Jim Miller calls for justice for Peanut the Squirrel after UFC victory

UFC fighter Jim Miller called for "justice for Peanut the Squirrel" after his victory at UFC 309 on November 16, 2024. He expressed hope that the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) would improve state governance. Peanut, a popular squirrel with over 500,000 Instagram followers, was euthanized by New York State officials after being seized from his owner due to complaints about illegal wildlife keeping. The incident has sparked public outrage. Miller's comments came during an interview with Joe Rogan, where he linked the situation to broader issues of resource allocation. The DOGE initiative, led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to address government inefficiencies through executive action.
