Rep. Andy Ogles, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee's 5th district since 2023, has been vocal on various political issues through his social media presence. His recent statements reflect his stance on the administrative state, community defense, and justice system reform.
On December 9, 2024, Rep. Ogles expressed his commitment to addressing what he perceives as the "administrative state’s weaponization," emphasizing support for President Trump during his initial period in office. He stated: "I remain committed to dismantling the administrative state’s weaponization, ensuring President Trump can lead—especially during his critical first 100 days."
Later that day, Ogles praised Daniel Penny for his actions in defending his community, describing him as a hero. He tweeted: "Daniel Penny stood in the gap and defended his community. He is a hero."
On December 10, 2024, Ogles commented on what he termed the "woke weaponization" of the justice system. He called for an end to this trend and advocated for truth to prevail in judicial matters. He remarked: "Agreed. It is time for the woke weaponization of our justice system to end and blind truth to once again prevail."
