Trump’s Weekend Was Ruined: World Leader Slams His Racist Policies, Former Presidents Indict His Record, and Minnesota Outplays Him
Plus, a perjury investigation into Noem, and Hakeem Jeffries calls for regime change
The resistance is winning. Corporate media won’t tell you that, but we will. A perjury investigation into a fired cabinet secretary. A world leader calling out Trump’s racist policies. And a Democratic governor outmaneuvering him. All in today’s edition.
Our Midterm Accountability Project is how we flip Congress in November—reader-funded, resistance-focused, and built entirely by paid subscribers committed to relentlessly holding this corrupt regime accountable. Be part of it:
AMERICA SAYS GOODBYE TO A CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER
Reverend Jesse Jackson marched alongside Martin Luther King Jr., ran for president twice—and the world is smaller without him. Three former presidents—Obama, Biden, and Clinton—along with former VP Kamala Harris honored him at his memorial in Chicago on Friday.
Obama didn’t mince words. “Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions,” he said. “Another setback to the idea of the rule of law. An offense to common decency. Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible.”
Jackson’s example, Obama said, “inspires us to take a harder path.” He added: “If we don’t step up, no one else will.”
Biden closed with a command: “Jesse kept hope alive for us. We’ve got a commitment to do it in our lifetime for our children. Because there’s nothing beyond our capacity when we work together. So stand up and finish the job.”
KRISTI NOEM MAY FACE PERJURY PROBE
Trump fired Kristi Noem and handed her a consolation prize: Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas—a title he invented last week. Dem Sen. Richard Blumenthal isn’t impressed. He announced he’s pushing for a perjury investigation after Noem denied under oath that her senior adviser Corey Lewandowski had any role in approving agency contracts.
The evidence is damning. DHS records show Lewandowski personally signed off on contracts, with staff relying on his approval for spending. In one instance, DHS awarded a $250,000 contract to a new GOP consulting group with no prior government experience.
They required “an established track record of promoting Trump administration policies,” and allowed just one day of bidding for the job.
“Her firing doesn’t absolve her or relieve her of potential liability for perjury,” Blumenthal said. “We are going to pursue an investigation of the evidence that she lied, because it relates to corruption in the administration.”
Noem thought getting fired meant getting away with everything. Congress has other plans.
A WORLD LEADER SLAMS TRUMP’S RACISM
In a recent New York Times interview, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa slammed Trump over an Oval Office meeting they had in May 2025.
He recalled how Trump dimmed lights to show propaganda footage claiming to document “white genocide,” along with newspaper clippings—some of which had nothing to do with South Africa.
Ramaphosa—who survived apartheid and helped negotiate South Africa’s democratic transition with Nelson Mandela—called Trump’s policy of prioritizing white refugees “racist,” a word he used repeatedly. He also said the meeting with Trump was nothing more than a “spectacle” and an “ambush.”
“I just thought that he is so uninformed, truly uninformed,” Ramaphosa said. “I realized that he is looking at South Africa through a completely foggy lens, without realizing the real harm that apartheid did. In my view, he was just dismissive.”
The White House responded by ignoring everything Ramaphosa said and issued a statement about itself.
TRUMP GOT PLAYED. HE HAD NO IDEA.
Two days after federal agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, Trump called Gov. Tim Walz to complain. Trump wanted to know “what’s wrong with Minnesota,” comparing the state to Louisville and New Orleans, where there had been less resistance to ICE. Walz was furious: “You didn’t kill anyone there.”
Walz told Politico later: “It’s infuriating that you got to let him think he won or whatever … That’s not how adults usually negotiate.” So he did. Within days, Trump began pulling his agents out of Minnesota—without, Walz insisted, getting a single concession out of leaders there.
Border Czar Tom Homan later declared they’d secured “an unprecedented level of coordination.” Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey made it clear: “There were no deals cut.”
Walz played him. Trump retreated.
WARREN CALLS OUT REGIME’S FAILURE
The US economy lost 92,000 jobs in February—the third time in five months payrolls declined. The unemployment rate hit 4.4%. Oil reached its highest level in nearly two years, driven by Trump’s illegal war in Iran. 2025 was the first year to record five months of job losses in fifteen years.
Dem Sen. Elizabeth Warren was direct: Trump’s “failed economic agenda is tanking the job market and making life more expensive for American families.”
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries was blunt: “Gas prices are up. ICE is out of control. And Republicans have started another costly war in the Middle East. We need regime change in November. VOTE.”

I have two questions for you today.
What do you think about how Gov. Walz played Trump?
Do you think Kristi Noem should face perjury charges for lying to Congress?







I’m so ready for November. What about you?
A bad weekend for Grump means a great weekend for America
