Peanut The Squirrel Isn’t The First Defenseless Animal Democrats Killed

Democrat-led New York State came under fire Saturday following the state killing of beloved social media sensation Peanut the Squirrel, The Daily Wire reported. And while Peanut’s death may be shocking, it shouldn’t be surprising — Democrats have a history of animal cruelty.

In 2022, Capitol Police euthanized a wild fox affectionately — though unoriginally — nicknamed “Capitol Fox.” The Capitol Fox quickly became a viral sensation, with reporters jostling for a sight of the vixen, and even asking Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) if he had seen the creature.

But after the Capitol Fox allegedly attacked Democrat Rep. Ami Bera (CA) and POLITICO reporter Ximena Bustillo, Capitol Police killed the fox along with her three children. After the alleged “incident,” Bera shared a photo of himself smiling and holding up a picture of the fox, and expressed his wishes that the fox “and its family are safely relocated and wishing it a happy and prosperous future.”

As of this writing, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has not commented on Peanut’s untimely demise. But she is not the first New York Democrat on whose watch harm has befallen famous creatures.

In 2014, then-New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio infamously dropped Charlotte the Groundhog at a Groundhog Day ceremony in the city. Asked by The Guardian about the incident years later, de Blasio attempted to pass the buck.

“It was idiocy. Why would you want an elected official to hold a groundhog?” de Blasio said. “I don’t know anything about holding groundhogs. So the whole thing is just insane.”

Nor are elected Democrats the only people on the Left with poor animal track records. Activist Sean King spent over $40,000 of donor funds to purchase a thoroughbred guard dog, the Washington Free Beacon reported, only to return the dog to the breeder.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
