Rep. Andy Ogles, U.S. Congressman representing Tennessee’s 5th district, made a series of posts on his official X (formerly Twitter) account on October 15 and 16, 2025, expressing strong views regarding various public figures and legal matters.
On October 15, Ogles posted: “Jail Jack Smith!” This statement was published at 21:05 UTC.
The following day, Ogles made another post at 13:32 UTC stating: “Deport Mamdani. Sounds like he may have lied on his citizenship forms.”
Later the same day, at 15:38 UTC, Ogles added: “Ban Sharia Law!”
Ogles has previously been known for making public statements that reflect his political positions and has been an advocate for conservative policies in Congress. The referenced individuals in Ogles’ posts—Jack Smith and Mamdani—are public figures who have been involved in national legal and political discussions.
The congressman’s comments come at a time when public debate around immigration, citizenship processes, and religious law continues to be a topic of legislative and societal focus in the United States.
