"Scarlett Johansson Mocks Sen. Katie Britt in 'SNL' Cold Open"

Scarlett Johansson parodied Sen. Katie Britt's controversial GOP response to President Biden's State of the Union address on "Saturday Night Live," mocking Britt's kitchen setting and dramatic statements. Johansson, portraying Britt, made satirical remarks about women voters, human trafficking, and even promoted cross necklaces for QVC. The skit also referenced Britt's controversial story about a human-trafficking victim, which was later fact-checked to have occurred during the administration of President George W. Bush, not Biden's. The real-life Britt defended her speech on "Fox News Sunday," doubling down on her criticisms of Biden's border policies, while the White House accused her of spreading "debunked lies."
