Trump's endorsement collides with $1.3M effort to oust House ally
A key congressional primary in Tennessee's 5th Congressional District pits Trump-backed Rep. Andy Ogles against Charlie Hatcher, who received an endorsement from Gov. Bill Lee. Despite Ogles having endorsements from President Donald Trump and leaders like Mike Johnson and Jim Jordan, he faces a challenge from the Invest in Tomorrow Coalition super PAC, which spent roughly $1.3 million favoring Hatcher.
