First paragraph of the FDA announcement answers all your questions, chucklehead:

"Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine has been known as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, and will now be marketed as Comirnaty (koe-mir’-na-tee), for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older. The vaccine also continues to be available under emergency use authorization (EUA), including for individuals 12 through 15 years of age and for the administration of a third dose in certain immunocompromised individuals."

The existing vaccine was approved, and had a marketing name change. It continues under an EUA for younger people.

Why is this Malone person more trustworthy than the CDC+FDA?

If the existing vaccine was approved, why is it still under emergency use authorization (EUA)?

It's still under ULA for 12-15 year olds and for booster shots.

Then again what does ULA even mean when in my county 84% of 12-15 years olds are already vaccinated.

According to both the FDA News Release and the letter, it's under emergency use authorization for all ages, not only for 12-year olds and for booster shots.
