Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers buddy up again to skewer a mouthy James Comey

Former SNL Weekend Update pals Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers reunited on Wednesday to take on another target: The ever-talkative James Comey.

Poehler and Meyers teamed up for a segment called "Really!?!" on Late Night, unpacking the former FBI director's tweet pleading the Democrats to not "lose their minds and rush to the socialist left."

"I don't know if you remember but we were just about to have a nice, boring, moderate Democrat for a president, until you decided to open your mouth a week before the election you big dumb scarecrow," Poehler said, referring to Hillary Clinton's emails.

"You're telling Democrats not to lose their minds?" Meyers added.

"I don't know if you've noticed, but the party in power is locking babies in cages, the president talks about Vladimir Putin the way Jay-Z talks about Beyonce, and the White House has more employee turnover than a Dairy Queen in September."

What a way to tell someone to shut up.
