With all the news - good and bad, but mostly bad - generated by the Tony Dokoupil-led "CBS Evening News," it's hard to believe it has only been a week since he took over as anchor. Hand-picked by new CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss - whose own brief tenure has drawn well-deserved criticism - Dokoupil has had a series of questionable moments, from stumbles over which story was airing next to a cringeworthy and bizarre "salute" to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and comments about the anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Driving the news: "You've got to win the midterms," he said to an audience of House Republicans during their member retreat. "Because if we don't win the midterms, it's just going to be, I mean, they'll find a reason to impeach me." Trump said his first term impeachments were "for nothing." State of play: His remarks come on the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and days after the Trump administration's capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on Saturday.
