Rep. Andy Ogles, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 5th district, shared his views on border security through a series of tweets on November 5, 2024. The tweets focused on criticism of the Democratic Party's approach to border control and proposed solutions.
In a tweet posted at 17:09 UTC, Ogles stated that if Democrats were genuinely concerned about border security, they would not release "rapists and murderers" into neighborhoods. "If Democrats were really concerned about border security, they wouldn't release rapists and murderers into your neighborhood."
Later, at 18:53 UTC, he expressed concerns over the number of criminal illegal aliens allegedly allowed by the Biden-Harris administration, claiming it exceeds the population of Tennessee. He argued that Democrat policies have eroded American sovereignty over the past four years and called for reclaiming it. "Criminal illegal aliens let in by the Biden-Harris regime outnumber the entire population of Tennessee." He added, "Democrat policies have single-handedly eroded American sovereignty in the last four years. It's time to take it back."
In a subsequent tweet at 21:03 UTC, Ogles proposed a straightforward solution to what he described as a border crisis: deportation. "There is a simple policy solution to solve our border crisis. Deport. Them. All."
