‘Saturday Night Live’ Open Has Matt Damon As Brett Kavanaugh Joining Pete Hegseth And Kash Patel In Boozy Night On The Town

Saturday Night Live returned Pete Hegseth (Colin Jost) and Kash Patel (Aziz Ansari) to the cold open, this time as they cavort in a booze-filled night along with Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh (Matt Damon).

Following last week’s debut of Ansari as Patel, the fact that SNL returned to the same theme this week is not a huge surprise.

The opener has Hegseth arriving at Martin’s Tavern, the legendary Georgetown watering hole, where he encounters Kavanaugh, still in his robe and carrying a gavel. In reality, both Hegseth and Kavanaugh faced questions in their confirmation hearings over excessive drinking.
