morning with a raging hangover! wondering what the hell happened last night? announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by toyota. let's go place. welcome to "cbs this morning." we begin with a dramatic res >> this rescue effort came after violent storms swept over the east coast. the storm brought down a home in the bronx but no one was hurt. falling power lines on long fire. the powerful band of storms is responsible for at least eight

several tornadoes ripped through virginia killing four. chip reid is south of richmond place. chip, good morning. >> reporter: i'm standing in the middle of what used to be a small mobile home park here in waverly, virginia. this was the laundromat. it was made of brick and cinder block but it's been completely destroyed. walk down here. take a look at this. the trailer behind the bushes that is largely destroyed, we talked to a man who lived there. he can hardly believe he's alive because on the other side of that trailer is where another trailer used to be and that is where three people including a 2-year-old child died. a deadly storm system lashed the east coast wednesday, pummeling it with violent winds. and torrential rain. multiple tornadoes were reported

people have died and dozens more have been injured. >> a tornado just came through right on 460 right now. tore place to pieces. >> reporter: three died here in waverly. a 2-year-old child and two men who were found 300 yards from their own home. vincent donald lived next door. >> spinning and lift the roof. i survived. >> reporter: in pennsylvania more than 30,000 people lost power and tornado warnings were issued and several homes were torn apart. >> you hear stuff tossing and turning. we heard debris and this is just, like, not even real. >> reporter: a steady downpour led to flash flooding in and around washington, d.c. where drivers slogged through the evening commute. >> tree just fell down. >> reporter: at least three tornadoes were reported in north carolina. straight line winds and pounding rains toppled trees and cut one home nearly in half. time lapse video shows the storm

>> that is one wild storm. >> reporter: the system made its way to the northeast where strong gusts flipped over this truck in new york. and in new jersey, manhole covers were spent flying into the air. the wet weather caused underground electric explosions in elizabeth. first responders spent the night going through this area, going through this incredible debris field, trying to make sure there is nobody unaccounted for. there is still, apparently, some question whether this was officially a tornado. just look. it's hard to believe it could have been anything other than that. >> i'll say. the pictures really tell the store there. firefighters in indiana rescued more than two dozen drivers trapped for hours on a snowy eye. an accident during the snowstorm made the word impassible. two fire trucks got stuck in six feet of snow and firefighters faced strong winds and blinding snow and walked car-to-car to bring 30 people to safety. donald trump is facing

morning from the last republican presidential nominee, mitt romney. he claims the republican front-runner has not released his tax returns because they may contain a bombshell. trump tweeted in response that taxes made romney, quote, look like a fool in 2012. he sarcastically called romney a tough guy. major garrett in washington looked at the issue that may affect tonight's republican debate in houston. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. on the republican debate stage tonight in houston, mitt romney -- no, no, not in person, of course. but through this issue of tax returns that he lobbed at donald trump yesterday. trump has dismissed romney through this campaign as a weak nominee who should have won in 2012. trump's republican rivals at another texas forum last night, they sided with romney. >> they are not exotic but we will release them. >> very glad to release tax returns. >> nothing to hide.

>> the nice thing i haven't made enough money that my tax returns are not that interesting. >> reporter: donald trump closest rivals had no problem respond from a challenge to 2012 nominee mitt romney who had this to say about trump's tax returns. >> frankly, i think we have good reason to believe that there is a bombshell in donald trump's taxes. every time he is asked about his taxes, he dodges and delays and says, well, we are working on it. >> reporter: the tax issue tripped up romney's white house bid but trump said he feels no pressure to release his returns at all. >> my returns are extremely complex and i'll make a determination at the right time. i'm in no rush to do it. nobody has been bringing it up except for mitt romney. >> reporter: a carter gop field advantages trump as the rest of the candidates are scrambling to dull that edge but no one appears to be willing to give up their smaller share of support. >> once this race begins to narrow you'll see more of that ing. >> reporter: three candidates yet to win aren't dropping out. marco rubio finished second in

>> we are not going to allow the conservative movement to be defined by a nominee who isn't a conservative. >> reporter: john kasich has back-to-back fifth place finishes. >> we are not stopping and i'm not giving up! >> reporter: ben carson hasn't finished higher than fourth. >> it's like a baseball game. everybody wants to call the game after the first inning. >> reporter: a loss on cruz's home turf could cripple his campaign. of the delegates up for grabs on tuesday, texas has the most with 155. >> he called it himself the big prize. hillary clinton is focusing on south carolina this morning but bernie sanders is hundreds of miles away campaigning in ohio, michigan, and illinois. clinton is making four stops in the state where democrats vote on saturday. nancy cordes is in columbia, south carolina, where clinton is also thinking about the gop front-runner. nancy, good morning.

