Rep. Andy Ogles, U.S. Congressman representing Tennessee’s 5th district, made several posts on October 14, 2025, addressing topics ranging from commemorating Charlie Kirk to a local train derailment.
In his first post of the day, Ogles recognized the birthday of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and referenced an upcoming honor from former President Donald Trump. He wrote, “Today would have been Charlie Kirk’s 32nd birthday. President Trump will honor him with our nation’s highest civilian award: the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
I am now calling on Congress to go further. Charlie’s courage, patriotism, and service to America deserve to be https://t.co/1If5MJbm6M” (October 14, 2025).
Later that afternoon, Ogles commented on recent government actions in another post. He stated, “Yes! We will not give an inch. Democrats shut down the government for woke pork. https://t.co/uP1kAduz2o” (October 14, 2025).
In a subsequent message regarding public safety in Columbia, Tennessee—a city within his congressional district—Ogles provided updates following a train derailment incident. He posted, “My team is monitoring the train derailment in Columbia. Join me in praying for any potential victims.
Please follow the Columbia Police Department’s social media channels for the latest updates on road closures.” (October 14, 2025).
Ogles has represented Tennessee’s 5th congressional district since January 2023 and frequently uses social media platforms to communicate directly with constituents about both national issues and local emergencies.
