Summary

This week on Face the Nation, it’s Iowa Caucus Eve, but the traditional presidential campaign kickoff this year is anything but. In 2024, the starting line on the road to the Republican nomination is an icy one with subzero wind chill temperatures predicted for Monday’s Iowa Caucuses. But with the once robust GOP field shrinking, few candidates are still committed. We'll have some striking insights into voters’ thoughts on the frontrunner’s rhetoric and his policies. We’ll have expert analysis from our CBS News political correspondents and Amy Walter of the Cook Political Report. We'll talk to GOP presidential contender and former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson about his ongoing campaign and New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu on the momentum behind his preferred candidate, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley. West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin also joins us. Finally, White House National Security Council coordinator John Kirby about the escalation of tensions in the Middle East and the growing controversy over Defense Secretary Lloyd's Austin's secret hospitalization.
