President Trump has ordered the creation of a new census, instructing the Commerce Department not to count illegal aliens in this one.

Have you taken your place on the wall?

 

From The Daily Wire:

“I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS.”

The Census Bureau also says that illegal immigrants, whom it refers to as “unauthorized migrants,” are included in censuses and surveys and added into “the total foreign-born population.”

The Daily Wire not that the decision not to include illegal aliens in the census could run into legal trouble. However, it could also change the makeup of the House, as the government said multiple states were incorrectly undercounted after the 2020 census.

This also comes as Republicans on Texas,  in a similar vein, have been pursuing redistribution plans that would add five Republican seats. If both efforts are successful, the 2026 midterm elections could look at lot different.

Let’s pray for the Commerce Department as it creates a new census. And let’s pray that our elected officials and our leaders would better represent the American people as a result of this census!

Father, I thank you for the wisdom, Your Wisdom that is guiding this nation into holiness. It is not in pride that a census is taken, but rather for protection and integrity that this census must be done. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one for this is what your kingdom is made of. Raise up your remnant to make a way for the Lord and release your Holy Spirit into the seven mountains. Let us rule and reign in the name of Jesus!
