This week on Face the Nation, for the first time in 54 years, the al-Assad regime is no longer ruling Syria. Rebel forces who have been fighting the al-Assad government for 13 years swept through Syria in two weeks, capturing Damascus, taking the Syrian people -- and the world -- by surprise. What are the implications for the Middle East? We have the latest from the region...PLUS we talk to the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Ohio Republican Mike Turner…THEN – following a bipartisan congressional task force investigation into the security failures leading to the assassination attempts of Mr. Trump earlier this year, top investigators, Pennsylvania Republican Mike Kelly, and Colorado Democrat Jason Crow, will give us their findings on how to fix the Secret Service. Finally, with the future of controversial social media giant TikTok in doubt, we'll hear from a potential buyer, Frank McCourt, Executive Chairman of McCourt Global. All that and more on Face the Nation.
