SNL mocks Eric Adams’ ‘rat czar’ and Staten Island

NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” poked fun at Mayor Eric Adams’ appointment of Kathleen Corradi as “rat czar” — and the city’s conservative borough of Staten Island — during its Weekend Update segment.

“Kathleen Corradi was announced New York City’s first rat czar — a title that was formerly known as Miss Staten Island,” co-host Michael Che Campbell said.

The camera then pans to co-host Colin Jost, a Staten Island native, who appears to utter under his breath, “loser.”

Jost had famously teamed with fellow islander and SNL alum Pete Davidson to buy a decommissioned ferry and turn it into an entertainment space.

The Sanitation Department’s latest ad campaign against filth also was the brunt of a separate joke in the segment.

“The New York City Sanitation Department has launched its first campaign in 15 years with messages such as, `If you litter, you’re garbage’, which is actually dialed back from the original version, `Your litter belongs in the trash next to your whore wife,’” Jost ripped.

Meanwhile, Adams anti-rodent zealotry will be featured in this Saturday’s satirical Inner Circle show put on by New York City journalists.

In the spoof of “Batman Forever”, rodent-hating Adams will be lampooned as “Ratman,” opposite his press secretary Fabian Levy’s “Fobin” at the outlandish annual charity event at the Ziegfeld Ballroom.

The SNL segment also waded into the culture wars, dedicating a portion of its Weekend Update segment early Sunday to condemn the anti-transgender legislation being passed in states around America.

Molly Kearney — the skit show’s first non-binary cast member — dropped into the fake news desk via a harness to slam politicians trying to eliminate healthcare for transgender youth.
