mocked

The Scottish National Party MP Pete Wishart mocked the news, telling the Commons: "We got the crushing news today that our British envoy to Scotland will no longer be coming there to represent this Parliament."

This week’s cold open mocked president-elect Donald Trump by having the cast pretend to support him, and guest host Bill Burr’s monologue could be viewed from different lenses.
