Baseless allegations of election fraud amplified by President Donald Trump fueled the violent siege on the Capitol last January 6, intended to stop the Electoral College certification of Joe Biden's victory. Fallout from conspiracy theories has included death threats and harassment directed toward election officials.

U.S.: Taking the plunge
Members of the South End Rowing Club test their bodies and minds by swimming in the murky and very cold waters of San Francisco Bay, braving currents, boats, sea life and hypothermia. Correspondent Luke Burbank, eager to prove his mettle, joined in.
She's been an artistic chameleon for more than six decades. Now, at 82, Judy Chicago is being celebrated with her first career retrospective, at San Francisco's de Young Museum. Correspondent Martha Teichner talked with Chicago about how she gave up being like "one of the boys" in a male-dominated art world, to forge her own identity; her landmark piece, "The Dinner Party"; and the subsequent work that has defined her as an artist of unusual breadth.
After experiencing the loss of a child, Liam, a preemie who died at just five weeks, Mattie Mitchell has been the unseen hand behind an untold number of joyful surprises in Nashville, Tennessee. In the 10 years since she formed the nonprofit Liam Changed the World, Mitchell has performed hundreds of good deeds, each time reuniting in spirit with her son. Steve Hartman reports.
The Maryland Democrat witnessed the attack on Congress by insurrectionists on January 6, 2021, but he'd already experienced an even darker day, when his 25-year-old son, Thomas, took his own life. Correspondent Rita Braver talks with Jamie Raskin about the pain of that loss; his new book, "Unthinkable"; and his determination to hold accountable those responsible for an attempted coup.
U.S.: Oysters: The pearls of Cape Cod
In the chill of winter, when most tourists have migrated, you'll find professional and amateur shellfishers alike uncovering oysters from the waters of Cape Cod Bay.

COMMENTARY: Gen. Steve Anderson on January 6 and the "domestic cancer" threatening American democracy

For Tony Award-winner Hugh Jackman, who has returned to Broadway in the revival of "The Music Man," being a chronically nice guy is more than just an act (even though he does have a little Professor Harold Hill in him). He talks with "Sunday Morning" host Jane Pauley about his youthful drive to appear on stage; and about making connections – whether it's with an audience, a dance partner, or a father struggling with Alzheimer's.
He had a hit with his breakout single "Old Town Road," about a horse-loving hip hop cowboy. But for his debut album, Lil Nas X wrote songs about his real life as a gay man, and called the album by his real first name, "Montero." The multiple-Grammy-nominee talked with correspondent Tracy Smith about reinventing himself, as his true self.
