Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Sen. Mark Kelly, Rep. Mike Turner
This week on Face the Nation, the latest on the fallout following Friday's Oval Office brawl. The debacle seen, and heard, around the world as the meeting was meant to solidify an alliance between the U.S. and Ukraine, but instead melted down into a shouting match featuring President Trump and Vice President Vance versus Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. U.S. and Ukrainian officials are in full damage control mode, with European leaders racing to bring both sides back together and move towards a resolution to the war in Ukraine. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent crafted the agreement with Ukraine that fell apart during that meeting. We talk to him about that as well as the Trump administration's plans to help the economy. Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly and Ohio Republican Mike Turner also weigh in on what the path forward for Ukraine looks like. On the eve of a wave of new tariffs from the Trump administration, Michigan Republican Congressman John James tells us how his district could be impacted. Finally, just before President Trump's first formal address to Congress, how do Americans think he's doing when it comes to tackling their priorities? We break down our new CBS polling for the latest.

Steve Witkoff, Gov. Kathy Hochul, Sen. Chris Van Hollen, Scott Gottlieb
This week on Face the Nation, the president's mission to shrink the federal workforce intensifies, and his foreign policy dealmaking hits a critical juncture. Late Friday, the purge of the federal workforce struck the Pentagon at the top, during a critical moment for our national security, as the new administration seeks peace talks to end Russia's war in Ukraine and as a fragile truce between Israel and Hamas hangs in the balance. We spoke with Trump's top negotiator and envoy, Steve Witkoff. Meanwhile here at home, the president takes aim at Democratic governors who oppose his agenda. We asked New York Governor Kathy Hochul how she's picking her battles with the new administration. Lawmakers are facing some heat from their voters over Trump's push to slash the federal workforce -- led by Elon Musk. Maryland Democrat Chris Van Hollen and Utah Republican John Curtis discuss the impacts on their constituents. Finally, with bird flu, measles and other illnesses on the rise -- and big changes ahead for America's public health agencies, we'll get a reality check from former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb.

This week on Face the Nation President Trump continues to make good on his campaign pledges. What do Americans think of the Trump 2.0 policies and Mr. Trump's performance as president so far? We’ll break down our new CBS News poll with Anthony Salvanto, CBS News' executive director of elections and surveys.

But that revamp is leading to confusion and the consequences are spreading across the country, and around the world.
