Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan

Today on Face the Nation, breaking overnight: Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has died from what his office calls a "brief and sudden illness" at the age of 71. We'll have the latest and we'll talk with fellow South Carolina Senator Tim Scott about his impact in Washington and beyond.

 

Plus, new developments overseas as U.S. Central Command has launched a new wave of strikes against Iran after its military force attacked a container ship in the Strait of Hormuz, in defiance of U.S. demands to keep the waterway open. What's next for the security of the region, after President Trump declared that fragile ceasefire deal to be "over"? We'll be joined by former CENTCOM commander Frank McKenzie, Republican Ohio Congressman Mike Turner, and Israel's Ambassador, Dr. Michael Leiter.

 

We'll also talk with Democrat Rahm Emanuel, who's just back from delivering a speech in Tel Aviv about the future of U.S.-Israeli relations.

 

It's all just ahead, on Face the Nation.

This week on Face the Nation, America celebrates its 250th birthday. We try to put politics aside and a take look at some of the things that make this nation so unique.

Despite record breaking temperatures sweeping across much of the nation, Americans came out over the weekend to honor the country's 250th year of independence. Fireworks, parades, flyovers, and red, white and blue were all on display. 

We take a look at one thing that is proving difficult to fix, America’s immigration system. Two members of Congress who immigrated here, Florida Republican Carlos Gimenez and New York Democrat Adriano Espaillat, will tell us their stories and why immigrants were important in shaping America’s past and why they are still important in fortifying America's future. 

Plus, the final frontier. As America reboots its quest to lead the world in space exploration, we reflect on our history, and take a look at what's ahead with NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. 

And, we take look at the pastimes that have dominated American culture. This country is driven by competition, and winning, and few things unite us as much as love of the game. We talk about the changes in college sports, the proving ground for young American athletes, with the head of the NCAA, former Massachusetts governor Charlie Baker.

Extended Interview: Senator Bill Cassidy

This week on Face the Nation, the fragile detente between the US and Iran is disrupted and tensions over the war with Iran explode between President Trump and the Republican Senator he worked to defeat.
Following a Capitol Hill shouting match between President Trump and Louisiana Republican Bill Cassidy over the Senator's vote against the war with Iran, we spoke exclusively with Cassidy about that exchange, his relationship with the President and his thoughts on the administration's health policy agenda as Cassidy wraps up his Senate career. 
We also speak to Virginia Senator Tim Kaine about the shift of the Democratic party to the left and check in on all the other news of the week. 
Finally, the Supreme Court is on the verge of wrapping up this session, for some analysis on last week's key decisions and a look ahead to those last few cases, we turn to chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford.

This week on Face the Nation, Vice President Vance and Iranian officials meet face to face in Switzerland to kick off a 60 day period of talks to resolve the nuclear issue, but the Trump administration is finding that their path to peace is complicated. 

 

Saying he wanted to avert "economic catastrophe," due to the shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz, the President negotiates an agreement with Iran that's far short of the goals he's set in the nearly 4 month conflict. Did the president wind up with the short end of the deal? We’ll discuss the latest with UN Ambassador Mike Waltz, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, and a key democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, Colorado's Jason Crow. It's all just ahead on Face the Nation.

This week on Face the Nation, the U.S. and Iran might be on the brink of a preliminary peace deal. As the nation's capital gets ready for a UFC fight night on president Trump's birthday, officials say a deal to end a war in the Middle East is imminent. 
We get the latest in an exclusive interview with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Plus, we hear from two key Democrats on committees with oversight on national security, Senators Mark Warner and Mark Kelly.
Then, despite a sharp jump in the inflation rate, now at its highest level in three years, President Trump is optimistic the end of the war will also mean the end of surging energy prices. 

We get a reality check from one of Trump's top economic advisers from his first term, IBM Vice Chairman Gary Cohn.

Extended Interview: Co-Founder and CEO of With Honor Rye Barcott

President Trump's grand plan for the Washington DC skyline isn't the only thing shaking up the city this summer. Last week he appointed a man with NO intelligence experience to head up the top agency in the intelligence community.

 Bill Pulte, who serves as the director of the federal housing finance agency, is the heir to a building fortune and close to the President. He's rubbed some cabinet members the wrong way.

And his appointment has sparked concern among even Republicans trying to reauthorize a surveillance program that's due to expire this week. The top Democrat on the House Intel committee Jim Himes will be here today. Nebraska Republican Congressman Don Bacon also joins us.

Meanwhile, Democrats are keeping close watch on Tuesday's Maine Senate primary as their candidate faces some alarming allegations of past aggressive behavior. We talk with a top Graham Platner supporter, California Democrat Ro Khanna.

Finally...should the government have more control over the exploding field of Artificial Intelligence? Plus a conversation about the virtue of courage in public service
