Peanut the Squirrel's Death Sparks Outcry and Alleged Impact on Trump Victory

The controversial euthanization of a pet squirrel has become a symbol of government overreach, stirring emotions and political discourse.

Mark Longo, the owner of Peanut the Squirrel, believes the animal's death may have influenced Donald Trump's election win.
Hundreds gathered at a memorial service in New York to honor Peanut and Fred the Raccoon, both euthanized by state authorities.
The incident has been criticized as an example of government overreach, drawing comments from public figures like Elon Musk and Joe Rogan.
Longo, who did not vote, invited President-elect Trump to his farm, hoping for change in laws protecting pets from euthanasia.
A GoFundMe campaign for Longo's animal sanctuary has raised significant funds, highlighting widespread support for his cause.
