This week on Face the Nation, President Trump begins the next phase of his agenda with a key staff shakeup. Mike Waltz is out as National Security Adviser, and Secretary Marco Rubio is in, adding another job to his growing list of responsibilities. With Trump's push for a nuclear deal with Iran and an end to Russia's war in Ukraine, we'll ask Republican Mike Turner about the impact of the shuffle. We'll also get insights from one of Trump's national security advisers in his first term, retired Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster. Plus, Illinois Democratic Senator Tammy Duckworth will join us with an update on the Armed Services Committee's bipartisan request for a probe into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's conduct. As the U.S. and Ukraine finalize their new economic deal, what does that mean for the security relationship between the two countries? We'll get the latest and more from Ukrainian Ambassador Oksana Markarova. And finally, as President Trump seeks to end federal funding to public broadcasting, we'll ask NPR CEO Katherine Maher and PBS CEO Paula Kerger about the impact and how they plan to fight back.

David Waldman delivers us to the end of the week. Anyone not detained this weekend for acts of dispatriotism can meet back here on Monday. Russia seems to use David's random country generator to pick out its disinformation targets. Today it's Austria! SignalGate! It turns out that you can get in a lot of trouble for accidentally adding a reporter to a group email. “You” are not, however, one of the morons on the Houthi PC Small Group chat. Those folks are in a special protected class of super-morons. The more stupidity linked to them, such as public Venmo accounts with payments to eggplants, the more they are called out, such as Senator Tammy Duckworth calling Pete Hegseth “a f*cking liar” who needs to resign in disgrace, the more Donald K. Trump will defend them and lock down Gops from doing anything about it. Hillary Clinton writing an op-ed for the Times has secured Pete Hegseth the job for life. Trump is afraid of confrontation and making any decisions tougher than picking out colors anyhow. Elise Stefanik, on the other hand, isn't that much of a dangerous idiot to become concerned about. Trump figured that she could break just as much stuff if she kept her old job. Trump is cutting the “racial stuff” from the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and “gender” from the American Women's history museum, as well as “improper ideology” from the National Zoo. Thinking incorrectly at a university can earn you a free sightseeing trip in an unmarked van with a canvas bag on your head.  Trump's sister declared the immigration law he used “unconstitutional”. While we're talking about Trumps, Vanessa Trump is in a relationship with Tiger Woods! Yep, Vanessa sure has a thing for those “bad boys”… Wait, who is Vanessa Trump?

Este lunes un artículo publicado por Jeffrey Goldberg, editor en jefe de The Atlantic, ha destapado una de las filtraciones relativas a la seguridad nacional más sorprendentes de la historia reciente de Estados Unidos. Goldberg revelaba que hace unos días fue añadido a un chat de grupo en la aplicación Signal donde altos cargos de la administración Trump, entre ellos el secretario de Defensa Pete Hegseth y al vicepresidente JD Vance, discutían planes detallados sobre el ataque a los hutíes en Yemen. Este evento, rápidamente bautizado como "Signalgate", ha desatado una tormenta de críticas y ha hecho que muchos se pregunten sobre las medidas de seguridad del nuevo Gobierno respecto a la información de alto secreto. En el grupo, titulado "Houthi PC Small Group", había un total de 18 participantes, entre ellos figuras clave del Gobierno como el asesor de Seguridad Nacional Michael Waltz que, al parecer, fue quien invitó a Goldberg por error, el secretario de Estado Marco Rubio y la directora de Inteligencia Nacional Tulsi Gabbard. Según Goldberg, el 15 de marzo, horas antes de que los bombardeos contra objetivos hutíes comenzaran, Hegseth compartió un mensaje con detalles operativos específicos: tipos de armas, objetivos y cronogramas. "Sabía que el ataque se iba a producir dos horas antes de que explotaran las primeras bombas", ha dicho Goldberg, que inicialmente dudó de la autenticidad del chat, pero confirmó que era cierto cuando se produjo el primer ataque en Saná, la capital de Yemen. La conversación reveló tensiones internas dentro del gabinete. Vance expresó dudas sobre la operación, argumentando que beneficiaría más a Europa que a Estados Unidos, ya que Europa es mucho más dependiente del comercio por el canal de Suez que Estados Unidos. Sugirió incluso que la operación se retrasase un mes para evaluar el impacto económico y alinearlo con el mensaje de Trump sobre la autosuficiencia europea. "No estoy seguro de que el presidente sepa cuán inconsistente es esto con su discurso sobre Europa", dijo Vance de forma textual. Hegseth, por su parte, defendió la urgencia advirtiendo que retrasarse podría permitir filtraciones o ceder la iniciativa a Israel. A pesar de las diferencias, el ataque se ejecutó con éxito, según el Consejo de Seguridad Nacional, que calificó a ese grupo como una "coordinación reflexiva”. La inclusión de Goldberg en el chat expuso una brecha de seguridad de la que no hay precedentes. Signal, aunque encriptada, no está aprobada para discusiones secretas del Gobierno, que normalmente requieren canales seguros como la Sala de Situación de la Casa Blanca. Expertos en inteligencia han calificado el incidente como "asombroso" y “peligroso”. Han señalado que la presencia de un periodista en una discusión de esta naturaleza constituye una violación grave de los protocolos de seguridad operativa. Las reacciones no se hicieron esperar. Trump minimizó el incidente afirmando que no sabía nada al respecto y atacando a The Atlantic como un medio "en quiebra". Hegseth negó haber compartido "planes de guerra", tildando a Goldberg de "deshonesto", mientras Waltz asumió la responsabilidad por el error técnico. Sin embargo, figuras como la senadora Tammy Duckworth y el exsecretario Pete Buttigieg han exigido dimisiones. Los demócratas piden una investigación en profundidad, mientras que para los republicanos se trata de un error menor. El "Signalgate" plantea de cualquier modo una serie de preguntas: ¿cómo pudo un error tan elemental comprometer información sensible? ¿Qué revela sobre la competencia del círculo cercano de Trump? El Gobierno se cerrado sobre sí mismo y todo lo que esperan es que el temporal amaine cuanto antes.

