in america, former san francisco 49ers quarterback colin kaepernick has been a another outspoken antiracism campaigner. the taking of a knee, replicated by so many athletes since was a gesture first taken by the american footballer in 2016. a direct protest against police brutality, kaepernick has not played a game in the league since. his actions prompted a direct response from president donald trump. wouldn't you love to see one of these nfl owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say get that son of a... off the field right now? he's fired! days after george floyd died, some of the most well—known names in the nfl broke rank. calling out their own league. george floyd's death came during the global covid—19 pandemic. yet despite warnings against breaking social distancing rules, several athletes left the safety of their homes to lend support to the black lives matter movement. no matter how big or small your platform is, use your voice. i saw a dr king quote that said the silence of the good people is worse than the brutality of the bad people. so we need to not be silent. if

what do colin kaepernick and joe neighbor have in common? well, pretty exciting day for both of them for very different reasons on this day is sports history. with another joe fonzi. memorable nfl playoff moments on this day in 2013 49ers colin kaepernick was in the process of redefining the traditional role of the quarterback happening through a pair of touchdown passes, but he also rushed for 181 yards and two scores 49ers removing on after a 45 to 31 win over the packers on this day in 1969, 1 of football's all time upsets here. predicted it and delivered mat smells run was his team's on lee touchdown. but just as joe nemeth said, they would he upstart new york jets knocked off the baltimore colts, 16 to 7 toe win super bowl three. that's this day in sports. january 12th. i'm joe fonzi. all right, frank. you remember out cool. joe nemeth was who's my favorite point? coolest of the cool. i want you to check this out right now. i mean, if we on lee had the nerve to do this, it would be so great. i mean, the view looks sensational. but this

>>right the people we saw in the capital today are also the people are upset about colin kaepernick when he kneels during the national anthem. they they feel there is some need or difference between their grievance first agreements of like colin kaepernick or or any any one of a diverse background in this country that's an important element here and that requires uniting the country and that's where republicans have to step up there there's an element though of what comes next with the trunk development of the party and the trump element of the party isn't going anywhere that's ted cruz that's josh hawley that's who is going to take over the movement running forward, but there is good news here and the good news is that this type of event as critical as it is as difficult as it is it does show the power of democracy if we can come together this is a moment that joe biden and his team took advantage of or moved forward on by preempting the president and this is the place where the president asked to do better if he doesn't the events of overtaking him and the political momentum has overta

colin kaepernick was at his running best. >> and going to do his thing against green bay again. >> reporter: and phil dawson kicked his third field goal of the day on the final play of the game. the 49ers were moving on after this 23-20 win. that's this day in sports, january 5th. i'm joe fonzi. >>> all right, frank. listen up, as you well know, we are going to have nhl hockey in the future. the sharks open up on the 14th, i think down in arizona, but in the meantime, we've got the junior hockey championships, up in canada today, and team usa against canada, of course, gold- medal game. first period, scoreless. usa's drew hellas and shot on goal, redirect alex turcotte with the first goal of the game, and usa goes on to win it 2-0. that's the fourth win for team usa over canada in their last five outings. the favorites go down. i hope that made your night, frank. >> it totally did, i can't wait for hockey to get started. >> that's the sporting library. >> i knew he would say that. mark, thank you. >>> next at 11:00 -- >> georgia is also a state that is purple, but really is a reddish purple

kaepernick kneeling on one knee and not saying anything that they are vilified for it. so people then end up speaking up and speaking out and they're expressing that anger. cause they're hurt. what did the protesters what do they want? and how do you how do you bridge that gap between what they say they want and what exists right now, i think for a lot of people they wanted to see all of the officers charged that's obviously happened. i think another group of people actually want to see police department's defunded. i think there are other people who want to see the militaristic ways that law enforcement has become they want to see that separation. so people that have very specific goals two things make prop make these protests different though. first is the racial diversity of these protests. we haven't seen that when it comes to these movements that's related to black lives matter. i think that's a good thing a stat that highlights that is that over 50% of white people now say that these incidents like the one we see with george floyd is part of something bigger. that

