Representative Andy Ogles, who currently serves in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 5th district, has expressed views and announcements through his recent social media posts. These include discussions on trade and references to popular political tropes.

On April 9, 2025, Ogles stated on social media, "America is back! Join me and @RepStutzman for a live conversation on tariffs. We’re fighting for American workers—not foreign countries." This comment underscores his focus on domestic economic interests over international ones, inviting public engagement in the discourse on tariffs alongside another representative.

Later that same day, Ogles shared a brief post with the words, "ART OF THE DEAL ", accompanied by a patriotic symbol. This message implies a nod to negotiation tactics and strategies in line with a well-known political phrase, while maintaining an association with national pride.

In his final post of the day, at 7:18 p.m., Ogles remarked simply, "MAGA told you so." With this post, he resonated with the often cited ‘Make America Great Again’ tagline, suggesting that past predictions made under this banner are coming to fruition.

Ogles, born in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1971, has an educational background that includes degrees from Middle Tennessee State University and Western Kentucky University. He resides in Columbia, Tennessee.
