National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, Sen. Mark Warner, Sen. Tammy Duckworth
Description
This week on Face the Nation, a not so hot jobs report leads to more uncertainty about the strength of the economy. Can the independent agencies at the forefront, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Federal Reserve, maintain their independence in light of political pressure? We ask Kevin Hassett and get his take on the state of the economy. Plus, as the circle of critics grows when it comes to HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s handling of vaccines and management of the CDC, we talk to Republican Senator Roger Marshall and the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence committee, Mark Warner, joins us to weigh in on the news of the week. Also, as President Trump renames the Defense Department the Department of War and continues to warn the city of Chicago he'll soon send in federal forces, we talk to Illinois Democrat Senator Tammy Duckworth. Finally, CBS News Executive Director of Elections and Surveys Anthony Salvanto breaks down new polling numbers.
