As the Supreme Court is set to rule on whether a former president is shielded from criminal immunity, potential Trump running mate Republican Sen. J.D. Vance tells "Face the Nation" that he's "very confident" that the Supreme Court will "recognize some broad element of presidential discretion." "The president has to be able to do his job in the same way that police officers, judges and prosecutors enjoy some immunity – that principle has to apply to the president."

"Face the Nation" is America's premier Sunday morning public affairs program. The broadcast is one of the longest-running news programs in the history of television, having debuted Nov. 7, 1954, on CBS. Every Sunday, "Face the Nation" moderator and CBS News senior foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan welcomes leaders, newsmakers, and experts to a lively round table discussion of current events and the latest news.
