Subpoenas for Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell

The House select committee investigating the January 6th assault on the U.S. Capitol has subpoenaed several of former President Trump's closest legal associates and allies. The panel is seeking documents and testimony from Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, Sidney Powell and Boris Epshteyn for their roles in challenging the 2020 election results. CBS News senior investigative reporter Catherine Herridge joins "CBSN AM" to discuss the investigation.

How will history judge former President Trump?

A panel of historians is releasing its third collection of essays analyzing and assessing the accomplishments and failures of a presidential administration. But for the first time, a former president, Donald Trump, spoke to the historians to offer his own take on his time in office. Correspondent Rita Braver talks with Princeton University's Julian Zelizer, who assembled the panel, and with the academics who unpack history's first judgment of the 45th president.

The "Big Lie" and the dangers of denying election results

Baseless allegations of election fraud amplified by President Donald Trump fueled the violent siege on the Capitol last January 6, intended to stop the Electoral College certification of Joe Biden's victory. Fallout from conspiracy theories has included death threats and harassment directed toward election officials. CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett talks with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (whom Trump tried to pressure to "find" enough votes that would win him the state), and with other officials who fear denying the results of elections is chipping away at the integrity of our democracy.

DOJ still investigating Capitol Hill rioters

One year after the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol, over 725 people involved in the riots have been arrested. However, authorities are still searching for more than 350 people believed to have committed violent acts that day. CBSN's Meg Oliver sits down with CBS News chief justice and homeland security correspondent Jeff Pegues to discuss what he remembers about that day, and why he believes former President Donald Trump has not yet been charged for inciting the riots.
