New York Times columnist Charles Blow joined MSNBC’s Joy Reid on Thursday’s installment of The ReidOut to react to the reaction to the New Orleans New Year’s truck attack by an ISIS supporter that killed 14 people where he claimed that the big problem is that the attack was “one crime committed by one name that sounds exotic,” and that allows people to ignore the “really big problem, which is young white men in America.” Reid led Blow with a statement rather than a question, “And last word to you on this, Charles, because this is the challenge. It's very difficult to feel safe when, on top of everything that Mayor Landrieu just said, you have politicians that have a self-interest in lying about everything because it helps them with the political narrative, not concerned about the human narrative that could actually be really helpful.”     Reid did not explicitly mention Donald Trump in that statement, but she mentioned him earlier in the segment and MSNBC’s chyron made it obvious that is who she was referring to and while Trump did prematurely blame the attack on an immigrant, Blow was about to prove that he too can use a terrorist act to spin an unrelated political narrative: And that is the tragedy of all of this, right? There are real tragedies. There will always be crime. You know, unfortunately what we try to do is keep the crime as low as possible. All different kinds of people will commit crimes. The problem here is that you jump on one sort of crime, one crime committed by one name that sounds exotic, one brown face, rather than looking at all of the domestic terror that we face, including what the FBI says is a really big problem, which is young white men in America. We need to look at all of our domestic terrorism and say, this all is a problem. Some people might argue that the attack in New Orleans proves the FBI should reevaluate that conclusion, but imagine what MSNBC’s reaction would have been if someone said the problem in America “is young brown men” or Muslims writ large. Joy Reid would have to rename her show The FreakOut. Here is a transcript for the January 2 show: MSNBC The ReidOut 1/2/2024 7:14 PM ET JOY REID: And last word to you on this, Charles, because this is the challenge. It's very difficult to feel safe when, on top of everything that Mayor Landrieu just said, you have politicians that have a self-interest in lying about everything because it helps them with the political narrative, not concerned about the human narrative that could actually be really helpful.

President-elect Donald Trump wished Mike Johnson "good luck" ahead of the speaker's bid for re-election on Friday.To secure a second term as speaker, Johnson needs to secure 218 votes of the 219 Republican members in the House, meaning he can afford only one GOP "no" vote. Although Republicans are operating within a historically narrow majority, several fiscally conservative Republicans are expected to be roadblocks for Johnson's speakership.Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky has already publicly committed not to vote for Johnson. Other Republicans like Chip Roy of Texas, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, and Michael Cloud of Texas have remained undecided, with some asking for further commitments from the speaker. All 215 Democrats are expected to be present for the vote, tightening Johnson's already slim margins. "Good luck today for Speaker Mike Johnson, a fine man of great ability, who is very close to having 100% support," Trump said in a Friday post on Truth Social. "A win for Mike today will be a big win for the Republican Party, and yet another acknowledgment of our 129 year most consequential Presidential Election!! - A BIG AFFIRMATION, INDEED. MAGA!""Thank you, President Trump!" Johnson said in response. "Today is a new day in America. Congressional Republicans must stay united to quickly deliver President Trump’s America First agenda. Let’s get it done."Trump officially endorsed Johnson on Monday following the funding debacle in mid-December. Although Republican lawmakers, MAGA allies, and Trump himself were displeased with Johnson's handling of the spending fight, the president-elect ultimately backed the speaker for another term. "The American people need IMMEDIATE relief from all of the destructive policies of the last Administration," Trump said in a Truth Social post on Monday. "Speaker Mike Johnson is a good, hard working, religious man. He will do the right thing, and we will continue to WIN. Mike has my Complete & Total Endorsement. MAGA!!!"Like Blaze News?

iOS 18.2 has been available for a few weeks now. However, some iPhone users — myself included — noticed a bug that has prevented the camera from working since they updated to this new version. A Reddit thread was posted two weeks ago, and users are still complaining about the issue with no fix in sight. The user who initially posted the thread on Reddit wrote: Ever since i updated to ios 18.2 my camera refuses to work sometimes, for example i try to use the camera app it’s just a black screen, have to re open it 2-3 sometimes to finally get it to work, same for snapchat the camera will just be black and have to restart the app once or twice to get it to work. My flash light also refuses work or is very delayed to activate via the action button or control center sometimes, more often via action button it doesn’t work. One of the top comments on this thread mentioned the same issues: "Same with me, too. I thought it was my phone at first, but looking at forums, it seemed to be happening with 18.2. I just got my phone last weekend, so I thought it was just my phone and was about to go back and exchange it, but it seems to be a SW issue. I get the same black screen whether I use the camera control button, camera icon, or from the lock screen." I have personally been dealing with this iOS 18.2 camera bug, specifically when opening the iPhone 16 Pro camera with the Camera Control before being recognized by Face ID. By pressing the Camera Control with the display locked, the camera app usually opens to a black screen, and even Face ID stops working. Fortunately, reports claim that Apple is working on an iOS 18.2.1 update. While it's unclear if this version could fix this particular iOS 18.2 bug, some iPhone users found that replacing their device with Apple doesn't even fix the bug. Another option is to download iOS 18.3 beta 1. A new build is expected soon, as Apple is rumored to be planning a release for later this month.
