Face the Nation: Salvanto, Pape, Russell

During the second portion of the CBS News program, various current political and social issues were discussed. The conversation included analysis on the latest CBS News poll results which show a neck-and-neck race in key pivotal states—Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—between President Biden and previous President Trump. Anthony Salvanto, who oversees elections and surveys at CBS News, joined the program to offer his insights.

Furthermore, in an atmosphere charged with protests happening across college campuses nationwide, Robert Pape—a professor of political science from the University of Chicago—spoke with the show about the necessity for university administrations to enact measures that could reduce tensions.

In addition, UNICEF's executive director, Catherine Russell, provided a powerful account of her visit to the West Bank, a region under Israeli control, amid escalating violence. She shared her observations of the severe impact this surge in aggression has had, and recounted her meetings with Israeli families whose loved ones have been abducted by Hamas.
