This week on Face the Nation, President Trump invites Russia’s Vladimir Putin to America, his first visit to U.S. soil in a decade. After months of Russia skirting cease-fire offers while continuing their brutal onslaught in Ukraine, President Trump skipped past his own sanctions deadline and instead invited Putin to Alaska. We hear from Ukrainian Ambassador Oksana Markarova about what her country needs to agree to a cease-fire. Plus, we ask NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte what a potential deal might mean for European security. Then, Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly and Texas Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales, two lawmakers from border states, tell us how the fresh infusion of cash from Trump's massive domestic policy bill is affecting mass deportation efforts in their states. Finally, the Trump administration says it will slash funding for mRNA vaccine research, an emerging field used in COVID vaccines that also showed promise in treating cancer and HIV. We'll get analysis from Doctor Jerome Adams, who was Surgeon General in Trump's first term.
