED THE NAZIS AT NUREMBERG. WORSE, HE MEANT IT AS A COMPLIMENT. >>> HEALTH OFFICIALS SAY THAT THE ANNUAL GRIDIRON CLUB DINNER WASHINGTON, D.C. BECAME A COVID SUPERSPREADER EVENT WITH MORE THAN 50 HIGH-RANKING OFFICIALS GETTING INFECTED. THE PROBLEM WAS A LOT OF PEOPLE TOOK OFF THEIR MASKS DURING THE POST-DINNER ORGY. >> I DON'T THINK THEY NEEDED THAT EXPLAINED WITH THE PICTURE. THE PICTURE REALLY PAINTS A PICTURE. >>> HEALTH OFFICIALS IN WASHINGTON, D.C. CONFIRMED THAT A FOX THAT BIT A CONGRESSMAN NEAR THE CAPITOL HAD RABIES. OFFICIALS SUSPECT THE FOX CONTRACTED LABORBIES WHEN IT WAS BITTEN BY MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE. >> IN A NEW INTERVIEW DONALD TRUMP SAID HE WANTED TO JOIN THE JANUARY 6th MARCH ON THE CAPITOL BUT THAT THE SECRET WOULDN'T ALLOW IT. ALSO KEEPING HIM FROM JOINING, STEPS. >>> BARACK OBAMA RETURNED TO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FIVE YEARS AND JOKINGLY REFERRED TO JOE BIDEN AS VICE PRESIDENT. HEY, BARACK, DON'T CONFUSE HIM! >>> AS PUNISHMENT FOR SLAPPING CHRIS ROCK, THE ACADEMY OF MOTION PICTURES ARTS AND SCIENCES HAVE BANNED WILL SMITH FROM ATTENDING THE OSCARS FOR TEN YEARS. BUT IS THAT A PUNISHMENT? HE CAN STILL BE NOMINATED, HE CAN EVEN WIN AN AWARD. HE CAN EVEN GO TO THE AFTER PARTY. HE JUST DOESN'T HAVE TO ATTEND THE FOUR-HOUR CEREMONY WHERE SOMEONE IS DEFINITELY GOING TO MAKE FUN OF HIS WIFE AGAIN. I THINK -- HONESTLY, I THINK A REAL PUNISHMENT WOULD BE TO MAKE WILL SMITH HOST NEXT YEAR'S OSCARS. BECAUSE, TRUST ME, NOTHING WILL MAKE YOU QUESTION YOUR CHOICES IN LIFE MORE THAN HOSTING AN AWARDS SHOW. [ APPLAUSE ] >> I LOVED IT. >>> BUSINESS LEADERS IN MIAMI ARE HOPING TO MAKE THE CITY THE CRYPTOCURRENCY CAPITAL OF THE COUNTRY. BECAUSE JUST LIKE CRYPTO, MIAMI WON'T BE AROUND IN ABOUT 20 YEARS. >>> UKRAINE PRESIDENT VOLODYMYR ZELENSKYY MADE A TELEVISED SPEECH DURING SUNDAY'S GRAMMY AWARDS. IT WAS A HEARTFELT IMPASSIONED PLEA TO HELP THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE BUT A MISSED OPPORTUNITY FOR A LEGENDARY G.I. JANE JOKE. >> I DON'T KNOW. >> DISNEY ANNOUNCED IT WILL SOON LIFT THE COVID PROTOCOL AND ONCE AGAIN ALLOW GUESTS TO HUG KUS TOMB CHARACTERS. THANK GOD. IS THAT AN ADULT MAN SITTING NEXT TO JASMINE? >>> RED LOBSTER'S CEO IS RESIGNING AFTER JUST EIGHT MONTHS ON THE JOB SAYING, I HAVE TRULY LOVED MY TIME HERE AT RED LOBSTER. WHICH IS ALSO WHAT MY DATES SAY TO ME RIGHT BEFORE GETTING IN THEIR UBER. >> OH, THIS IS FUN. AN ALLIGATOR IN FLORIDA WAS PHOTOGRAPHED SWIMMING WITH A BASKETBALL IN ITS MOUTH. TURNING NOW TO SPORTS NEWS, TOM BRADY IS MISSING. >> A PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY IN FLORIDA ALLEGEDLY DROVE HER CAR INTO FOUR PEOPLE. SAID THE ATTORNEY, HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT? >> DUMB JOKE. >> IT WAS REPORTED THAT AT LEAST 139 PEOPLE AROUND THE COUNTRY HAVE SAID THEY BECAME SICK AFTER EATING THE BREAKFAST CEREAL LUCKY CHARMS. ONE OR TWO PEOPLE GETTING SICK COULD BE FINE BUT 139? THAT'S ♪♪ TRAGICALLY SUSPICIOUS. [ APPLAUSE ] >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>> A NEW LAWSUIT ACCUSES BURGER KING OF FALSELY ADVERTISING THEIR WHOPPERS AS BIGGER THAN WHAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY GET. IT'S THE SAME ACCUSATION MADE IN THE CASE OF WOMEN V. MICHAEL CHE.
