This claim is in the show notes, the publisher's own words. It counts against the post, once.
What we found
Supports. The DOJ U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Texas announced that seven non-citizens were charged with unlawfully voting in federal elections or falsely claiming U.S. citizenship in a sweeping federal election integrity operation.[2]
Supports. Multiple outlets, including AP and Dallas News, report the same seven federal charges in North Texas, with the investigation described as a coordinated federal and state effort.[1][4][5][6]
Context. Texas AG Paxton's office also announced the arrests and collaborated on the investigation; a later DOJ announcement added an eighth Texas arrest on Sept. 19, which does not alter the seven-charge count as of the announcement date.[3][7]