earlier, i spoke to celebrity lawyer mark geragos, whose clients range from colin kaepernick to michaeljackson. he explained how he became friends with larry king. i think i must have gone on his show hundreds of times and he became what i would consider a close friend over the years in both his time at cnn and after, and he was fiercely loyal to his friends and the guy that you saw on tv, part of what his charm was was that he was authentic and i had not talked to him for a couple of weeks, since he went in, but the fact that he lived such a rich life and had such an outpouring of support i think speaks volumes about it. and you've mentioned in the past that he too wanted to be a criminal defence lawyer. why do you think that is? i think he had a wonderful identity or affinity for the underdog. and that really is what criminal defence is. he told me on multiple occasions that one of the things that — if he had to live another life and choose and choose another profession, it would have been as a criminal defence lawyer. i think he loved the idea of defending the indefensible, or being the d

and i stand with colin kaepernick. and i stand with the owners and the nfl players. i stand with everybody. because that's what america is. because that is what we are supposed to be about. the first amendment, the right to actually go ahead and stand for people utilizing their first amendment right. so i stand for all of it. but i understand it. and i've taken the time to educate myself on it. so so what's the answer? the answer is we have to have more empathy for other people. if we have empathy for people, we have empathy for their thoughts, their feelings, their lives, their experiences, then we can start to actually see across the aisle and be willing to listen to them and have real conversations. well, this is why it's so great that we have a show like "america's funniest videos," don't you think? - yeah. - seriously. - yeah. no, at the end of the day, i say it all the time. literally, at the end of the day. every sunday, you get to go and sit with your family and laugh. and crack up. [laughter]. thanks for being on the show. narrator: still ahead on "talk stoo

of course this is the latest so-called cancel culture example, colin kaepernick faced harsh criticism for kneeling during the national anthem and boycott nike for featuring him in a commercial or demands to avoid chick-fil-a for a history of donating to charities with anti-lgbtq stances or calling out barilla pasta for the chairman's 2013, did not feature gay families in this adz. this time around corporate america is weighing in on the storming of the capital they visited the political donation and supporters applauding that decision. >> thank goodness the pushing back, the market is changed because of the pressure that it is put on, maybe this will give my republican colleagues some support that they can be free. >> protest this week urging senator ted cruz and josh hawley to step down, democrats also calling for the removal. >> i have demanded the resignation of senators ted cruz, senator josh hawley, majority leader republican rather republican minority leader in the house mccarthy, kevin mccarthy, along with many others. >> social media companies gaining the president and putting

looking back at the 49ers again, there was some good times under colin kaepernick, and one most notable, brought out by jim fonzie, this day in sports. >>> memorable 49er playoff action in the state in 2014. with the temperature barely above zero at game time, the 49ers played a wildcard game in green bay's lambeau field.: kaepernick was at his running best and phil dawson kicked his third field goal of the day on the final play of the game. the 49ers were moving on after this 23-20 victory. but is this day in sports, january 5th, i'm joe fonzi. >> everybody loves dogs, check this one out. >>> especially love dogs if they are smart, like this one. and they also know how to have fun in the snow. check out this little guy. bringing the flight, top of the hill, he knows exactly what to do with it, and let her rip. there you go, wish i knew his name, which i knew where that the snow? that is the sporting life for tonight. >> great way to end the newscast. i'm sorry, but "gollum" and "flakey" are not acceptable. well, you don't like "princess corncob," you don't like "fester"-- you're just i

colin kaepernick who has the unequivocal support of orbit america because the fourth of july an example of white supremacy. to put away the fireworks and the hot dog. united states army, a trusted institution if there ever was one, has used an entire manual and what is and what isn't white supremacy. you should know this, among the telltale signs are celebrating columbus day, using the term american exceptionalism, any support for federal border security or english only measures, or education funding from property taxes. using the phrase, there's only one human race is white supremacy, too. of course, voting for donald trump, all white supremacy. here's the problem. let's say you don't buy those definitions. it lets say you are white but poor, and you have trouble accepting the idea that you are benefiting from some kind of structural advantage. you better shut up about it if you know what's good for you because according to the united states army, denial of white privilege is a classic sign of white supremacy. no complaining. you can see the problem with this. we definitely can see the

