60 Minutes — The Prosecution of Jan. 6 | Danger in the South China Sea | Dua Lipa (S57E01)

Synopsis

The Prosecution of Jan. 6 – More than 1,000 Americans have been convicted in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol that stopped the count of electoral votes and triggered the largest prosecution in U.S. history. As the FBI continues to search for suspects, Scott Pelley meets with some of those at the center of the story: a man who was among the first to breach the Capitol, a Metropolitan police officer who was injured that day, a retired judge who studied the 2020 election and top prosecutor U.S. attorney Matthew Graves. Danger in the South China Sea – It's been called "the most dangerous conflict no one is talking about," and Cecilia Vega sees firsthand just how dangerous it can be when the Philippine ship she is traveling on gets rammed by China's coast guard. Vega examines how the growing tensions between China and the Philippines over territory in the South China Sea could lead to U.S. involvement.  Dua Lipa – Many teenagers want to become pop stars, but few convince their parents to let them pack their bags and move to another country to make it big. That's precisely what Dua Lipa did when she was 15 years old, trading Pristina, Kosovo, for London. Anderson Cooper talks with her about her journey from unknown songwriter to international sensation, with her songs streaming more than 45 billion times.
