“While ‘pigs shouldn’t trust the butcher’ is a trope, children’s author Avi’s book ‘Poppy’ comes to mind upon seeing tweets from MAGA-supporting federal workers who say they fervently appreciate the work that Elon Musk and DOGE are doing to rid the government of ‘waste’ but request that they and their uncle Frank be spared from Musk’s cuts. The titular mouse Poppy lives under the tyrannical rule of an owl who claims he’s ‘protecting’ Poppy’s family but kills members of that family as his price. Poppy ultimately realizes the truth that her family was blind to. One can only hope that half our electorate will follow the lead of a little brown mouse from a children’s book.”-AB
