This week on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan,” Republican Rep. French Hill and Democratic Rep. Jim Himes join as we take a look at some of President-elect Donald Trump’s controversial picks for his Cabinet and other senior staff positions. Plus, an interview with Dr. Deborah Birx, who served as White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator in the first Trump administration.

Democratic Rep. Jim Himes of Connecticut says he’s “skeptical” that Elon Musk has “got any clue” about government efficiency, despite that President-elect Donald Trump selected Musk to oversee a department on it.

Gov. Andy Beshear, who won reelection in 2023 as a Democrat in a deep red Kentucky, tells “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that there are “absolute lessons that we can learn” from his state as the party tries to regroup after President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.
