Jan. 6 commission bill unlikely to pass Senate

Senate Republicans appeared set early Friday to block a House-passed bill creating a commission to investigate the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Republicans have reversed their initial support for an investigation in recent months, arguing their party should focus instead on retaking Congress in the 2022 midterm elections. CBS News congressional correspondent Kris Van Cleave joins "CBSN AM" live from Capitol Hill ahead of the vote.

Murkowski, Collins favor delay on court vote

Washington is gearing up for a political battle over filling the Supreme Court seat left vacant by the late liberal icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says whoever President Trump nominates would get a Senate vote. But so far, two Republican Senators say they do not support filling the seat before the November election. CBS News chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes joins CBSN's Lana Zak with more on that, and who President Trump is considering for the seat.
