The Washington Post reported Sunday that NBC's Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd will be stepping down from Meet the Press starting in September. NBC's current White House correspondent, Kristen Welker will be taking over for Todd, according to The Post. Todd has been the moderator of Meet the Press since 2014 after taking over for David Gregory.

After the news of the shakeup was announced, Welker took to Twitter to praise Todd: "Chuck Todd has been a mentor and friend since my first day at NBC News. I’ve learned so much from sitting with him at the anchor desk and simply experiencing his passion for politics. I'm humbled and grateful to take the baton and continue to build on the legacy of Meet the Press."
