Pam Bondi appeared to see the funny side after she witnessed Amy Poehler and Tina Fey mimicking her and Kristi Noem during a Saturday Night Live sketch
Pam Bondi was mimicked by Amy Poehler
Pam Bondi was the subject of a Saturday Night Live spoof depicting her stood beside a gun-toting Kristi Noem.
In the skit, Amy Poehler took on the role of the Attorney General as she was joined by her former Weekend Update co-host Tina Fey who starred as the Secretary of Homeland Security to spoof Bondi’s recent Senate hearing.
The skit ridiculed the five-hour Senate Judiciary Committee hearing last week, where Bondi deflected several questions about former FBI director James Comey, the Epstein files, and immigration. The duo started the sketch by saying, “What’s up, nerds? My name is Pam Bondi. I spell it with an ‘I’ ’cause ‘I ain’t gonna answer any of your questions.’ My time is valuable. Before I don’t answer, I’d like to insult you personally.”

The comment referred to her “cheat sheet” for disparaging remarks after a photographer shared a photo of the folder Pam had during the hearing which included comebacks, such as “You are a total hypocrite,” underlined in her notes.

Tina appeared as Kristi coming on stage with prosthetic lips and carrying a large assault rifle. She said, “Hold my gun,” before tossing the fake weapon to one side.
She then said, “That’s right, it’s me, Kristi Noem. I spell my name with an ‘I’ because that’s how I thought it was spelled. And I’m the rarest type of person in Washington, D.C. — a brunette that Donald Trump listens to.”
She then added, “I’m here to tell you that this Democrat government shutdown needs to end now.”
Pam responded to the parody on X tagging Kristi as she wrote, “should we recreate this picture in Chicago? Loving Amy Poehler!” adding a photo of Amy and Tina posing as the political pair.

Meanwhile, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin commented, “SNL is absolutely right — the Democrats’ shutdown does need to end!”
The sketch also took aim at Noem for admitting to shooting her family dog because it was “untrainable” in the past.
Tina, as Kristi, said, “Ha, that makes me laugh more than the end of Old Yeller.” She then added, “Dogs don’t just get shot. Heroes shoot them.”
