    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    For two decades, Shane Murnan worked as an educator by day and a drag queen on nights and weekends at clubs in Oklahoma City.

    Two days later, on Aug. 31, the far-right social media account Libs of TikTok posted about Murnan, and Ryan Walters, the incendiary state superintendent, called for him to be fired.

    While Western Heights Superintendent Brayden Savage initially backed Murnan, he said, she told him last month that if he didn’t resign, the district would terminate him because of the cost of increased security.

    Reacting to earlier reports about Murnan’s exit, Walters posted a video on Feb. 2 calling his resignation “a big win for Oklahoma schools.” He promised that people who hired him “will be held accountable.”

    Before Western Heights hired him as a principal, Murnan passed a background check, and the district said it was aware of his past court cases.

    However, Savage told the employees that Murnan wouldn’t return to the elementary school campus because she and the district were still receiving hate mail and threats.