republicans are not the only ones who are starting to come to grips with the notion that trump could be the gop nominee. yesterday, the clinton campaign sent out this fund-raising appeal saying, everything is coming up trump. a message meant to scare their supporters into opening their wallets. >> when with you talk about the trump's of the world to divide us up. >> reporter: trump that united the democratic candidates, at least temporarily. >> i listen to the rhetoric on the republican side. i don't recognize my country. you know? senator sanders and i have been trying to run a campaign based on issues. they run a campaign based on insults. >> reporter: clinton is camped out in south carolina, protecting her large lead in the polls here. >> hi. >> reporter: sanders headed west in search of greener pastures and he found them. >> here in missouri! >> reporter: 7,000 people came to here him speak in kansas city. almost 10,000 in tulsa.

are going to lose on tuesday! >> reporter: the only other candidate drawing crowds this large is trump. but, so far, the enthusiasm has not translated into turnout, which is down on the democratic side since 2008 in the three contests held so far. and that is a problem for sanders, who says this all the time. >> voter turnout is everything. our job is to create a high voter turnout. if there is a large turnout, i think we will do very well. >> reporter: translation? sanders needs his young supporters to hit the polls in record numbers and offset clinton's advantage with older and more reliable advantage. in nevada she won by a full 50 points and won the caucus. you say you want to create the revolution that clinton couldn't. is turnout a sign that that revolution isn't happening? >> it's a sign that barack obama ran a brilliant campaign in 2008.

>> reporter: and even with that unprecedented campaign, though, obama just barely edged out hillary clinton. this time, sanders says he is going to win several super tuesday states and keep pace with clinton in the delegate count. >> thank you, nancy. see you on tuesday. president obama may reach across the aisle to get the senate to vote on his next supreme court nominee. reports say the white house is considering nevada's republican governor to replace justice antonin scalia. jan crawford is on capitol hill and watching the supreme court debate. >> reporter: good morning. senator republicans say they will block anyone the president nominates even if it's someone from their own party. yesterday, the president predicted they will cave. >> i recognize the politics are hard for them. >> reporter: from the oval office, president obama suggested that eventually republicans will back down and give his supreme court nominee a shot. >> there is not a lot of vigor when they defend the position

wouldn't even meet, for example, with a supreme court nominee. they are pretty sheepish about it when they make those comments. >> reporter: across town, the senate's top democrat, harry reid, offered a surprise pick, a rpublican. nevada governor brian sandoval. >> if he were picked, i would support the man. he's a good person. he has a great record. and he has been a tremendously good governor. >> reporter: sandoval may be seen as a moderate conservative but he is no fan of the president's signature achievement -- the affordable care act. he has called many aspects of the law unconstitutional and threatened to fight to have them overturned. in a statement, sandoval's office said neither the governor nor his staff has been contacted by or talked to the obama administration regarding any potential vetting and that did not surprise utah senator mike lee. >> i don't think that is a legitimate rumor. i don't think it reflects any truth. i don't think that is who president obama is going to nominate. but even if it is, our position

>> reporter: lee says regardless of the nominee, most senate republicans are holding firm until the country elects a new president. >> it's not up to the president. we are a coordinate branch. government. this is our discussion, not his. >> reporter: the president says the sandoval buzz is read and they are playing games. a republican to the supreme court would make a conservative majority on that court for a generation. charlie? >> thanks, jan. apple ceo tim cook defended the company in his first interview about the standoff over the san bernardino gunman's iphone. he calls the government's request to unlock it bad for america. jeff pegues is in washington to show us apple's case. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. apple executives and the tech giants attorneys say this is a slippery slope. tomorrow the company will put its arguments in writing when it's expected to file its legal challenge to the government.

things are right. and some things are both. this is one of those things. >> reporter: speaking publicly about the controversy, apple's ceo tim cook laid out his reasons for refusing a court order to unlock the iphone of syed farook, one of the terrorists behind the deadly attack in san bernardino, three months ago. >> to oppose your government on something doesn't feel good. and to oppose it on something where we are advocating for civil liberties, which they are supposed to protect, it is incredibly ironic. >> reporter: cook says the decision would compel the company to write new software and create ago key that he says, in the wrong hands, could make all iphones vulnerable to hackers. >> our smartphones are loaded with our intimate conversations, our financial data, our health records. they are also loaded with the location of our kids in many cases.

cooperated with law enforcement, but contends investigators made a crucial error by telling farook's employer, san bernardino county, to reset his icloud password. apple says that limited the information that could be retrieved but even with the password change, the fbi says there may still be information on the phone that would not be accessible without apple's assistance. >> if a court can ask us to write this piece of software think of what else they ask us to write. maybe an operating system for surveillance, maybe it's the ability for the law enforcement to turn on the camera. this is not what should be happening in america. >> i think this is going to be a question for the american people and their congress to decide if we want to make these communications devices immune to warrants when we know that they are used in crimes all the time. >> reporter: cook and bill gates agree that this issue will

