Meet the Press: The Ongoing Collapse

Life, Liberty & Levin is everything Meet the Press once was.

In 2007, a brilliant moderator named Tim Russert hosted the important Sunday news program called Meet the Press (MTP). Then, 12 years ago, MTP attracted 821,000 viewers aged 25 to 54.

The history of MTP is a storied one. It is considered the longest-running program in television history with its inaugural episode airing in 1947.

But the days of bipartisan comity and friendly debate ended with the unfortunate passing of Russert in 2008. After several false starts (does the name David Gregory ring a bell?), Chuck Todd was named the host in 2014.

A SALUTE TO @CHUCKTODD AND @MEETTHEPRESS: Shot and Chaser

The CIA and FBI supposedly work for the President... but they are actively at war with the President.

It begs the question: if they don’t answer to the President, who are they accountable to?