The Senate confirmation hearings are underway for the Trump transition team and Pete Hegseth kicked things off with a bang. Democrats hurled some fiery darts at Hegseth and they all seemed to fall flat. Tim Kaine's deranged hypotheticals and insinuations about drinking and marital problems got a strong rebuke from Senator MarkWayne Mullins when he asked "how many of you have voted drunk at night or had a divorce?" Senator Tammy Duckworth attempted a gotcha moment by posing a question about ASEAN which is an economic agreement between Southeast Asian countries.

Send us a textIs America truly a democracy, or are billionaires pulling the strings behind the scenes? Dive into the fiery confirmation hearing of Pete Hexick, President Trump's controversial nominee for the Department of Defense. We delve into the explosive exchanges during the hearing, as Democrats like Tim Kaine, Elizabeth Warren, and Tammy Duckworth scrutinize Hexick's qualifications and past statements, including those on women in combat roles and alleged workplace misconduct. I provide a candid assessment of Hexick's responses, arguing whether he stands up to the scrutiny or falls short of expectations within the broader debate about women's roles in the military.The conversation takes a sharp turn into the murky waters of American democracy and the influential power of billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg over public policy. We uncover how their financial clout diminishes the regulatory power of institutions meant to safeguard the public, such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I'll expose the strategic erosion of trust in government agencies and the unaccounted role of tech companies in spreading misinformation, shaking the democratic norms we once held dear. This leads to a reflection on whether American democracy is morphing into an oligarchy, with profound implications for the future.Finally, the episode tackles the intersection of sports, social evolution, and politics, particularly concerning the inclusion of transgender athletes in traditional sports categories. This spurs a discussion on the political climate post-Trump's re-election and the unsettling capitulation of tech and media giants to his administration's whims. From Mark Zuckerberg's controversial actions to Jeff Bezos's involvement and ABC News's legal entanglements, we'll consider how Trump's influence reverberates across industries. The potential rise of authoritarianism and its impact on democratic integrity will be laid bare, making for a thought-provoking and comprehensive exploration of these pressing issues.

“You have not earned your place as Secretary of Defense. You, sir, are a no-go at this station,” Senator Tammy Duckworth said during the confirmation hearing of Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for Defense Secretary. Duckworth challenged Hegseth on his qualifications in a series of pointed exchanges. At one point, Duckworth asked Hegseth about the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). “And how many nations are in ASEAN, by the way?” she asked. “I couldn't tell you the exact amount of nations in that,” Hegseth replied. “But I know we have allies in South Korea, in Japan, and in AUKUS with Australia, and trying to work on submarines with them.” Duckworth responded sharply, “Mr. Hegseth, none of those countries are in ASEAN.” She also pressed him on his ability to oversee budget audits, highlighting his lack of experience. “I will take that as a no,” Duckworth said. “What were the findings? So there were no findings, because you've never led an audit. What guidance did you give the auditors? None, because you've never led an audit.” During the Senate Armed Forces Committee hearing, lawmakers questioned Hegseth's opposition to women in combat, his stance against diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, and allegations of excessive drinking and sexual misconduct.
