The FAA's decision is not related to anything else in the news, nope, not at all.

I'm guessing you're talking about the election result? That was my first thought as well. However, here's what the author had to say:
...it seems unlikely that this document—which has been in the works for more than a year—was unduly influenced by Trump's election. It was prepared by an FAA still under the Biden administration. Rather, the tone of the environmental assessment signals that SpaceX was probably already on a path to complying with federal regulations.
