HOLY COW: Rudy Giuliani, another new Donald Trump lawyer, admits that Trump reimbursed former lawyer Michael Cohen for the payoff to Stormy Daniels. Trump had previously denied that -- on camera. And the fact that it happened on Sean Hannity's TV show makes it even better.

• The Fox 4 News morning show went on the air 30 minutes early today (4:00 a.m.) in anticipation for the storms. That didn't work out well.
