Maya Rudolph‘s bringing the “fun aunt” energy back to “Saturday Night Live” … appearing in her Emmy-winning role as Vice President Kamala Harris — and, she wasn’t the only show alum jumping into the political satire arena.
The comedic actress pulled up in her best pantsuit for the Season 50 premiere of the legendary comedy variety show … telling the audience their fun aunt was back in Studio 8H during Saturday’s cold open.

During the bit, Rudolph’s Kamala cracks jokes about Donald Trump, her viral face during the debate and even her husband, Doug Emhoff before introducing the audience to her running mate Tim Walz … played by comedian, Jim Gaffigan.
Gaffigan plays into Walz’s image as a down-to-earth Midwest American … joking he actually bought his suit from Costco and adding he’s got BDE — Big Dad Energy.
