now, mcpherson is full of contradictions. in her theologies, she was pretty fundamentalist and she was all about condemning mainstream sinful culture. she condemned theater, movies, but she borrowed a lot of hollywood techniques and she would walk on stage carrying a bouquet of roses to great applause. and she was most famous for what she called her illustrated sermons which were like broadway productions. this is inside the angeles temple. this is one of her illustrated sermons with the cast of dozens, choirs, costumes, where she and her colleagues would act out bible stories. often there were live animals. once she drove a motorcycle on stage. her critics dismissed it as religious vaudeville but it was incredibly effective. in her pentecostal theology there was room for healing. she held healing services frequently. it is interesting. there were reports of her own comments on this and they made it clear that she was pretty nervous about doing this. especially when she had a big audience in a los angeles stadium. she was wor

we have don mcpherson with us we have don mcpherson with us today, one of our first honorees. gary barker, of course from promundo, and jackson katz. we are so thrilled to have our honorees with us. these are men i really feel are helping us deal with the silent majority. the majority of men are nonviolent, but they're also silent. so how do we move from that silent majority to voices of solidarity to truly create change? launching us in this first discussion i'm going to turn it over to my great colleague cindy dyer. she has dedicated her life to eliminating violence against women. ms. dyer: thank you so much, elise. we are so excited, thank you all for coming out here on a cold friday morning and for joining us as we begin a discussion about what is driving some of this sexual assault and harassment that we see and how can men and women work together to move forward to change that pattern? i have got an amazing panel. immediately to my first left is ms. summers who is the national organizers of the women's march the to her left, gary barker president and ceo of promundo. jac

. >> lindsay mcpherson, thank you for being here this weekend to talk to us about this as we look towardeek ahead and potentially another memo. >> think you have any. >> let's kick things off with what we are essentially seeing here.regardless of the content we have republican someone subleasing a memo, democrats promise interviews another. and when they come out from closed doors i say something so here we are waiting on another memo.do you think we will seem very different interpretation? >> that is what we are expecting. see the supplement that with the house intelligence committee in particular. they're looking at the same evidence and walking away with different conclusions. the republican memo, the big finding that they laid out in the memo is that in submitting this application for a warrant to ask about carter page 2 the court that they did not disclose that the dossier was funded by the dnc and the hillary clinton campaign. democrats say it is not true. they did disclose that and so my guess is that there memo will explain where in the fisa application it was laid out. they also

mcpherson for -- mcpherson versus becker. the lawsuit is going to be very difficult. i could talk about why that is, but it is primarily because it says what it says. as theate shall appoint legislature may direct a number of electors, which means however if the juices toward award their letter is up to the state. if you want your vote in south dakota to matter as much as for ottavio -- fort lauderdale, florida. in that case, the court said there is no constitutional issue that has been raised about the implication about the allocation. the court has repeatedly said even though there is complete power, it iser -- subject to restrictions. >> i think we have one more questions. i may have my information incorrect, but it is my understanding that the electoral college is set up to safeguard an elected president from not working in the best interest of the country, someone who is either inept or corrupt, they certainly failed this time around. however, it seems to me it is not the function that is the problem but the execution of the electoral college. ,omewhere along the

don mcpherson is an all-american quarterback at syracuse. don: was. haley: was, a runner-up for the heisman trophy. more importantly for our purposes, a decades-long activist on this issue who has spent a long time talking about to college students specifically about these questions. i am really curious about the way in which colleges have been a place -- of course, they get most of their attention for being breeding grounds for toxic masculinity, but other ways in which colleges have actually been a place for transformation. don: i think that the last thing you said is significant. colleges are a place for transformation. not around this issue, but everything that goes back to the algebra analogy. colleges are a place of transformation when you talk about any kind of academic discipline or any kind of excellence in pursuit of any endeavor. except this. and that's where the shift has to change on college campuses. i think there's something that's really important, and i can go back to what michael said and the previous panel. we had dinner last night

