A member of the House of Lords has called on the British government to nominate U.S. President Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to prevent a war between India and Pakistan. “India and Pakistan were at the brink – once again – but like never before. The nuclear-armed neighbours had just participated in one of the most prolific aerial combat events of recent time, involving over 125 fighter jets. Multiple missiles had been launched deep inside each other’s territory. Civilian casualties were mounting. Critical assets were being destroyed. Temperatures were very high,” he wrote in a statement seen by Breitbart London. “Without President Trump’s direct efforts, a ceasefire would not have been possible. The consequences of further escalation could have been devastating for the region and the world. Whatever one’s political views, the President has been Peacemaker-In-Chief during this conflict.” The far-left leadership of the Episcopal Church announced Monday that it is severing its nearly 40-year partnership with the U.S. government to resettle refugees — all because the Trump administration dared to classify white South African Afrikaners as refugees in need of protection. The same Episcopal Church that prided itself on aiding persecuted people from war-torn regions is now walking away from its commitments simply because the next wave of refugees are white Christian farmers — victims of violent racial targeting in post-apartheid South Africa. The church claims resettling these families would violate their ‘moral line,’ according to Religion News. In the twisted moral calculus of today’s Episcopal Church, the white Afrikaner families don’t deserve compassion. They’re the wrong color. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/05/episcopal-church-ends-refugee-partnership-u-s-government/ There have been multiple air traffic control communication and radar malfunctions in recent days, prompting renewed concern about risks in America's skies and on its runways. The Federal Aviation Administration acknowledged in a series of statements that there was a telecommunications issue Friday at Philadelphia TRACON Area C, the air traffic control tower and radar facility at Philadelphia International Airport that guides aircraft into and out of Newark Liberty International Airport airspace. Although the issue apparently lasted only 90 seconds, the FAA slowed aircraft in and out of Newark while ensuring that "redundancies were working as designed." The ground stop reportedly lasted around 45 minutes, and, according to the flight tracking site FlightAware, roughly 280 flights were delayed and 87 canceled at Newark as of late Sunday. The New York Times reported that air traffic controllers working the airspace around the Newark airport lost communications with planes for nearly 30 seconds. While 10 people reportedly should have been on duty to help coordinate traffic in the Newark airspace at the time, only four controllers were at their posts. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy minced no words following the late April 28 incident, stating, "The system that we're using in air traffic control is incredibly old. This system is 25, 30 years old. We use floppy discs. We use copper wires. The system that we're using is not effective to control the traffic that we have in the airspace today." Burguiere also took a look at a November 2023 FAA report that indicated the agency is not only using floppy discs but employing equipment so old that there are no replacement parts available. ...Many of these systems are pre-digital, and many parts are unavailable because the manufacturers no longer exist or no longer support these systems." Burguiere noted in his BlazeTV documentary that the FAA was not just way behind on critical technological upgrades but dangerously understaffed at critical hubs nationwide — stressing that "with 77% of key facilities below the FAA's own staffing threshold" as of December, "our skies are becoming a ticking time bomb." Duffy told NBC News Monday, "I'm concerned about the whole airspace." "What you see in Newark is going to happen in other places across the country," continued the transportation secretary. "It has to be fixed." EPA Chief Lee Zeldin this week announced his agency is getting rid of the ‘start/stop’ technology where your car dies at every red light. “Start/stop technology: where your car dies at every red light so companies get a climate participation trophy. EPA approved it, and everyone hates it, so we’re fixing it,” Lee Zeldin said. Excerpt from Fox Business: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is targeting climate technology that automatically turns off a car’s engine when it is stopped at red lights to save fuel, a feature agency administrator Lee Zeldin said every driver “hates.” Advocates for the technology support it as a climate-friendly initiative, while critics find it annoying and question whether it can wear down the car’s battery or engine more quickly. Cars generally have a button allowing drivers to disable the feature. The EPA does not require stop-start technology, but automakers that adopt it are given extra fuel economy credits. The technology was included in 65% of vehicles in 2023.... https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/05/epa-chief-lee-zeldin-get-rid-car-feature/ We recently bought a 2024 Subaru that has this "feature." It is incredibly annoying. After every red light, when the light turns green, the car jumps forward in a jerky motion. We had to find out how to turn it off but you can't have it disabled permanently. Every time you drive, you have to remember to hit that button. @patrician I've got this feature on my car (2018 Ford Fusion) and I hate it! The diminutive amount of money it will save me on gasoline is far outweighed by the cost of a new starter. Really stupid design. Maybe if the default setter was "off" instead of "on" it wouldn't be so annoying. DEI engineering. You would think that it would take more gas and make more exhaust to start it up again than to let it idle and keep driving. Is it timed? Does it turn off at stop signs? Sounds like a safety hazard if you have to maneuver to avoid an accident. I don't think it's timed. When you stop at a light, your car turns off. Whenever you hit the gas pedal, it starts up again, but as I said, it kind of jerks into motion. I don't think it's a safety hazard because if you had to maneuver somewhere, you would just press the accelerator and go where you needed to go. About stop signs, I don't know if it turns the car off then and I hope never to find out because we will try to keep that feature always set to "off." Our friends have a BMW and they say they can keep it permanently off on their car without pressing the button every time they drive.
