This week on Face the Nation, the long-awaited release of the Epstein files has begun, and will that good news about inflation improve America's views about President Trump's handling of the economy?

Our new CBS poll shows that half the country says Trump's policies are making them financially worse off. We check in with CBS News' Executive Director of Elections and Surveys Anthony Salvanto on the latest data. Plus, White House Chief Economic Adviser Kevin Hassett weighs in on state of the economy and more.
