Kavanaugh memo on Lewinsky scandal

As confirmation hearings for President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, grow closer, the National Archives is releasing material from Kavanaugh's time working on independent counsel Ken Starr's investigation of the Clinton administration. In a newly released memo from 1998, Kavanaugh writes that he is opposed to giving the president a "break," and includes a series of pointed, and somewhat vulgar, questions for Clinton. Washington Post reporter Eugene Scott joins CBSN's "Red & Blue" to discuss the latest developments and the rest of the day's political headlines.
