Summary

This week on Face the Nation, the U.S. launches a major military strike in the Middle East, as U.S. bombs rained down on dozens of Iran-backed Houthi militant targets in Yemen in a massive air and naval attack ordered by President Trump. How long will this military campaign last, and what kind of a response should we expect from Tehran? We get the latest from Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Special presidential envoy Steve Witkoff is just back from meeting with Putin, aimed at opening peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. We ask him what he learned and where things stand now. Republican Senator Lindsey Graham also weighs in. Finally, we hear from Democratic Governor of Maryland Wes Moore on the impact of cuts to the federal payroll, and Michigan Congresswoman Debbie Dingell on the ripple effects of Trump's trade war with some of America's closest partners. It's all just ahead on Face the Nation. To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
