Synopsis
Secretary of Commerce – Since taking office as the U.S. Secretary of Commerce under the Biden administration, Gina Raimondo has turned the second-tier agency into a center of national security, manufacturing, and job creation. Correspondent Lesley Stahl meets Raimondo to talk about the international "chip war" after Russia invaded Ukraine, the escalating trade tensions with China over U.S. restrictions on the sale of leading-edge semiconductors, and U.S. jobs hanging in the balance. Raimondo also shares the path that brought her to lead President Joe Biden's Department of Commerce. Richard Bonin is the producer. On British Soil – Less than 100 miles from Britain's mainland lie the Channel Islands, British Crown dependencies with a fraught and hotly debated history. 60 MINUTES contributor Holly Williams visits the islands that Germany occupied for five years during World War II and where the Nazis operated two concentration camps. Williams speaks with historians, British government officials, and longtime residents to find out what really happened. Justine Redman and Erin Lyall are the producers. Kevin Hart – Correspondent Anderson Cooper profiles Kevin Hart, the highest-grossing comedian today and a bankable movie star, who is now adding a new title to his resume – entertainment and business mogul. Cooper goes backstage with Hart in Pasadena, Calif., to watch him test out new material for an upcoming comedy tour. He sits down with him at his headquarters in Los Angeles to talk about the business of being funny and his growing empire. Nichole Marks is the producer.
