can you walk us through what happened with senator romney? >> it's not the first time in history that i've been told to shut up and go to the back of the room, especially by people who come from a privileged background. and i think it's reprehensible that the senator would say such a thing to me in the demeaning way he said. it wasn't very mormon of him. that's what i can tell you. >> reporter: mitt romney's office declined to comment any further, but tonight, the senator is standing by his words, insisting that someone like george santos does not belong in congress. david? >> it's all really something. rachel scott live on the hill tonight. rachel, thank you. >>> in the meantime, we turn now to that dangerous cross-country storm, nearly 50 million americans tonight, 20 states on alert for severe weather. a tornado watch right now. and then this system, our weather team telling us, moving right into the northeast. let's bring in senior meteorologist rob marciano, tracking it all. he's live in new orleans for us tonight. hey, rob. >> reporter:

i believe mitt romney over george santos, just because of the record. >> and mccarthy's response to romney'snted that mccarthy hasn't called on santos to resign, is to go after romney for not calling on eric swalwell to resign. >> if you went back 24 hours before the state of the union, just imagine what mccarthy was envisioning for day-after messaging. this is probably the last thing. all of this tit for tat, his own members of the party, fighting with each other, making these accusations against each other. kevin mccarthy, he's been trying to focus, at least he says the messaging of his party, on the biden administration. on trying to have this debate between big spending and whether or not these packages are fueling rising prices. none of the attention goes there when your own party is in disarray like this. this, this can't be what he wanted. it's probably the last thing he wanted. the attempt to flip it on romney or talk about eric swalwell or just try to point it to the democrat party is an attempt to refocus the criticism elsewhere. but i don't know if that's working. >> that's the po

set mitt romney oft and romney is always clear about what he stands for whether you agree with him or not. he's he's a father of five. i saw this as a disappointed am angry dad version of mitt romney, who saw george santos as someone who should be part of the party. i don't think someone calling someone asked his part of mitt romney's vocabulary, but the general idea here that santos is just a stain on everything mitt romney wants the republican party to represent, fell very genuine to me is someone who has covered him from her longtime, and frankly there are a lot of other republicans who are pretty happy that ronnie said what they were all thinking. the >> whole situation is so bizarre. he was elected. he clearly was elected under a bunch of false pretenses. he really did lie about almost every aspect of his bio. but now he's there. there's a strange force field around him. you can kind of feel it. what's your move here? what do we say about this guy who doesn't feel like he's in a category of himself, of any member i can recall, although maybe you can think of a precedent? >> look,

i want to get to mitt romney.wonder if the establishment -- or, those who are still of sound mind and body within the gop, can talk to them about this? >> yeah. i think i can say with some confidence that there are still republicans who are trying to reason with what you call the fringe of their party, which is actually now, increasingly, the mainstream of their party. but they're having a very difficult time making the case. what you've seen is that the mitt romney's and the john mccain's and the liz cheney's of the party over the last five years were turned into pariahs. these were people that were once the leaders of the establishment, the kind of faces of the party. they are now on the fringe themselves of their party. so, they don't have a ton of sway. they don't listen to in caucus lunches. they don't get invited into fox news, to make their case to the average conservative voter. they don't have the influence they once did. i don't think that they have given up. i just don't think the average maga republica

they don't confront george santos the way that mitt romney did. party have, or what mitt romney does his gift at this moment is not that he has some original insight, it's that he's willing to say that -- most republicans aren't gonna say. without stepping on lots in my book, it's coming out in october. i think you'll hear a lot more from him along these lines. i don't think that was an isolated incident. >> potentially, deportees the air, what role romney may have paid an empowering the forces within the gop? i'm just gonna leave it there, make a. >> let's leave it there. >> the, buckeye sumy finished writing at, so you know what's in there, we're gonna read and have you back, mckay coppins, thank you for joining my friend. great to see you. >> you. tail >> still more to come tonight. including a potential bombshell decision that's expected out of a federal court in tax, as one that could happen the lives of millions as soon as tomorrow. you don't want to miss that story. and turmoil at the supreme court has put a spotlight on the fact that the j

