Rep. Andy Ogles, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 5th district, has shared a series of tweets expressing his views on Judge Chuang’s judicial history and recent rulings. These posts highlight Ogles’ perspective on the influence of political affiliations within the judiciary.
On March 25, 2025, Rep. Ogles tweeted about Judge Chuang’s background: “No surprise here. Judge Chuang’s history is steeped in Democrat activism. From 1992-1994, as editor of the Harvard Law Review, he championed articles pushing Critical Race Theory, affirmative action, and a Marxist spin on America’s foundations.”
In another tweet posted on the same day, Ogles criticized the constitutional authority of district judges: “Let’s be clear: unelected district judges have zero constitutional authority to dictate terms to a duly elected President on executive actions. Chuang’s ruling is a blatant power grab—plain and simple.”
Further detailing Judge Chuang’s political affiliations before his judicial appointment by President Obama in 2013, Ogles noted: “Before Obama put him on the bench in 2013, Chuang was a Democratic Party stalwart. Vice President of Montgomery County’s District 16 Democratic Club in 2009, Board member for the Coalition of Asian-Pacific American Democrats of Maryland, and Precinct Chair for Montgomery.”
