National Guard from the inauguration service removed its 12 members, including two for inappropriate remarks or messages, Pentagon spokesperson said. We have two individuals that were identified as making inappropriate comments or texts, said spokesperson Jonathan Hoffman.
After the member s inappropriate remarks, the suspension took place to guard officers attention by fellow troops. After an anonymous tip, another member was taken out, he said.
For suspicious conduct found in the screening process, the other 10 Guard members were dismissed, Hokanson said, stressing that this does not necessarily mean that they have links to extremists, but merely that they were identified and removed from service out of an abundance of caution.

Late on Monday night, Duterte instructed the soldiers of the Presidential Security Group (PSG) not obey the summons and that they stay put in the barracks, saying that he would not allow them to be brutalized for all their good intentions before a Senate investigation.
