Today’s Headlines: The US Air Force is refusing to clean up drinking water it contaminated with toxic "forever chemicals" near its bases in Tucson, Arizona, citing the Supreme Court's recent overturning of the Chevron deference doctrine, which limits the EPA's authority to enforce such cleanups. This comes after the EPA ordered the Air Force and National Guard to address the issue in May. Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar won her primary in Minnesota, ultra-MAGA Eric Hovde secured the GOP Senate nomination in Wisconsin, and Wisconsin voters rejected two Republican ballot measures. Inflation numbers show a 2.9% rise in the core Consumer Price Index, the lowest since 2021. Hurricane Ernesto, now a Category 1 storm, has left nearly half of Puerto Rico without power, and Ford and Mazda have issued a recall warning due to dangerous airbag inflators in certain older models.