>> eventually, as it has been with the patriotic act, this will all be subject to democratic discussion. >> reporter: today, fbi director james comey will be on capitol hill where he is expected to discuss the government's case against apple. norah? >> jeff, thank you. the debate continues. isis this morning is threatening two silicon valley titans. a new video purportedly made by supporters of target, mark zuckerberg and zach dorsey. the propaganda video is in response to facebook and twitter suspending accounts and removing posts that promote terrorism. president obama is tamping down expectations about the partial truce in syria that takes effect at midnight on friday. syrian government troops are fighting in a suburb outside of damascus. the assad regime says the area is excluded from the cease-fire because al qaeda-linkeded group is there. our elizabeth palmer got a firsthand look on the lines

>> reporter: how confident is the syrian army right now? well, enough to have a group of local journalists tour their latest victory. a half of a square mile of total destruction and five miles from the center of dah mass mus. mascus damascus. this general leads the way through what used to be family homes that is a wreck now. a sniper was right here only yesterday, he says. we are in the suburb of daria. the army says 24 hours ago, it pushed the opposition fighters half a mile back to the next cluster of buildings. now they are pounding them with machine guns and from the air. overhead, the sound of the helicopters scouting its target. then a strike. they are using barrel bombs, cheap and deadly. are there any civilians left over there? no, he says.

in fact, by now, almost everyone has fled. bombs smashed this area to bits. the opposition fighters only survived by going underground into a network of tunnels. this is the road. the soldiers showing us around, this one explains this tunnel was under the main road. you can see the black strike that gave extra protection. the army says the fighters here were with al qaeda-linked al nusra not in this weekend's cease-fire so no let up on this world of the suburbs of damascus. great reporting there. coming up, our electronic grets

airline seats were spacious. take a look over here. about 20 inches which is not too bad. by the jet age, they had shrunk down to 17 1/2 inches and in the years since, they have gotten even smaller and shrinking down yet another inch in space. now, this new seating concept could usher in a day where the airlines could truly price by your size. as americans have gotten larger and their airline seats smaller, it's not made flying any easier. >> oh, they are too close, yes. especially if they are heavy people or big people. >> reporter: some overweight passengers even find themselves being shamed on social media. now jetmaker airbus is looking to patent this seating concept that could let airlines create what would essentially be a fee for larger passengers, just don't expect them to call it that. this bench seating concept would allow a traditional row of three seats to be rapidly and easily reconfigurable into seating for two passengers who need

,, ,, ,, extraordinary legal battle in britain getting world wide attention. a 60-year-old woman wants to

who died of cancer. the court is allowing her husband to appeal a ban. the couple believes the daughter, quote, expressed the strong wish to her mother that one or more of her eggs after being fertilized should be implanted in her mother who would give birth to the baby. >> the 60-year-old mom says we know the chances of con receive ceiving a grand child is small but it would mean the birth of a child would be loved and cherished by us and the rest of our family. ricky is here to talk about this. this is very unusual. first of its kind and she was their only daughter. they're saying this is the only way they could have a grand child. >> yes but it should not be about their desire to have a grand child. it should only be about their now deceased daughter's desire about what should happen to her own eggs after she dies.

believe. she could have said in what we call a special direction in britain, there's a form where if you want your eggs to survive signed. you can also sign a special direction which then would have said i want my mother to be able to carry my eggs and have my child because my parents were such great parents. >> she didn't sign that? >> she never signed that. now, originally, what happens is you're in a clinic. the clinic has the eggs and the clinic is now put in a situation where it says we can't just export these eggs to the u.s. without a real directive. the reason they have to export them, there is no clinic in the u.k. who is going to do this invitro fertilization but the grandmother says she found a clinic in new york that will

>> and is the grandmother going to carry it? >> the grandmother wants to carry the eggs herself. she says that's her daughter's dying wishes. what this appeals court has said is this. we're going to let you appeal. they haven't decided the appeal. they're saying we're going to let you appeal which is the reversal of another judge's decision saying no, you can't. the reason they say that is the mother says which is really the get this right. >> i understand the legal argument but her daughter died. >> it's creepy and touching at the same time. is that possible? >> exactly right. i think both of those words are well taken. the ethicist in britain says this is in essence unseen. we should not have a 60-year-old woman giving birth from her own body of her own daughter's eggs. then you get back to the issue of why it's touching. whose life is it anyway? if the daughter really had this

be the best parents for her own child then there is something to be said for her decision about what to do with this. >> she knows her mom. >> she knows her up brings. >> suppose they rule in the couple's favor and it goes forward, what are the precedence that it says? >> well, i think it's an interesting precedent in britain because we've never had a grandmother carry a daughter's eggs. whether or not it would be precedent in the u.s. remains undecided because here we look contract in form consent, written agreement always controls. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> adel gets another shot after her glitch filled grammy performance. you're watching cbs this morning. ing "cbs this morning." screaming out your name your name i set fire to the rae (rebecca) i've struggled with depression.

