Steve Bannon charged with contempt of Congress

Former Trump White House strategist Steve Bannon is facing two criminal charges after defying subpoenas from the House select committee investigating the January 6 assault on the Capitol. Another Trump administration official could also soon be held in contempt of Congress. CBS News congressional correspondent Nikole Killion reports, and CBS News legal contributor Rebecca Roiphe joins CBSN to discuss what this means for the rest of the investigation.

Future of GOP amid pro-January 6 protest

Law enforcement increased security measures ahead of Saturday's protest in Washington, D.C., as demonstrators showed support for the rioters who were charged for their roles in the attack on the U.S. Capitol in January. A recent poll shows 61% of Republicans say former President Trump was not responsible for the attack, and about 27% of Republicans say it's very or somewhat likely he will be reinstated as president by the end of the year. Jennifer Lim, founder and executive director of Republican Women for Congress, and Kevin Sheridan, former Republican National Committee spokesman, joined CBSN to discuss the future of the GOP.
