Amber Glenn Ends Olympic Music Dispute as FAA Halts El Paso Flights
The Trump administration is moving to revoke the EPA's 2009 endangerment finding this week, a pivotal scientific pillar that has supported federal climate regulations for nearly two decades. Administrator Lee Zeldin indicated the shift aims to prevent economic damage, though the move faces immediate legal challenges from environmental groups and Democratic states. Meanwhile, the FAA has grounded flights in El Paso and southern New Mexico for ten days, citing unspecified security concerns amid heightened border enforcement activity. In Milan, Olympic gold medalist Amber Glenn successfully resolved a music copyright dispute with artist Seb McKinnon, highlighting the complexities of athlete licensing in the digital age. These developments occur as the U.S. also weighs the seizure of Iranian oil tankers to escalate international pressure, raising concerns about potential retaliation in the Strait of Hormuz and further volatility in global energy markets.
