Jasmine Guy addressing some of the horrible comments about her looks and folks criticizing how she's aged. She encourages people to spend less time judging each other and more time loving one another.

Another very good forecast update for Democrats today. Now up 7.8 on the generic ballot or 8.6 on the likely-voter version. That is deeply into wave territory.
Mehdi Hasan: "Why did you put out an Al video pretending Trump endorsed you? Were you drunk when you did that?"
Nancy Mace: "I do not drink. That's disgusting. You're defaming me."
Mehdi: "Your former comms director told New York Magazine you drank all day. Staffers bought you alcohol at 2 a.m. Take it up with her."
Mace: "Name the person!"
Mehdi: "Natalie Johnson. Your former comms director."
Ce soir, je tremperai des pommes dans du miel avec ma famille et formulerai des vœux fervents pour une année plus douce à venir. Nous vivons une époque effrayante, mais il reste tant à savourer, notamment notre liberté de bâtir l'espoir ensemble dans la lutte collective. Joyeux Roch Hachana à tous ceux et celles qui célèbrent cette fête !
Not so fast: airports may very well be on the auction block at the investment summit.
We've seen a copy of the pitch book for Carney's investor summit, and here's an interesting paragraph:
"The federal government is also exploring new models of infrastructure ownership and investment to unlock additional sources of capital, including the intention to maximize the full value and economic potential of Canada’s airports by modernizing governance and increasing capacity.
Together with the focus on export and trade diversification, the Canadian transportation sector is creating opportunities for long-term investment, modernization and asset growth."
That's a lot of words to say "airports could still be up for sale."
NEW: Liberals are bracing for a membership count that could land not far from where they started the leadership contest, suggesting the race hasn’t done much to swell the party’s ranks.
The five campaigns won’t say how many new members they’ve signed up.

Soon we will all realise that there is nothing inherently progressive about being queer or homosexual.
It is just a sexuality, like any other inherent trait.
Queer people can be racists, fascists, misogynists, sexists and terrorists. It is not a protective shield from the "isms".
Happy Labour Day!
Workers built this country and keep it running every day. No matter where you work, you deserve good wages, strong protections and benefits that help you afford a good life.
Avi Lewis and our NDP team will keep fighting for workers, in Parliament, in union halls, on shop floors and picket lines across the country.
Solidarity forever ✊
