Veterans Call On Their Insurance Co. To Yank Tucker Carlson Ads After He Calls Gen. Milley A ‘Pig'
 [HUFF Poo] Veterans associations, furious vets and military personnel are calling on their insurance company to yank ads from Fox News and Tucker Carlson's program after he called Gen. Mark Milley, a "pig" for schooling Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) during congressional testimony.Carlson went after the nation's highest-ranking military officer on Thursday, saying Milley's "not only a pig, but stupid" after the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff put Gaetz in his place. Milley told lawmakers ‐ most pointedly Gaetz ‐ that it's important for military personnel to be "open minded," "widely read" and educated about issues, including about Critical Race Theory. "What is wrong with understanding? Having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?" an irritated Milley asked Wednesday during the House Armed Services Committee hearing, which left Gaetz shaking his head in disgust. Carlson came back Friday to again attack Milley, slamming his remarks as "disgraceful." Now veterans, service members and other customers are calling on the United Services Automobile Association (USAA), a banking and insurance company which primarily serves vets and their families, to stop supporting Carlson's show with advertising dollars.
