Some Texas Army National Guard soldiers deployed to Chicago have been sent home for failing to meet fitness standards after a photo of obese troops went viral. "A small group" of the 200 National Guard soldiers sent to Illinois last week have been replaced for not being "in compliance" with its validation process. The embarassing switch comes after the inter-galactically unqualified SECDEF Pete "Hic!" Hegseth, a former weekend TV tumor on Faux News, whined that he was tired of seeing "fat troops" giving the military "a bad look" during a boring speech to hundreds of senior military commanders on 30 Sep. After the soporific screed, Hegseth mandated that active-duty troops take two physical fitness tests each year and work out every day. Hegseth praised the Texas National Guard replacements in a social media post: "Standards are back at The @DeptofWar," the racist misogynist boasted on social media, until the chubby BBQ-loving Texans were photographed.
A Chicago federal appeals court on Saturday allowed troops to remain federalized in Illinois, but temporarily blocked their active deployment. Dummkopf Trumpf had ordered the troops there to protect federal officials at a suburban ICE gulag where masked federal thugs have been shooting pepper balls and deploying chemical weapons against unarmed American citizens. Dummkopf Trumpf, who dodged the draft during the Vietnam War, does not like seeing wounded or crippled Soldiers. Trumpf also reportedly called US Marines who died at Belleau Wood "suckers" and fallen US Army Soldiers at Aisne-Marne American Cemetery "losers."
