Lawmakers question what led to Iran strike

Sources tell CBS News that threats and imminent attacks against embassies were not mentioned to lawmakers in their briefing on President Trump’s decision to kill an Iranian general. At a rally Thursday night, Mr. Trump did not offer any evidence of planned attacks, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said later that he didn't know the targets of any planned attacks. Nancy Cordes reports on the growing controversy over exactly what led the U.S. to assassinate General Soleimani.
