Throughout the novel Squealer is highly skilled at making speeches to the animals. He is also one of the leaders of the farm.
It is also possible that Squealer represents the Soviet Newspaper of Stalin's Era "Pravda". This paper was Stalin's key to propaganda in the communist times, and was very powerful to proletarians of the time (proletarians being Boxer, the horse)
Squealer's argumentsSquealer takes the central role in making announcements to the animals, as Napoleon appears less and less often as the book progresses. Near the start of the book, it is said that he was very convincing and could turn "black into white". This is foreshadowing several euphemisms he uses to maintain the control of the barn through difficult times. He is Napoleon's (Stalin's) key to propaganda for the farm (Soviet Union).

Mannnn now I need to read Animal Farm for the 20th time :/
