    Feb 1 2026
    This week on 'Face the Nation,' an exclusive interview with Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado. After a whirlwind of meetings in Washington, Machado is projecting optimism about her country's future…even as her own future remains murky, with the party she defeated in nationwide election still holding power with the support of President Trump. What comes next for her and for Venezuelans? Meanwhile the debate over ICE immigration enforcement drives more protests across the country and sparks a fight in Congress over funding for the Department of Homeland Security. We talk to Republican Congressman Michael McCaul about immigration debate that sparked a partial government shutdown. Plus - President Trump's top economic adviser in his first term, Gary Cohn joins us. We ask about the president's new pick to lead the Federal Reserve and the state of the economy as tax season gets underway. Finally - a bipartisan conversation with four of America's mayors on how they're striking a balance between local priorities and federal authority.

    This week on Face the Nation, as a paralyzing winter storm barrels through a vast part of the country, the standoff between federal law enforcement agencies and the Minneapolis community explodes following yet another deadly shooting of a protestor. Alex Pretti was shot and killed Saturday morning outside a donut shop amid what federal officials say was an unrelated immigration operation led by Customs and Border Protection agents. Interpretations of the extensive videos of the shooting are mixed -- and much like the shooting death of Renee Good in Minneapolis just over two weeks ago, federal and state officials are at odds over what happened and why -- and who should investigate. We'll have a report from the scene and talk exclusively to Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara. Then, turn to the bigger picture as Senate Democrats threaten to block funding for ICE and DHS agencies while the public increasingly wary of ICE actions--and the subsequent pushback. We speak with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, Maine Independent Senator Angus King, whose home state is the site of ICE's new deportation operation called "Catch of the Day." We'll also talk with the outgoing Canadian ambassador to the U.S., Kirsten Hillman about the growing divide between the U.S. and our neighbors to the north.

    This week on Face the Nation, tensions continue to boil over in Minneapolis while the president's pursuit of Greenland prompts backlash from allies here and in Europe. Despite temperatures in the low teens, protestors in support of and in opposition to ICE, as well as agents themselves, took to the streets of Minneapolis again Saturday, as the divide between local officials and federal ones got even wider. Plus, America's views of President Trump's immigration policies erode as he hits the one year in office mark. We'll talk exclusively with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and the Mayor of Minneapolis Jacob Frey. Then, with the volatile situation in Iran defused for the moment, President Trump turns to his next international target, Greenland. As U.S. officials tried to calm European allies about his plans, Mr. Trump announced new tariffs on some NATO members if they don't support a deal for the "complete and total purchase of Greenland." The top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee Mark Warner and the head of a bipartisan Congressional group supporting NATO, Republican Mike Turner, will both be here.

    Jan 11 2026
    This week on Face the Nation, anti-ICE protests spread nationwide, and the Trump administration struggles to deal with exploding tensions around the world. Four days after an ICE agent shot and killed a protester in Minneapolis, the struggle to own the narrative of what exactly happened continues, and scrutiny over the use of force by ICE as part of the Trump administration's deportation process intensifies. We talk with Minneapolis-area Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar on the latest in her home state. Then, as the deadly protests in Iran spread, are the regime's days numbered? And what's the Trump administration's red line when it comes to taking more action against Iran? Virginia Democratic Senator Tim Kaine joins us with his assessment on what’s next in the region and his effort to reign in presidential war powers. Finally, the administration tries to work with what's left of Maduro's government, even as they continue to support their now imprisoned former leader as President Trump makes plans to take advantage of Venezuela's oil and mineral rich land. We ask Energy Secretary Chris Wright about where oil talks stand. Plus, Republican Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar joins us to discuss the Venezuelan opposition’s path forward and the reaction in her South Florida district.
