President Donald Trump celebrated Texas border statistics for July, noting that not a single illegal alien was released into the U.S. last month. 

He congratulated the Lone Star State in a TruthSocial post on Tuesday, stating, “The July Border Statistics are in and, once again, they are the LOWEST RECORDED NUMBERS IN UNITED STATES HISTORY. The U.S. Border Patrol reported ZERO releases of Illegal Aliens into the Country. Texas’ Border is Safe and Secure, and the entire World knows it.”

The 47th president then pointed out that the border must remain secure to protect the American voting process in the 2026 midterms.

Last fall, Cofounder and Policy Director for the Immigration Accountability Project, Rosemary Jenks, testified before the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives during “The Biden-Harris Border Crisis: Noncitizen Voting” investigation. She reported that illegal immigrants were found on voter rolls in Alabama, Louisiana, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia during voter roll cleanups.

Although illegal immigrants are not legally allowed to vote in U.S. elections, Jenks reported that the 1993 National Voter Registration Act, or “Motor Voter Law,” placed voter registration in the hands of the DMV, creating a pathway for illegal immigrants to vote. In 2002, the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) further weakened election integrity by only requiring states to verify the name and address of individuals who are registering to vote, completely ignoring their citizenship status.  

President Donald Trump is working to resecure elections as he has resecured the southern border. On Monday, RSBN reported that he is working to eliminate mail-in ballots and replace inefficient voting machines.

In addition, he is standing with Texas lawmakers who seek to straighten out the Texas congressional map and redistrict the state. Five House Seats could be flipped from blue to red if the map is approved, via RSBN

Trump reaffirmed his support of redistricting in his post that congratulated the state on its border patrol successes. He then stated, “I call on all of my Republican friends in the Legislature to work as fast as they can to get THIS MAP to Governor Greg Abbott’s desk, ASAP.”

The 2026 midterms are a hot topic as America First leaders seek to codify policies that protect American elections and American citizenship rights.
