Over at CBS News, Bari Weiss has staffers at “60 Minutes” nervous about how she will overhaul the show. We've learned exclusive new details about what Weiss is privately floating during meetings about the newsmagazine’s future. Plus, MAGA Media has had it with Donald Trump.

Oliver and Jon break it all down—and answer viewer questions during Open Lines at the end of the episode. 0:00 Intro 1:32 Trump Attending the White House Correspondent’s Dinner 15:40 60 Minutes Staffers Brace for Bari Weiss Shake-Up 25:29 MAGA Media Eviscerates Trump 36:01 Open Lines: Oliver and Jon Answer Listener Questions Thanks to our sponsor, beehiiv, the platform that powers the Status newsletter!
