SCOURGE OF OUR TIME – The synthetic opioid fentanylwas designed to help patients in unbearable pain. But after making its way from hospitals to communities in every corner of the country, it has ignited the worst drug crisis in U.S. history, killing more than 70,000 Americans last year alone. Bill Whitaker investigates the root causes, from prescription opioids peddled by some of America's largest drug companies to the Mexican cartels' takeover of the illicit fentanyl market, and questions top U.S. officials about what's being done to stem the deadly tide. THE TRUSTBUSTER – Lesley Stahl interviews the youngest-ever chair of the Federal Trade Commission, Lina Khan. The powerful and polarizing trustbuster discusses her determination to enforce antitrust policies as part of the Biden administration's breaking away from 40 years of a hands-off approach.
