Vince McMahon Steps Down From WWE.  According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer, he had to step down, likely because there was a lot more dirt about to come out. A classic Wall Street announcement: Friday at 4:05 pm, right after the markets closed.  He had total control of the creative content, which had totally sucked.  We’ll see if it improves now.

What Happened When RWNJ’s Took Over A Cali County:

Anger over Covid-19 restrictions and vaccine mandates culminated in rowdy public meetings and vicious threats against officials. Both Donald Trump’s campaign to overturn the results of the 2020 election and the recall effort against California’s Democratic governor the following year found widespread support. And in February, voters threw their weight behind a recall campaign against one of the five county supervisors, effectively giving control of the local government to a majority backed by the area’s thriving far-right movement.
