Chuck Todd out at NBC News​


Chuck Todd, the former moderator of "Meet the Press," is leaving NBC News.


Todd, who has become a noticeably less visible presence on the network after he was replaced as "Meet the Press" moderator by Kristen Welker in 2023 after nine years in the chair, announced he would exit NBC on Friday.

"Today is my last day… at NBC," Todd said on his podcast.

"I am leaving a bit earlier than we had all originally planned, but there is a reason for it. I’m pretty excited by a few new projects that are on the cusp," Todd added. "The podcast is coming with me, and it’s not going away."

Todd said he would go on a "little hiatus" and then select a new home for the podcast.


Todd, who has been at the heart of NBC News’ political coverage for 18 years, first joined the network in 2007. There has been widespread speculation that Todd was seeking a new opportunity after seeing his role at NBC get scaled back in recent years.

"We’re grateful for Chuck’s many contributions to our political coverage during his nearly two-decade career at NBC News and for his deep commitment to Meet the Press and its enduring legacy. We wish him all the best in his next endeavors," an NBC News spokesperson told Variety.

NBC News did not immediately respond to a request for additional comment. .....

When will they start seeing through Trump's?

Seems long overdue.

Some of them are seeing through his meme coin Ponzi scheme.

"Many MAGA fans on the subreddit believed that Trump's meme coin was a quick cash-grab at the expense of his fans, many of whom may have plugged significant chunks of cash into it early on, only to see its value quickly evaporate.

Among other things, posters on the forum described the coin as "degrad[ing] to the office of the Presidency,” “a lame money grab,” “a bad idea with a million ways to go wrong and derail his second term,” “shady,” and “kinda gross."

Another poster argued that Trump's meme coin "looks bad and is bad," while yet another declared that "this crypto is the most blatant Ponzi scheme in history and we are the marks."

Not for a second with Trump. I'm not even a Democrat - but I don't understand at all how anyone can sing this lying narcissist's praises.

His 1st admin was basically a disaster, and the 1st week+ of this one is basically the same. People who think this is good governance have lost their compass.
