On February 29, 2020, stand-up comedian John Mulaney hosted “Saturday Night Live.” During his opening monologue, he joked about senators murdering a national leader.

Last month, the 37-year-old comedian revealed that the U.S. Secret Service had opened an investigation into his joke. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the investigation file through a Freedom of Information Act request, which revealed that NBC was contacted as part of the investigation, but did not interview Mulaney.
