Daniel Miller, President of the Texas Nationalist Movement, has issued the following statement regarding the election results in Texas.
Last night, Donald Trump won the presidency. While many Texans are hopeful about what this victory means for our future, the sobering reality remains – the fundamental problems with the federal system persist. The $34 trillion in federal debt still looms, illegal immigration continues unabated, federal overregulation still strangles Texas businesses and families, and inflation continues to eat away at our savings.
When Trump won in 2016, pundits and armchair quarterbacks predicted the demise of our movement. Instead, the TNM nearly doubled in registered supporters as Texans witnessed firsthand how immune the federal system is to meaningful reform.
Our mission remains unchanged: to secure and protect the political, cultural, and economic independence of the nation of Texas and to restore and protect a constitutional Republic and the inherent rights of the people of Texas. Tomorrow we continue the work that began 19 years ago this month to move Texas toward full self-government and independence.
For those who think our work is somehow less urgent now – remember this: 2.5 million unelected federal bureaucrats were not on the ballot last night. Any attempts by the new administration to curb their power and agenda of centralization will face even fiercer resistance than before. The federal machinery remains firmly in place.
In fact, Texans must work even harder now to prepare for independence. We’re sending more Texas First Pledge signers to the next legislative session than ever before. This is our moment to push for the most ambitious pro-Texas, pro-independence agenda in our history. But make no mistake – the political elite, the Washington establishment, and their willing accomplices here in Texas will mount a full-scale assault to stop us.
Meanwhile, the opposition is already gathering strength, biding their time to retake the reins of federal power. Their inevitable obstruction of the new administration will create one crisis after another. But these actions will only serve to remind Texans that it’s the federal system itself that’s broken – not just who sits behind the desk in the Oval Office. The system is fundamentally unredeemable.
Our mission remains clear, our momentum is strong, and our progress is undeniable. With expanding county organizations, growing media coverage reaching hundreds of millions, and more Texas First Pledge signers heading to the Legislature than ever before, we’re closer than ever to our goal. I encourage all Texans to remain vigilant and maintain our momentum. If you haven’t already, join us at TNM.ME, become a member of the Texas Nationalist Movement, and help us secure and protect a free, independent, and prosperous Texas. Our mission and the path to Texas independence remains unchanged.
“Texas will again lift its head and stand among the nations.” – Sam Houston.
