THE CAPITAL OF FREE RUSSIA – Vladimir Putin has run Russia for 24 years and many of his political opponents end up dead or in exile.

Henry Schuster is the producer.

OUR MISTAKE IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY – Each year, about 1 million Americans receive a bill from the Social Security Administration, saying they were paid too much in benefits and must pay it back. Even if the error is not their fault, they often still have to pay. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports on how some elderly and disabled people have been burdened with tens of thousands of dollars in debt. Andy Court is the producer.

LAW OF THE SEA – 60 MINUTES reports on the mad dash in the Eastern Pacific for the vast quantities of critical minerals strewn on the sea floor – vital for almost all of today’s electronics. Mining the international seabed could start next year and China is set to dominate it. But in this crucial race, America is nowhere – sidelined by a group of Republican senators who refuse to ratify the UN’s Law of the Sea. Unless it does, America is locked out of competing for those underwater riches. Correspondent Bill Whitaker looks at the consequences of the Senate logjam over the Law of the Sea. Heather Abbott is the producer.
