The "Mitch McConnell, seen here..." gag is the best running joke on this segment, and the best iteration of that joke ever.

[Vylkeer]

"Because no person on Earth has taken more of our goddamn TIME" 1:50
That's gold right there

[vdavis]

Someone should do a medley of all the "Mitch McConnell, seen here lines. They are brilliant (and likely accurate).

⁠Brian Thompson to UH insured customers: “We don’t actively want you to die, but we don’t care if you do.”
All of America to healthcare company CEOs: Same

[MrChuckGrape]

Pretty sure NBC's CEO personally wrote the Luigi Mangione jokes.

[pokemonmusiclover]

My favorite running gag this season is che saying "its the 90's"

[sashakasprzyk]

Matt Gaetz must have misunderstood when he was told people use Venmo to make minor purchases.

[tonycamacho]

Tried to send my “thoughts and prayers” to the Healthcare CEO… but my claim was denied

[knioutom]

HEALTH CARE FOR PROFIT SUCKS !!!

[joeaguilera]

People act like these insurance companies don’t kill tens of thousands of people probably a year by denying them coverage they paid for. But because one corrupt ceo got shot now it’s a discussion people are taking more seriously. That’s why Luigi Mangione is a legend.

[justinhackstadt]

"Here is Mitch McConnell watching the wind blow a homeless mans winning lottery ticket away."
*I think I died laughing* 😂🤣😨💀

[apologeticsroadshow]

COLIN JOST: “Perhaps his greatest crime was hypocrisy.”
NORM MACDONALD: “I thought his greatest crime was murder.”

[techmemes]

not a single jab against predatory healthcare. Absolute spineless cowards. Comedy is supposed to punch up not down.

[mickeychelle]

Did SNL really call Luigi Mangione a hypocrite for what he did while then making a Tiny Tim joke?! I see NBC is writing all the jokes now.

[nm]

“It ain’t Christmas without some Tiny Tim’s” 😂😂😂🎅🏾🎅🏾🎅🏾

[zammich]

tbh i can't get any feeling at all from the Luigi jokes. like they felt obligated to joke about the story because of how big it is, but were afraid to tell a funnier or more biting joke from being caught between their viewers and their corporate sponsors, so we ended up what we got.

[laenvirolatina]

SNL missed the opportunity to have Bowen Yang dress up as a drone

[MsZephyra]

Very cleverly done, SNL - managed not to upset the corporate overlords by avoiding even a single word about the atrocious govt-approved scam, harm, and murder that "healthcare" companies get away with every single day.
We all need to unite for universal health care now!!!

[Rocketboy]

That Hypocrisy joke is another version of that meme.
"We should improve society somewhat."
"Yet you live in society. Interesting. I am very intelligent."

[Nick-fb]

Everybody on tv is scared to tell funny jokes surrounding luigi
