Truman called for a new law, where any railroad strikers would be drafted into the Army. As he concluded his congressional address, he received a message that the strike had been settled on presidential terms; nevertheless, a few hours later, the House voted to draft the strikers. Taft killed the bill in the Senate.

WWE pro wreslter Kane, a man horribly disfigured due to burning his fanily and forced to wear a mask (only for it to be retconned into being pscyhologically scarred because he stopped wearing the mask and his face was fine), is running for mayor of Knoxville, TN.

Undertaker burned his family, not Kane.

And also wrestling-related but not so much "suddenly remembered" but rather "fresh on my mind":

The Saudis paid for WWE to hold a massive event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia during which they constantly referred to the "beautiful city of Jeddah" and to Saudi Arabia as a great and "progressive" country and aired a long commercial to the same effect. Also, no women were allowed to perform on the show and there was a bit of a stink because they showed a commercial for a future show on the video wall in which the women were not exactly dressed to Saudi standards. All this after WWE tried long and hard to get goodwill by promoting the women no longer as a sideshow, but as equally competitive to men and even made a big deal of having their women wrestle (albeit in full-body suits) in the UAE.

But hey, who cares, the check cleared.

Having been to Jeddah a lot growing up, it actually is a pretty nice looking city thats right on the Red Sea, which is even more beautiful of you like to scuba dive. But yeah everything else about that event was as bad/silly as you said. They even brought Iranian wrestlers (waving tge Iranian flag which pissed a lot of people off in Saudi) out to get beat up by Saudi rookies the WWE had just signed.

here's a recent favorite - a mexican student made this music video to support the leading candidate running for president, which quickly became a viral hit over its, well, everything about it. The lyrics are loving hilarious and I can't find an english translation, but it features lines such as "Your vote is like your virginity / don't give it away to those who defend impunity"
