Can the repayments be claimed as I was already taxed for a tsp general-purpose loan?

No, you can't claim repayments on a loan you took from your retirement plan (Thrift Savings Plan) on your tax return.
When you take a loan out from a 401(k) plan, the money you take out is tax-exempt as long as you pay it back on time. As you make payments, the interest you pay is paid to your 401(k) account.
Refer to the TurboTax article What happens if I have a 401(k) loan but later lose or quit my job? if you stop working at your job.
it was taxed when they gave it to me it came out of the loan
You may need to call in and discuss that with the Administrator (or phone agent) for those 401k funds .
If you didn't set up a separate repayment plan, then it wasn't set up as an actual loan.
A loan isn't taxed (unless you fail to repay). A distribution almost always has tax withholding.
