Hi, everyone. It is 4 00 in New York. Ever heard the saying history does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes . Keep that in mind as we see natural disasters disrupting the natural churn of campaigns, and as we witness Donald Trumps response and the hurricanes that are right now putting millions of lives, american lives in danger as we come on the air.

a goal nor some sort of accomplishment that he was looking for in sharing these documents. of course, there s some anti-government sentiment. howard: it s a dilemma, why would journalists blow the whistle on a leaker disclosing classified secrets, which is a crime, when they d eagerly accept such material which is not a crime? if the media agree with an i agenda such as when daniel ellsberg leaked the pentagon papers, they turned him into a hero. one crucial difference here, the top secret material wasn t given to a news outlet which could be held accountable, but mosted posted on social media where anyone could see it. so who, exactly, is responsible? more on this ahead with veteran national security reporter glenn greenwald. i m howard kurtz and this is mediabuzz. howard: ron desan us the just signed a 6-week ban on abortion in florida tweeting out a single picture after 11:00 at night. the governor s quiet move came as a ruling by a federal judge in texas again put
