This Swine Life: Hog Named Six Seven Pardoned by Miami-Dade Mayor.

While perhaps not at the equivalent scale as pardoning Thanksgiving turkeys, but the Miami-Dade County mayor conducted a Donald Trump moment this week by ceremoniously saving the life of a swine named Six Seven.

Daniella Levine Cava performed the seasonal stunt at the Cuban-themed Latin Cafe 2000 in the core of Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood.

“This animal is guiltless. She is worthy of this pardon. No offenses are on her docket,” Levine Cava said in a speech with clear references to the vast quantity of executive clemencies issued since the onset of a current administration.

“Unless you count eating 6 or 7 apples per day,” the mayor added. “May this pig enjoy a long and happy life without fear.”

This ceremony, either celebrating or rejecting the area's customary feast of eating roast pork during the holidays, was established to mirror the annual turkey pardoning at the White House.

The swine, donated by a local firefighter, was named for the current slang trend of young people exclaiming “six-seven” – originating from a hip-hop line – often without clear purpose. The craze became so pervasive that a major dictionary recently declared “6-7” its annual vocabulary selection.

A Peaceful Retirement

Six Seven the pig is now scheduled to spend its days at a rural sanctuary “away from grills and cookware”, according to the ceremony's official statement.

“The annual pig pardon has become one of our favorite ways to open the end-of-year celebrations,” said the event host, in a decidedly positive message.

“It represents the essence of Miami: happy, varied, and grounded in customs that unite the community. Every time, we are proud to celebrate tradition and kindness in a way only Miami can.”

Guests enjoyed a vegetarian menu of spinach fritters and strong coffee as they toasted the swine's new lease on life.
