Holiday Weekend Headaches & LGBTQ+ Allyship in Corporate America 6/29/23

As July 4th weekend kicks off, air travelers are faced with flight delays and cancellations across the country. CNBC’s Phil LeBeau reports on flight disruptions from the Denver airport during the busiest travel week since before the pandemic. Former FAA Acting Administrator Billy Nolen discusses the issues leading to so many disruptions, including staffing, weather, and visibility. Rounding out Pride Month, GLAAD President Sarah Kate Ellis discusses LGBTQ+ allyship among American companies, and suggests that suffering sales at Bud Light and Target may track back to the LGBTQ community withholding their spending power, taking a stand against fairweather allies. Plus, Yankee Domingo German has pitched a perfect game, Bidenomics is the opposite of Reaganomics, and US banks have passed their stress tests.