romney put his head forward and ended the conversation.they will be trying to report on what happened when this is over. >> garrett, could you tell if in terms of that interaction, whether he was mr. santos that initiated the communication with romney, or vice versa? >> only in the sense that santos, with his position on the aisle can kind of lean out over the aisle as anybody walks down. he very well might when the president comes, and so i haven't covered mitt romney for a long time, and we'll get the sense that he was going to talk to george santos. given his presence on the aisle there, you can sort of inject himself into the conversation when anybody arrives. >> it's amazing. lots of members of congress have been problematic in lots of, always including those that have -- we've seen, it's not the first scoundrel to ever be in congress. to have somebody that is universally viewed as a con man, who is on his way out, to be there on a night like this, it's a distraction, and it's an unusual thing. we actually got tape of this interaction

hey, mitt romney, just reminder, you'll never be president. obviously, something happened there. >> yeah. and also reflects the position george santos believes he's in. he feels extremely comfortable. he was so energized. >> i think if there is a political talking point that president biden is not on it, last night was a he performance of mental acuity. it's not easy to deal with hecklers in any environment. >> he used that -- one of the moments on social security and medicare to make them all commit. okay, so you all agree with me. >> yeah. in fairness, speaker mccarthy said out loud those things are off the table. but the point of the state of the union is for the president to gather around and explain his messaging, right? and to set the parameters. and by doing that, for the people who haven't been watching with baited breath, all of these little minor congressional press conferences, it looked like he had sort of turned the moment on them. and, you know, it is also interesting seeing this juxtaposed with the republican rebuttal. i know ka

i would quickly note, he mentions his -- romney from a privileged background. he is under investigation for allegedly loaning his campaign $700,000 that we are not sure where he got it. i wouldn't go near that if i were george santos. >> romney, whatever his politics, clearly is a person of strong religious beliefs and a decent human being. he seems like a decent human being. >> romney gave a speech in 2016 in which he called donald trump a con man. it's not surprising that somebody who is in some ways the extension of the trump era just in terms of saying all of these things not true about limbself and his biography was very offensive to romney. >> it's stunning the degree to which george santos is enjoying this and the little crew of trolls he has around him also all seem to be enjoying this little echo chamber. >> that attention. it's all about attention right now. >>> coming up next, a live report from the quake zone in turkey. my conversation with chef jose andres about conditions on the ground. >>> as house executives grill people, my conversation with a

romney reportedly said, i would be embarrassed. utah senator was asked about what happened and is clearly not a fan of the newly elect they'd congressman. >> if he would not be there. he was standing right there in the aisle. i did not hear anything that he said. kumasi: santos has been mired in numerous controversies, including lying on his resume. reggie: governor sanders also mentioned big tech. he called on republicans and democrats to fight against the growing dangers. gloria rodriguez is live with what experts are saying about that. reporter: calling for or better regulations but getting bipartisan or might be a challenge. now is the time to finally hold social media companies accountable for experiments that they are running on our children for profit. this addresses here is what was said about big tech. pres. biden: it is time to pass bipartisan legislation. limits. >> there is a lot of concern about censorship. on the others that have the isle, you have people worried about the spread of extremism and the concern about tec

romney. yeah. the i the politics true. i mean, the that there were political alliances and this was done to benefit both sides. but i also the sense that ted genuinely. developed friendships across the that contributed to this that that he was. he he didn't look at republicans as the enemy always going to be over there he looked at potential alliances and potential connection and these were potential partnerships. a real friendships i mean alan simpson left the senate after working with on immigration with ted kennedy but doing that crossfire show or whatever was called where they yelled at each other for a minute every night on cnn. and he over as head of the institute of politics, he probably was over here a lot at the jfk library talking like like we are. this is a this was a true friendship. but, you know, don't look past the fact that when these guys walked into kennedy's they had better had their hand on their wallet because he would take them to the wall and the offices recreated over it at the institute and. he wou

