NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Rep. Andy Ogles called for the National Guard to be sent to Nashville on X Wednesday.

We don’t just need the National Guard in Memphis, send them to Nashville. Comrade O'Connell is using the city as an outpost for international gangs to set up shop in our neighborhoods.

Punish criminals and the Mayors who work for them. — Rep. Andy Ogles (@RepOgles) September 3, 2025