chestnut hill a crash at mcpherson at chestnut ser as. and a crash at the 30 bypass heading towards exton and downingtown. and speeds are starting to recover. it takes some time for the speeds to pick up once again. and crash along marshallton road. and noun one in pottstown at 724 one lane is blocked. and? salisbury blocking 32 river road. we'll check it again and talk about the parade in the next half you.s a deal to ernment op tomorrow but at what cost. still to come on "action news" tonight. we'll break down what lawmakers agreed to and what they need to debate. >> and also, sweet news to report. ben and jerrys coming out with a lower calorie ice-cream. we have the skinny on the flavors when "action news" continues tonight. nnsylvania is getting the law requires many to get their child abuse clearances. are you one of them? if you're a coach sunday school teacher a scout leader camp counselor many people who work or volunteer with children may need their clearances. pennsylvania means business when it comes to protecting our children.

for more on what is happening today on capitol hill, we turn to lindsay mcpherson.ow close is congress to coming up with a deal to avert a shutdown? guest: they are pretty close on butbudget caps themselves, the holdup seems to be immigration, just like trump was talking about yesterday. house democrats see this as a leverage point for them, because their vote on -- will be needed on the spending bill, such a large increase in nondefense spending, and that is probably a third or close to half of house republicans that could ultimately vote against this ill. you need a sizable number of democrats, and they want to try to use this opportunity to extract a commitment from speaker paul ryan to have a vote on immigration, similar to a commitment that mitch mcconnell had made to the senate during the last shutdown. us through the legislative dance of the next 24 hours and how this is likely to play out. the house passed its short-term spending deal with longer-term money in their for defense appropriations. how does this work with the senate, and what ends up being sent b

another preeminent case law on the plenary power is mcpherson versus becker. those are two places i would point you. if you look at, i think a lawsuit will be difficult. i can talk at length about why that is. primarily because the article says what it says. however a state chooses to award electorates is up to the state. that is why the national popular vote interstate compact is the best way to a jv i national popular vote. >> let's be clear. you werethe case talking about, reviewing what michigan did. the court said, there is no constitutional issue that has been raised about the implication of way the allegations happen. the court has repeatedly since then said, even though ours complete plenary power, it is .ubject to constitutional >> there will be great arguments made. i look forward to watching it. >> last question. information and correct but it is set up in aner to safeguard against elected president from not working in the best interest of the country. someone who is either inept or corrupt, they certainly fail this time around. it seems to me it is

another one that is the preeminent case law on the plenary power of the state would be mcpherson versus becker. i mean, look, i think the lawsuit's going to be very difficult, and i can talk to you -- i mean, i can talk at length about why that is, but it's primarily because article 2, section 1 says what it says, which is each state shall appoint in such manner as the legislature there have made a number of electors, which means, however a state chooses to award their electors is up to the state. that's why the national popular vote interstate compact is the best way to achieve a national popular vote for president. if you want your vote in south dakota to matter as much as a vote in ft. lauderdale, florida. >> let's be clear about something. that was the case he was talking about, the blacker case that was reviewing what michigan had done. and in that case, the court explicitly said there is no constitutional issue that's been raised about the implication of the way the allocation has happened and the court has repeatedly said since then, the plenary power is subject to constitutional

. >> lindsey mcpherson reports for roll call and covers house leadership. congress is facing another shutdown thursday at midnight. you covered the republican retreat in west virginia, what did you learn about their plans to avert the next shutdown? lindsey: from the retreat itself there did not seem to be a lot of discussion. lawmakers that came through said they had finalized and even speaker ryan had said that they would need a cr but the duration of that and what would be included had not been decided. we do know from gop leadership aides that they are looking at a resolution through march 22, thinking that six-week timeframe would provide them enough time to get that budget deal they have been looking for, getting an omnibus bill after they have a budget cap agreement. that timeline could be problematic because it goes past the march 5 deadline for deferred action, replacing the deferred action for childhood arrivals program and democrats have tended to link a budget agreement with an immigration deal. their willingness in the senate to agree to a time