is romney going to go again? >> i'd like to see him do it, to be honest.he idea that he would look at this consideration for this cycle, absolutely. i mean of all the names that have been floating out there, he's the only one who's kind of laid bare where he is and been very honest about that. the walk into the chamber during the state of the union and calling out george santos, bravo. i mean who else has done that? and so when asked the question if trump is your nominee will you support him, he's like no, because he's consistent. he's principled. and so that's what i think at the end everyone is kind of looking for, how consistent and principled can you be when it comes to trump. no one is showing me other than mitt romney and certainly liz cheney and aam kinzinger that they're consistent and principled. >> a long road ahead, guys, long road away. michael steele, thank you. ali vitali, thank you as well. that does it for me, everybody. i'll be back in the chair yet again tomorrow 10:00 a.m. eastern. you can catch me on the weekends 2:00 to 4:00 eastern. j

we know this was a tense exchange, both george santos and mitt romney have confirmed as much. listen to what romney said as he came off the floor last night after this speech. >> i don't know the exact words i said. he shouldn't have been there. he shouldn't be in the -- look, he's a sick puppy. he shouldn't be there. i don't think he ought to be in congress. and he certainly shouldn't be in the aisle trying to shake the hand of the president of the united states and dignitaries coming in. it is an embarrassment. >> we heard george santos called a lot of things, sick puppy is a new one i have to say from the senator and former republican nominee for president. but, lindsey, i think what is important about this is it demonstrates what a pain in the neck the george santos situation is for kevin mccarthy. he can prevent him from being on committees, he can prevent him from taking any kind of prominent role in any of the rollouts that the republican party is doing, he cannot prevent him from being a sitting member of congress and all the trappings that are afforded there. among th

that's how he has been responding to this incident on twitter, trollishly bigoting romney, a foil fort part of the conference. mitt romney who is trying to reshape the republican party the way he wants it to be perceived, not having it. >> mike memoli and garrett haake, yamiche alcindor and senator, thanks to all of you. >>> aim for change. the death of tyre nichols, the president using his state of the union address to press for substantive police reform. we will talk about that and more with maryland governor wes moore next. you are watching "andrea mitchell reports." this is msnbc. research shows people remember ads with a catchy song. so to help you remember that liberty mutual customizes your home insurance, here's a little number you'll never forget. did you know that liberty mutual custo— ♪ liberty mutual. ♪ ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ ♪ custom home insurance created for you all. ♪ ♪ now the song is done ♪ ♪ back to living in your wall. ♪ they're just gonna live in there? ♪ yes. ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liber

religious beliefs and a dozen human being. >> romney gave a speech in 2016. we all forget it, because of everything that has happened since and she called donald trump a con man. so it's not surprising that somebody who is in some ways, the extension of the trump era. just in terms of saying all these things that are not true. it was very offensive to romney. >> it's stunning, the degree to which george santos seems to be enjoying this. and sort of the little crew of trolls he has around him also seem to be enjoying this little echo chamber. >> it's all about attention, that's what alyssa said. >> melissa griffin, appreciate it. maggie, as always, thank, you coming up, next a live report from the quake zone in turkey. my conversation with chef jose andreas who was there. about conditions on the ground. and later, as house republicans, former twitter executives with the company's handling of the hunter biden laptop. story sowing suspicions that the government might have helped suppress it. my conversation with a democrat on the committee who pushed back today.

romney's said santos should be embarrassed and should have sat in the back and stayed quiet. what happened? it's the first time in history that i've been told to shut up and go to the back of the especially by people who come from a privileged background and i think it's reprehensible that the senator would say such a thing to me that the meaning way, he said. it wasn't very mormon of him. that's what i can tell you. romney called santos a sick puppy for lying about his education and background. more than 15,000. people have now died along the turkey syria border after this week's earthquake, but the final death toll may not be known for weeks because of the shee the survivaw is closing fast. this morning. time is running out to find survivors in the rubble of the turkey earthquake. the first critical 72 hours have now passed, the white helmet rescue team, sending a camera into the rubble, finding a young man pinned down. carefully chipping away at the twisted metal and debris were able to free him and a woman this little girl trapped but alive. one of the few have been safel
