Reporter Team President said the 49ers are anticipating a recordbreaking crowd, largest in their 73 year history. Get into the system really early, so you are there for kickoff. Reporter there will be a navy flyover, rally towel away and halftime giveaway halftime show. The team store is open late for people hoping to gear up in time, and this will be the first 49ers playoff game in levi stadium, something that is lured fans in from afar, this one has been a fan since the catch. Reporter this man through he flew in from new york. Im so happy for tomorrow and i wanted to be in the news adm, ive ive been a candlestick but not levi stadium. Reporter the field is ready for game day and so is the fans, and the team has their eye on the prize. We feel great.

Some fans are willing to get wet to make their way inside levi stadium for that game tomorrow thank you so much. As we saw fans are getting pumped, safe to say the team is locked in and ready for more we are joined by scott, boyd we are excited. I hope they are locked and we are finally getting there are you guys ready for football . So we have been hyping this team for an entire season and this game for two weeks in the opponents for five days all thats left is to actually play the game. You can slice it and dice it in so many ways, for me the biggest question is, how will this young 49ers team, and young 49er order back respond in a playoff atmosphere. It is true Jimmy Garoppolo has not played in a actual post season game, that he has risen to the occasion in critical regular season games that felt like playoff games and dont forget, he did go to the whole playoff routine with the new england patriots. Jimmy going and being able to go to the super bowls, and going through the whole process you do see all the extra, outside stuff that comes with it. So, you are not overwhelmed by it at all and jimmy knows what will happen before it happens because he has been through it in new england. I think that is a advantage for players and coaches, because it is ahead. We had a couple of late games, that felt like layoff games. Baltimore, new orleans, and we set throughout the season it will help us going forward. Playoff, you have to love it. You do. One other potentially important note, linebacker kwon alexander, out since following with a torn pectoral muscle was activated today will be available for the game. Alexander is returning from what is known as a month injury a little more than two months, it remains to see how much he plays, it will good to see the 49ers getting healthy at the right time. We artie know the favorite is in the super bowl. Sort of. Its the afc, a site called Sports Betting ag, set the line at afc 3 1 2 points over the nfc. The assumption is being that either the ravens or chiefs, will be favored by a field goal over either the niners or the packers. Of course none of those four teams my not even be in the super bowl so its kind of speculation. But whatever gets clicks on twitter. See talk about the defense theyve gotten healthy, at the right time. Do you think, that will make them play a bit more inspired in this game tomorrow, and try to shut down the vikings offense . They have not been this healthy since week three. Most of the seasons theyve been out of the key areas. Remember how they were playing defense . They were absolutely lights out. And you get all these guys back that have played so well in relief of the injured guys, i just think it makes that much of a difference and it keeps guys fresh, and it raises the ceiling for this defense to what it was when they were dominating the league. And if the defense plays light out, jimmy g doesnt have to play the greatest game of his career just to good game. Thats the beauty of the team, you know with the offenses team. The other nice thing with the 49ers is, weve seen a crunch time in certain situations, when he has had to win the game for them he has. So it is nice to have on your back pocket. It is exciting. I think they do come in the clutch so tomorrow its all about tomorrow. No pressure. For everything 49ers download the kutv we turne judge ruled a group of mothers who took over a vacant west oakland home must leave. The women say, they have a right to housing. Our reporter is live outside the womans house and what is next. What are these mom saying henry . Reporter the women are saying they are not going anywhere. In fact theyre willing to be arrested. The ruling came down friday by a judge, the homeless women occupied a west oakland home, have no legal right to be there. The judge says the women will be sent packing within five days. This was a organized, illegal and unethical occupation of private property. Today is not a defeat. This is the beginning of a movement. Reporter for the woman and supporters nothing has changed they say, and they are not going anywhere. We are here, and we are not leaving. We have been here since november 18 that is a win for us. It was legal, it was the wall, it doesnt mean the law is correct. Reporter they say they are willing to face arrest, and they hope that those that support them will join in solidarity. They call it moms hand moms house. I am working with my colleagues inside city hall, to explore, what we can do in terms of systemic policies that will hold accountable