the book is called "project hail mary." >> "project hail mary" is a bunch of different story ideas thatfrom short walks with his dog cocoa, andy weir has spent most of the last year plus cooped up at home. the travel he's avoided is more than made up for by his latest hero, a teacher-turned-astronaut who spends most of "project hail mary" 72 trillion miles away from earth. >> ryland is our protagonist who wakes up aboard a spaceship with complete amnesia. he comes to realize it's his job to save all of humanity from an existential extinction level event. >> a mysterious algae-like substance is eating away at the sun slowly plunging our planet into a new ice aimige. >> it's like climate change in reverse. >> not enough energy is hitting earth. >> we won't spoil anything but weir's knowledge of science and skill at story telling make even the most insane concepts seem plausible. >> oxygen level critical. >> in his breakout novel "the martian" astronaut mark watney played by matt damon in the 2015 film is stranded on mars in the year 2035 and forced to improvise to survive. >> so, yeah, i

in axios one big thing is republicans' hail mary.cture with the white house before democrats pack up and go it alone. our friends hans nichols is reporting that some senators are thinking that one way to do this would be to add to the national deficit to pay for these infrastructure projects. so they don't want to raise taxes, so what could be perhaps politically easier? just put it on the tab. and kasie, the why it matters of this is that the trump years showed republicans that there's no price to be paid for just continuing to run up the deficit. that the old years of the republican deficit hawks are gone and that politically, this is a fine place to be. >> it's really remarkable. mike, you and i both know, it wasn't really that long ago that that seemed to be the only issue that mattered to republicans. the debt ceiling, they took stands on this how many times? but it's a great point. mike, let's talk shortly about ambassadorship. senator claire mccaskill, who we see here on msnbc quite a bit, under consideration for an ambassador

we call it a hail mary when your back is against the wall, when you're desperate, you know defeat is inevitable. you have to do something. so he took what he could not dispute, so i -- scientific evidence and he weaved a story loosely based on the facts but doesn't make any sense. >> martha: yeah. also a video of his car. i would imagine with the technology that we have today, you'd probably be able to figure out if there were two other individuals in the car with him, i'd imagine. there's no evidence whatsoever in the course of this case that there were finger parents or any other materials in his car that would prove that there had been anyone else in that car, right? >> right. completely transparent what he's doing here. they need to do something. they can't twiddle their thumbs. they waived their opening statement. they didn't have anything. what also doesn't make sense, let's run with it for a second. two guys that conveniently, he can't describe because they're wearing masks, that was great. somehow target what we learned from the lead detective who was a victim tantamount to s

>> it's a bit of a hail mary motion. there are reasons, judge, you should reverse the verdict.nt issues an appellate court will look at. number one, was there so much pretrial publicity, this case should have been moved to another county in minnesota where there had been less public exposure, and as a result, were the jurors who were selected, were they compromised? remember, they were not sequestered. the defense asked for a seques sequestration. this was not a long trial. you could have sequestered them to protect them from the public. the second thing that's interesting in the motion, the defense talks about the cumulative impact of the many, many errors made by the trial court, one, not recording lawyers making objections at sidebar, critical objections in the case, and a couple of other issues as well about evidence they offered that didn't get into evidence. so i think it's an interesting motion. i don't know that it will carry the day, but the record is being set for the appellate court to some day take a second look at the case. >> a couple of things. as you mentioned.

it was a hail mary, they passed it, and it will always be there now, it would be hard to scale those things back. i think they see this as their moment and they will take advantage of it. hanlon: i think none of this will be easy to pass through congress, especially with the in margins but i think something will get done and i think it will be fairly monumental. i think it is responding to decades of the erosion of economic security of american families, and what president biden is proposing, and we have talked about the tax hikes, we need to remind ourselves of what he is proposing on the investment side, because that is really what is driving this, is universal pre-k, free community college. bold investments in infrastructure, broadband, r&d, a national pay family medical leave program. tax credits for working families with children that is going to lower the poverty rate nearly in half. these are monumental investments , and i think this is the moment to do it. and i think that certainly, the tax cuts will be pored over. there is going to be a lot lobbying against it, there alread
