Mónica Marie Zorrilla “Saturday Night Live” took aim at the growing crisis in Ukraine, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and President Biden in its cold open, which included a timely reference to the flap over Tom Brady’s retirement plans that erupted earlier in the day.The sketch began with President Biden (played by “SNL” regular James Austin Johnson) getting a briefing in the Oval Office about the tense situation in Eastern Europe and other global hot topics from trusted aides and advisors, played by Ego Nwodim, Alex Moffat and Kenan Thompson. The week’s updates included quips about Neil Young’s beef with Spotify and Joe Rogan, and the question of whether famed quarterback Tom Brady has decided to retire (and whether or not ESPN was accurate in its “sources say” report published earlier on Saturday).
