Questions Arise On GOP Rep’s Loan To His Campaign

November 30, 2023 Politics, Republicans

Phil Williams reports for Nashville’s NBC affiliate:

Where did Congressman Andy Ogles get $320,000 that he claims to have loaned his campaign? As NewsChannel 5 Investigates followed the money involving Middle Tennessee’s newest member of Congress, that investigation turned up even more questions about the Maury County Republican.

Now in Congress, NewsChannel 5 Investigates discovered that Ogles has not disclosed any substantial investments. He doesn’t even report having a savings account. Missing from Ogles’ report is any reference to any bank accounts or other assets of more than a thousand dollars, which must be disclosed.

It’s a transparency issue that’s been highlighted by the George Santos case. Santos did it, the indictment says, “for the purpose of making the committee appear more financially sound than it was.”

Read the full article. As has been previously reported, Ogles has been dogged by questions about his past that have generated other comparisons to Santos.