quote, if i had to make the choice today, i wouldn't go. the two-time olympic medalist is here at the table. hope solo, good morning. >> good morning. and thank you all for having me. >> we are glad you're here. >> how do you feel today? will you go to rio? >> well, you know, i feel very fortunate that i don't have to make the decision today. i hope that a lot of things can happen in five months. i'm a little bit skeptical, to be honest. news came out today that things probably could get worse before they get better. so it's scary. and i have a lot of reservations but, like i said, i don't have to make the decision right now. there is a lot of unknowns and i hope that we get some clear, concrete answers very soon. >> what specifically concerns you about the zika virus? >> i just think there is a lot in life to worry about as it stands, that, you know, at some family. and i don't want to be worried. i don't want the anxieties.

i don't want to risk the safety of a child, the health of a child. it's just a scary time, and there is really no clear answers to it. so until i know more, i don't really feel like i can make a really informative decision. >> if things are like they are, you probably wouldn't go sfl. >> as things stand like they are right now, i probably would not go. >> to your teammates feel the same? >> i think everybody is just trying to get a lot of information right now, so i don't think anybody is making any irrational decisions. but you have to understand that my team is filled with different age ranges and different personalities and some people don't want to have families, some people do. i think for the most part, we are all based on winning the olympics. it's never been done before after winning a world cup. first and foremost, we want to be back-to-back champions. it's never been done before! i want to be a part of that! >> i always wanted to ask you this.

goalkeeper in the history of the women's national team. >> in the green room, they were saying in the world. in the world! >> do you agree with that? >> in the world! own it, hope, own it! >> i feel fortunate. >> if that is true, what makes you so good as a goalkeeper? what makes a great goalkeeper? >> oh, gosh. i still ask myself that day in and day out. goal keeping is a very difficult decision. you're kind of a hero or the goat. five setups in olympic qualifications but qualifications to me are not that busy. we are playing some poorer countries and some country who don't really build the women's game, who feel honored to be on the field with us because they know that in their country, women don't really play sports. so we are beating these teams who they don't really have a lot of resources in their countries. so i honestly didn't get much action so i got these five shutouts but i didn't feel like i earned all of them.

in your position in their 30s peak. you're going to be 35. do you even feel like you're even close to peaking? >> well, where i was going with that is goal keeping is something that you can never really master. there are so many details and intricacies and mental game more than anything else. i stay focused. >> that is the exciting part about it. >> it is. and why i never want to walk away because there is always something new to learn and always a challenge. anybody who knows me, know i love challenges. >> as a little girl, did you think you would be doing this? maybe not world champ but did >> yeah. i was 12 years old and i read a paper that said when i want to professional soccer player. how could you dream something that was not there? '80s. i wrote it and there was no women's professional soccer. i had this gigantic dream that possibilities at the time and, by god, it happens.

go to push for women's sports and women's equalities but i dreamt something at the age of 12 that didn't even exist and i was able to go on and become a professional soccer player. >> i want to ask you about that very point, because after the world cup win, it was reported your team would earn just $2 million, the team. while the winning german men's team won two times more than that in 2014. what do you think it will get to get equal pay in sports? >> it's going to be a long road. i'm very proud of -- we had a great summer, you know? we crushed the ratings. we had an incredible following worldwide. but it wasn't enough to make people say things need to change. >> for fifa to change. >> it opened people's eyes up, but we, as a team, have to step every step along the way. whether it's cba negotiations and standing as a team and

women because we tend to get bullied and crack under the pressure. so i'm proud of my team. i'm proud of all of us coming together and saying you know what? this is a time we need to push for equality and push for what is right and people are paying attention. >> after soccer, what might you do? >> oh, goodness. i don't know. you know? i want to start a family. we will start there. but in terms of work, i don't know. i put my life and passion into goal keeping and this team. i've been on this team for 16 years. >> we would like to see you one more time out there. >> it's scary. life after soccer is scary and i think any athlete who tells you anything else, i don't think they are speaking the truth. i will admittedly express my fears. >> great to have you. >> we will be watching. we will be watching and hope you guys make it to the olympics. thank you. >> zika does not scare away our women's team. we want you there. hope solo, thank you very much. silicon valley is facing new competition halfway cross the
