Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan

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.

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.
