Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Jan. 18 criticized the vetting of National Guard troops who are guarding Washington, calling it offensive.

“This is the most offensive thing I’ve ever heard,” Abbott, a Republican, wrote on Twitter. “No one should ever question the loyalty or professionalism of the Texas National Guard.”
