colin kaepernick is taking his collusion case straight to the top. team is reportedly interested in seeking subpoenas for donald trump and mike pence. they are interested in the president's connection with nfl team owners wondering if he had anything to do with the decision not to hire colin kaepernick. what a joke, our leaders have serious business on their plate and have no time for a whining loser. lynn says another prime example of the blame game, could it be you were a subpar quarterback? a lot of strong feelings, very aggressive move by colin kaepernick's legal team. >> any idea what else is going on other than him and his own issues? this lemonade stand. i would be so embarrassed if i had to do this to little kids. >> there is a growing trend of police officers finding little kids for operating lemonade stands without a permit. country time lemonade is stepping in saying kids across the country are getting busted for operating lemonade stands without a permit, taking a lead to stave lemonade stands by paying for kids finds and permits this yea

because tom shady brady, who deflated balls and is somehow a hero, gets to play, and colin kaepernick never did anything but try on stick up for civil rights, can't even get on the field. when tom shady brady wentdown, a lot of americans were v happy when this went down. a racial divide that they had this beef. and it is outrageous for him, outrageous for trump to punish the team for something that no one on the team did. >> first of all, to the spent e brade is relevant. he didn't show up at the white house. he had family issues. the team showed up. some chose not to you called it pantsing. my friend, this is why i gave you the downward look. these are issues. >> i get it. >> you don't practice patriotism way i like it, you're bad. that's dangerous talk for a president in a country talking about tolerance. >> i agree with the players' ability and the right to protest. i think we need to get past the protest and make some progress. bring the the nfl players association, i would be trying to make some real reforms rather than continuing on the sidelines. let me pick up the point that a

colin kaepernick can protest nonstop. and by the way it's because he went 1-10 in the last 11 starts in the nfl. >> that's what this case is all about? >> he's not in the league and he's welcome to do so because it's in his right. it's not within his rights to compel the nfl to employ him. >> charles, here's your latest piece. it's from "the new york times," and you said i want to hate. calling for a return to the death penalty even after their conviction was overturned trump said settling doesn't mean innocence. so you write this, he wants to hate. when trump feels what he believes is a righteous indignation his default is hatred. he wants to hate and does so. so you go and explain his feelings about black people about black people, women, muslims, about immigrants and so on. talk to me about your column, why you wrote that. >> right, that phrase, i want to hate, comes from the body of the ad he took out. and people get caught up on the headline of the ad which was bring back the death penalty. but people don't actually

. >> and colin kaepernick and others who followed suit were making a statement about social injusticesne way. it isn't just being jailed. and when the president said what he said, the way in which he said it, was there also an admission that he didn't quite understand the measurement of social injustices? his challenge was, bring me a list of people, black people who you know are in jail, and that was it. >> that's right, that's right. and colin kaepernick took a knee in protest on the front end of this problem, namely police misconduct, police brutality, but that injustice continues throughout the criminal justice system in terms of sentencing, in terms of prison conditions, in terms of the prison pipeline. >> so the plea is to address all of that. >> that's right. that's exactly it. so really the president is not giving these athletes due intellectually, morally. in other words, he's saying tell me about your friends who have gotten locked up. tell me about your friends who need a little justice on the back end. that's insulting. >> does translation now become, all right, if you don'

did you learn somethiour exchange with colin kaepernick?elieve that it's disrespectful for people who want to kneel during national anthem? >> i personally don't believe that, but i also don't speak for the community. there are many men and women that disagree with me. that is also their right and something that they fought for and something that the flag and anthem was supsed to stand for. so, personally i thought what was important about that conversation, about that middle ground that we met on, colin told me, i'm not going to stand until i see some those changes, until things are in . whether tho goalse measurable at that time is not important. whatmportant was he was taking a hard line there and i wanted him to stand. i wanted him to stand because he felt a sense of pride, he felt like he should. i don't want people to stand out of obligation or do anything out of gation. wouldn't wple to fig for my freedom out of obligation. through that i liked the fact he was willing to give a little, and he was willing to listen. that will make me

nfl player michael bennett, who has been part of a movement led by former 49ers quarterback colin kaepernick protesting police shootings of unarmed black men. the on-field protests began in august 2016 when kaepernick refused to stand for the national anthem to protest racism and police brutality. the protests spread throughout the nfl. earlier this year, the "new yorker" magazine ran a cover illustration showing martin luther king jr., taking a knee in between michael bennett and colin kaepernick. while kaepernick has essentially been blacklisted from the nfl, michael bennett is still playing and speaking out. he was recently traded to the super bowl champions philadelphia eagles -- the same team president trump recentltly disinvited to the white house. this all comes after the nfl owners recently ruled teams will be fined if players kneel during the national anthem to protest racism and police brutality, though they can stay in the locker room. michael bennett joins us here in our studio. he has a new book called "things that make white people uncomfortable." welcome back to democracy now!

you saw more players do it when colin kaepernick first started it i think about 2 1/2 years ago. they were really dying down. until that night, i believe he was campaigning in the florida panhandle, just trying to reach the alabama market for that senate race, and then he just brought up the issue, hisrowd went wild and ever since then it has been something that he's gone back to. one thing i do want to point sarah sanders said the eagles have abandoned their fans. this is one lifelong eagles fan who completely defends my team. the eagles haven't let any of their fans down. we can see thank yrough that. this is all about a president who is very petty and has a very fragile ego. once he found out that so few players were going to show up, he decided to cancel the whole party. >> congressman, the president akg this a about him. re'sou twe there. you know, this -- one of the things that it's really forced me to think about and we can talk about this with all three of you, the anthem protest. have they been -- and by that i mean, michael, initially, it was colin kaepernick and he mad

colin kaepernick and others have taken a beating from the president, the public and team owners. the truth is that black activism in sports is not a new phenomenon in the united states. howard bryant has written an important new book about the power and the history of protest on the playing field. he is a senior reporter at espn magazine and the book is called "the heritage, black athletes, a divided america and the politics of patriotism." he joins me from connecticut. welcome to the program. >> thank you. thanks for having me. >> what is it that first made you write this book? what actual incident was it that caused you to take a look at what's going on right now? >> i think it was actually two issues. i think the first thing was what was taking place in ferguson in 2014 when michael brown was killed by police. then the series of incidents that took place after that with eric garner. i began to look at this rise of athletes getting involved when for so many years we didn't hear from them, so many years the player stayed away from political issues. that was also combined with so