the corporate speculators that are leaving these homes vacant. Sheriffs deputies can evict the women and their children if they dont leave on their own. The Property Owner hopes they will not be forced to leave that way. We are hopeful, they will leave voluntarily and peacefully. Thats the right thing to do they never shouldve broken in. Us both. Perks person does the judge has a important message. This does protect everyones rights to personal, private property and not have it broken into, or invaded by squatters. Reporter the women are asking their supporters to mobilize here at six a. M. 6 30 a. M. I talked to the Sheriffs Department and asked for an eviction plan but they are keeping it to themselves. Thank you. Smores perspective on the ruling today you will hear we are joined, by michael cardozo. Thank you for coming in. This is a fascinating case weve been watching on fold here , a huge ruling today. The mothers who are staying in that home were arguing, essentially what, housing is a human right. That is why we deserve to be able to stay in this home that is unoccupied. Why do you believe the judge projected that argument . It might be a simple answer but thats the law you cant just squat in someone elses house. Even they said well, we understand why the judge did this that leads to asked the question instead of squatting get the people to get the laws changed the way you want them. What will be interesting, is they have said we are not moving out. The judge said to the sheriff, get them out. Evict them. So i think monday or tuesday the sheriffs will show up, and say you have to move. They will say no, they are probably going to get arrested and forcefully evicted. In the sheriffs will move their things out of the house. Now the interesting question will then be, will the district atty. Prosecute them for trespassing . My point is if i was a district atty. Of alameda i would tell the sheriffs arrest them, put them in jail, but do not bring it to us because we are not going to prosecute that. If you prosecute it, you give them a bully pulpit to get on, and you bring all the protesters in and then you are at the courthouse, it will turn into a circus. So the da probably will go nowhere. Not prosecute, not a form to push this. Then the question will become will the jury convict him of trespassing and its not worth it. The judge makes this ruling today, do these moms have any past forward or is this the final say . Can their attorneys to every anything up their sleeve . They can appeal it, but in the intern theyre going to move them out they have been evicted. The way to get it done, and i wouldve been shocked by the board of supervisors a couple three of then of them said they are on their side and most of us to understand the homelessness problem and the housing problem and we are empathetic to that. What we do have to do is take the emotion out of this. Both sides get too emotional, then nothing gets done but name calling. We need people, to sit down and come up with a rational decision. Heres an empty house, the company bought, and they want to make money with it it sits empty. Are they letting it become dilapidated . Or an eyesore . If they are have laws to say you cannot do that. If you do that we will take it from you. To that end though you brought this up the group moms for housing, they essentially said they want the california constitution to be amended. To say housing, is in fact a right. All of us here in the state have. So how likely is that to happen . Whats the pathway to change the laws . Honestly, the likelihood is none thats not going to happen. You make it all right, does that give you a right to go into any house you want that unoccupied . Theoretically you go on vacation always empty, they get to move into your house . That will not happen. So we have to come up with some rational solutions. For example, if it does sit the company buys it says we will let it sit for five years, we will make a lot of money on resell we wont fix it let it be an eyesore. Maybe limit on how long can sit vacant . Exactly. To something that can be in eminent domain. Maybe make it Affordable Housing for the homeless. You cant just let people move in their into empty homes it will turn to chaos and then people arent going to want to invest in homes if that happens, that money will move out of the community, and the community will go in further downhill. Do you think this will detour people . Or will we see more people, maybe making moves like this . It depends on how emotional they get, we will do this, we will fight every step of the way, it will not do them much good, they will get the same ruling and get tossed out. We do appreciate you weighing in. There is no easy solution is there. We pray appreciate you coming in. Still to come, House Speaker nancy pelosi said she will soon send the articles of impeachment over to the senate. The fight is still ongoing for lawmakers to agree on what the senate trial will look like. We will break all of this down coming up at 4 30. Another sanction of rounds in iran. Why some in Congress Wants more specific answers from the ministration on the reasoning behind the strike that killed and iranian general. I mostly cold and clear start to the day. Increasing cloud cover and a chance