This week on Face the Nation, the Department of Homeland Security is in a shutdown as negotiations over immigration enforcement rules are at a standstill. Two months into the new year, and the government is shut down yet again, this time, only partially, as disputes over President Trump's deportation policy leave lawmakers unable to fund the Department of Homeland Security. Caught in the limbo: TSA agents, the Coast Guard, FEMA employees and thousands of others, some working without pay. We ask Trump's border czar Tom Homan and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries where negotiations stand. Meanwhile, the fallout from the release of Epstein files grows as Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a grilling on Capitol Hill for her department's handling of the investigation. We talk to the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, California Congressman Robert Garcia, about what more he wants to see from the Justice Department as lawmakers get a firsthand look at the unredacted files for the first time. And finally, as world leaders gather at an annual security conference in Munich, we hear about that, and about America's standing in the world, from Republican Senator Thom Tillis.