donald trump supporters who were upset because colin kaepernick did not show sufficient respect for the american flag beat up police officers with an american flag. ripped an american flag down and used it as a weapon. and, mika, this is not just what happened a week or two ago. this is lindsey graham, a guy who was going to be chairman of the judiciary committee, warning democrats if you move forward and have a hearing on impeachment, you will cause violence in the country. so, again, let me just state, this is a constitutional remedy that our founding fathers put into the united states constitution so the legislative branch could check the excesses of the executive branch. you have a president who fomented violence and pushed for insurrection. and even mitch mcconnell knows, "the wall street journal" opinion page knows these were impeachable offenses that donald trump committed last week. so whether you think it's the right thing to do politically or not, it is the constitutional thing. it is a constitutional remedy. and to threaten your opponents with violence if they go through with

remember the president of colin kaepernick said he should be fired. after the siege of the capitol, he said we love you, you're very special. it puts a clear contrast on display for all of america. >> it sure does. a lot of people will be watching to see exactly what happens during these playoff games this weekend. >>> now we want to get another check of the forecast with dylan. hey there, dylan, i know you're tracking a lot of winter weather. >> yeah. and in an odd place too, down across the southern plains, especially through northern texas, where temperatures will be on the cold side. of course when you're talking about snow, you're talking colder temperatures. we have cold air surging in from the north. we're not looking at record-breaking cold but temps running 10 to 15 degrees below average. on sunday when that snow continues to overspread especially the panhandle of texas, that's where we could see temperatures close to 25 degrees below average with highs at or around freezing. now, as we go into the rest of the week, we are going to see temper

colin kaepernick in the middle of last year supporting violent rioting saying it is perfectly fine. how do those accounts, some more like them not violate so-called guideline safety guideline rules. it is ridiculous. >> what is the leading state sponsor of terror according to the obama and trump state departments. it is iran. what does twitter do? let's leave that guy up. who just doesn't threat err people but whole countries. cory booker, my state of new jersey, told activists to get up in the face of some congresspeople in 2018. that tweet is still up. hillary clinton says you can't be civil with a political party that doesn't support what you stand for. that is still up. there is no consistency. some people may think it is because after political bias, ashley. go figure. ashley: could you be on to something, joe concha, great stuff, joe. thanks for joining us this morning. we do appreciate it. >> all right, sir. good to see you. ashley: good to see you. another conservative social media app, gab, g-a-b, is actually seeing surging growth. how much, lauren? lauren: lauren: its ceo

i thought that was -- colin kaepernick, didn't he disrespect the flag by kneeling? it is a sacred thing. but they're using an american flag to beat police officers and beat people on the ground. >> so what republicans, kasie hunt, plan to vote against impeachment of a president who incites this? who is going to stay on this side of history and have this on their legacy for the rest of their lives and for decades to come? >> probably moreirense in the house than you might think watching this horrible video. now, the one thing i will say, mika, is there was at least one member who voted to overturn the electoral results, not because they believed joe biden hadn't won the election but they had seen what happened and they were afraid for the personal safety and the safety of their family. if they voted against president trump, something terrible would come and happen to them. and while i'm not trying to excuse anyone who voted to overturn the election results, i think that underscores the degree of danger that we are all in as a country right now. that people are so afr

kaepernick and the nfl. obviously they wanted to impeach him over russia and then they did impeach him over ukraine. so this is a group that has been heavy -- quick on the impeachment trigger in the past. so it's not a real surprise that they might try it again. even with just a few days left. jedediah: yeah, byron, i think face fair. that's been set for a long time democrats seeking to impeach the president. in this case some feel a little bit of concern that if something isn't done, that the behavior will be deemed sen acceptable that he has displayed in the last few weeks. i don't know if impeachment is the answer that's not my judgment call to make. lots going to unfold. we thank you for being here with us on this important morning. will: thanks, byron. jedediah: we are going to turn to important headlines beginning with this fox news alert. right now a boeing plane carrying 6 people is missing in i understand co-nearby shah. it vanished from radar minutes just takeoff. shows the jet plunging more than 1