for rain moving in. Details after the break. When we were looking for a roommate, he wanted someone super quiet. Yeah, and he wanted someone to help out with chores. So, we got jeanpierre. But one thing we could both agree on was getting geico to help with renters insurance. Yeah, geico did make it easy to switch and save. Oh no. Theres a wall there now. Thats too bad. Visit geico. Com and see how easy saving on renters insurance can be. Fox news learned the us launched a drone strike at a runny military official in yemen, the same date the strike in iraq killed the top general. It was not successful there was more sections against iran today. We will continue to apply, economic sanctions until iran stops its terrorist activities, and commits it will never have nuclear weapons. Pres. Trompe signed the executive order imposing additional sanctions friday afternoon. In a statement he says, he follows through on his promise to deny iran substantial revenue that could fund its Nuclear Program Missile Development and terrorism terrorists moves in the sanction is cting, textile or mining section of the iranian economy. It also second sanctions eight key iranian officials. That is the regimes brute squad. There appeared to be some disconnect between the president and the top diplomat a gets the specific implements that Qassam Soleimani impose before he was killed. We will tell you probably was going to be the embassy in baghdad. On friday, sec. Pompeo revise his comment which has not satisfied all lawmakers. s threat were going to be on us embassies. This is the first time we are hearing about attacks on our future attacks on embassies. And fox has confirmed another drone strike has happened the same night that Qassam Soleimani was killed, that strike was not successful. In washington, lauren blanchard, fox news. On wall street, stocks were down department rip ports hiring slowed in december. The dow was down 133 points, nasdaq fell 24, smp was down nine points. Employers added one 45,000 jobs in december, which was less than the one 60,000 that the economist had expected for more on the economy, we are joined by Financial Advisor james make ride, thank you for coming in. Lets start with the job numbers we just got. How concerned you think people should be about this slow down in hiring we saw in december . Not too much, you look at this at a monthtomonth basis is tricky. The important thing is this is the 111th straight month of job growth. Growth is growth, so we are seeing an extraordinary job picture thats why the unemployment is at three is at 3 1 2 . Thats why consumer common confidence is a high number of the leading one. One 45 when its a part of 111 straight months, is a terrific number. Youre saying you dont want to get too bogged down on any specific figures when it comes to the economy. You have to step back and look at the big picture. Yes. This week dominated by the conflict between the us and iran, obviously we know that weighed heavily on the market as a room and look to see, where things are going to go. With the conflict. Toward the end of the week, we saw signs of deescalation. How much do you think that could or put investors at ease. So far its been up for the year those are all good signs another thing look at the price of oil. The market thought there was going to be a war in the middle east, oil would spike it with it actually came down. Also, gold is a safe haven, that come down from 16. 19 to 16 and 53 so the safe havens would go up if people thought we were going to war if we were going to the war in the middle east, i promise you oil would go up. We think investors want to see moving forward . In terms of a reaction, response from the us, to this ongoing tension with iran . I think they would like to see what theyve seen in the last few days, no activity by iran or the United States, no news is good news on that front i think the market, is thinking this will work itself out. Okay let me ask you about todays news, from the trading session, the dow hit this intercession high of going above 29,000 and then dropping at the end of the session how significant is that . I think its pretty insignificant because the market did close positive for the weekend year. Remember we are coming off extraordinarily good year with the dow, smp and nasdaq up 25 28 and nasdaq 30 . Sorry i something caught in my throat. You can help us move along. I was up ahead to next week. On wall street. Us, and china will sign phase 1 of their trade deal. How big of an impact does that have . I think its one of the sick most significant economic accomplishments and one of the in a long time. Theyll be great for the United States particularly our work farmers and manufacturers. I also think that china is readjusting to the world, the new world out there that says everybody has to be a little bit more responsible to lower chairs and be more fair in things like intellectual property, and relationships coming in and out of markets. I think its a good deal, i think the trumpet ministration deserves some high marks. Okay we have to leave the conversation there i will get a cough drop, we will see how things play out next week. Thank you james. My pleasure. Our meteorologist is checking in with a look at the Current Conditions around the bay area.
