. >> first of all, i would like to fact-check stephanie ruhle because conservatives are not seizing onthis week, we are pouncing on the crime problem. i wonder if they are trying to force the democrats to care about crime and take it more seriously, not to stop the bloodshed in the streets, but because they need to stop the republicans. be that is a sort of very strange way to come at it but it theremight be something to that. i saw a piece last week, top democrats quietly whispering that we are very concerned -- and they are like okay, you don't half to whisper it, you can go to war with your own base. they don't want to do that. if they are going to make an adjustment in midstream it might be too late because there is a hard core element of their base that will never accept it and voters have been awake for the last two years. we have seen what is happened, and now, like, a tweak of the messaging, with james carville is a clearly begging them to try, i think that would be sort of window dressing at this point because the results speak for themselves. >> greg: yeah, it is ironic, judg

my thanks to stephanie ruhle for filling in here last night. have a good weekend, unless you have other plans, on behalf of all of our colleagues here at the networks of nbc news, good night. >>> this woman, says she's a doctor who is invited to speak to the ohio legislature by a republican lawmaker to the ohio legislature by a republican lawmake of the covid vaccine. she was billed as a witness, the expert kind. an expert witness to help inform the legislature's opinion about whether to pass legislation around covid vaccines. this is how that went. i'm sure you've seen the pictures all over the internet of people who have the shots now they are magnetize and put a king on their forehead, spoons, forks, and it sticks. now we think there is a metal piece to that. there's been people how long suspected that there was some sort of an interface yet to be defined, between what's being injected in the shots and all the 5g towers. not proven yet. >> not proven yet. the operative word there is yet. this came right after the testimony. >> i just found o

i'm stephanie ruhle in for brian williams who has the night off.is day 177 in the biden administration and tonight there are brand-new explosive revelations about the last days of the trump presidency and the chaos of january 6th. they are from the new book "i alone can fix it" by philip rucker. they write that after seeing the riot unfold, trump's own white house council feared trump could be brought up on charges. quote, the afternoon of january 6th, it started dawning on the white house counsel and deputies that trump could be charged with a crime for setting off that deadly riot. there were a lot of ifs about weather that was likely, but one thing was guaranteed, investigations. any good prosecutor would examine what the president, donald j. trump, rudy giuliani and others had said at the rally. they could be accused of sedition, a charge not leveled at a president in a century. also tonight, covid cases are climbing around the country. some officials are now bringing back mask mandates. miguel almaguer has the latest. >> reporter: tonight los

this, this is discussion that happened on msnbc about mandates for vaccines t was led by anchor stephanie ruhleot of bailout money, should pay it back by mandating vaccines. >> the only wray to change the dynamic, especially places where there is hesitancy is to have a requirement. if you can't get on an airplane without a vaccination, that is going to change the dynamic. the airlines took an enormous amount of taxpayer money, enormous amount of tax payer in money. we all supported them. >> enormous. say it out loud. they have to deal with customers. they have to deal with employees. they wouldn't have either one if the government hadn't given them billions and billions of dollars last year. so maybe they could pay the government back and say yes, we'll help try to get people vaccinated. elizabeth: congressman, what do you say? >> well, first of all it is not the government paying anyone. it is taxpayer dollars but the democrats always tend to forget that part. number two, it is right back to the default, you know, play in their playbook, which is mandates. whether mandating lockdowns. mandatin

marty walsh told stephanie ruhle that the republicans have that wrong. >> we look at the states where to drop the unemployment extend extended benefit, and we have not seen a reduction of people going back to work. we have not seen it in the last month. i believe they need expanded unemployment. they need it to keep food on the table, keep a roof over their head. this has been a difficult year for a lot of people. >> some state officials are facing backlash for trying to end the jobless benefits early. governor larry hogan of maryland which takes away aid today has been hit not with one but two lawsuits so far over his decision to do so. residents in texas and indiana are suing to have their benefits reinstated. the situation serves as a reminder that while the country looks to be making economic strides as the pandemic tapers off, the numbers do not tell the whole story. the truth is there are many americans out there who still need help desperately. and gop state leaders won't give it to them because they'd rather put budgets over the people they serve. >>> we're hoping the 4fourth

our colleague, stephanie ruhle, had a chance to talk to bezos and his brother shortly after they returneds have to say in terms of the significance of the science and vision for the future of space travel? >> reporter: he had plenty to say and he was quick to say this is merely the first step of many. let's not forget it took 15 test flights to get here. this was the first manned mission. now that it did go according to plan, hope to have another in september and october, reusing the same rocket as today. bezos has a big picture plan in place for the future of space travel. hear him describe it in his own words. >> we have to build a road to space so our kids and their kids can build a future. we need to take all heavy industry, polluting industry, and move it into space, keep earth as this gem of a planet that it is. >> reporter: while bezos is an easy target for critics, it is merely a billionaire taking advantage of his wealth to go for a joy ride in space. if he has his vision continued, there will be much more to come. i have to tell you, out here in rough terrain west texas in horn,
