Poland said Russian drones were shot down in its airspace during an attack on Ukraine.

Plenty of ink has been spilled on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the sweeping piece of budget reconciliation legislation that cuts taxes, creates “Trump accounts” for newborns, and grants an unprecedented new surge of funding in support of mass deportation and border security efforts. But one of the law’s biggest impacts may be its unfurling of a longstanding gun law that firearms enthusiasts and Second Amendment advocates have long had in their sights. The government has imposed a tax on suppressors, tools that are used to dampen the sound of a gunshot, ever since 1934, when the National Firearms Act was passed. Thanks to the Big Beautiful Bill, that tax will be dropped in January, and its elimination could tee up massive victories for Second Amendment supporters. The Daily Wire team had the chance to learn from firearms experts and gun rights advocates during a day at the range, firing both suppressed and unsuppressed AR-15s. Their utility became clear as the day went on, and as thousands of rounds were fired. “Millions of Americans use them to protect their hearing,” Knox Williams, Executive Director of the American Suppressor Association, said of suppressors. “Gunshots are loud to the point that when you don’t have hearing protection, any exposure to an unsuppressed gunshot can and will lead to permanent and irreversible hearing damage … if you lose it, there is no coming back.” Suppressors, often referred to colloquially as silencers, work in the same way as a muffler on a car — with a tube that traps, cools, and dissipates the hot gas that comes out of a barrel after a round is fired. In fact, the suppressor and the muffler were developed by the same American inventor in the early 1900s. Both inventions prevent the rapid contact of the hot gas with the cooler surrounding atmosphere, which is one of the main causes of the noise that is generated when a gun is fired. Suppressors reduce the noise of a gunshot by anywhere from 20 to 35 decibels, making their effect roughly equivalent to earplugs and earmuffs in their ability to protect one’s hearing. Americans’ impression of suppressors comes primarily from James Bond films and video games, where the devices are used to sneakily assassinate a target in a crowded setting, allowing the shooter to escape undetected. The reality, as was apparent after a day at the range, is that even a suppressed firearm is still loud enough to cause hearing damage if used without hearing protection, and far too noisy to allow one to pull off a Bond-style operation, especially when used indoors. Instead, a silencer is a valuable tool to protect your hearing, and it works best when used in conjunction with earplugs or earmuffs. The removal of the tax on suppressors, Williams says, is a victory that could build momentum in the service of a broader goal. “The primary thing that we want is to remove these things from the National Firearms Act entirely. In the House version of the Big Beautiful Bill, that actually passed. It was full removal of suppressors from the National Firearms Act, which meant no tax and no registration requirement,” the American Suppressor Association Executive Director explained. That version of the bill did not pass in the Senate, but the removal of the tax is an initial victory for Second Amendment advocates, and one that could beget bigger wins. Williams explained that the tax wasn’t just an added financial burden to those looking to buy suppressors, but also created a registry of Americans who paid the tax, in effect resulting in a federal registry of Americans owning suppressors. The removal of the tax, Williams says, has “set us up for being able to challenge the constitutionality of these items in the National Firearms Act in court.” A new lawsuit from the American Suppressor Association, the National Rifle Association, and other pro-Second Amendment organizations aims to do just that. The suit contends that the registry is no longer Constitutional, given that the tax that justified its existence is being eliminated. “The National Firearms Act has been a weight around the neck of law-abiding gun owners for nearly a century,” Williams charged. “Our lawsuit challenges the NFA as an unconstitutional registry of now untaxed firearms. Common sense and the law are on our side, and we look forward to fighting on behalf of all Americans in Federal Court.”

Polish officials said Wednesday its forces had shot down a “huge number” of Russian drones overnight that violated the country’s airspace during an attack on Ukraine. Polish fighter jets, backed by NATO aircraft from Italy, the Netherlands, and Germany, intercepted and destroyed the drones, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said. He added that allies stood in solidarity with Poland and denounced Russia’s “reckless behavior.” “Last night the Polish airspace was violated by a huge number of Russian drones. Those drones that posed a direct threat were shot down,” Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on X. “I am in constant communication with the Secretary General of NATO and our allies.” He said 19 drones had been in Polish airspace, later telling Parliament that Russia had gone too far.  “I have no reason to claim we’re on the brink of war, but a line has been crossed, and it’s incomparably more dangerous than before,” Tusk said, according to Reuters. “This situation brings us the closest we have been to open conflict since World War II.” The Kremlin refused to comment on the situation. “This is not for us to do so,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, according to the BBC. “It’s a matter for the [Russian] defence ministry.” Russia’s Defense Ministry said it did not target Poland, and General Pavel Muraveiko, the Russian-aligned commander of Belarus’s armed forces, claimed that the drones “lost their course as a result of electronic warfare.” Several European leaders condemned the drone incursion.  “This was an extremely reckless move by Russia and only serves to remind us of President Putin’s blatant disregard for peace, and the constant bombardment innocent Ukrainians face every day,” said U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer.  “Hungary stands in full solidarity with Poland following the recent drone incident. The violation of Poland’s territorial integrity is unacceptable,” Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán wrote on X. “The incident proves that our policy of calling for peace in the Russia-Ukraine war is reasonable and rational. Living in the shadow of a war is fraught with risks and dangers. It’s time to make it stop! To this end, we support the efforts of President [Donald Trump] aimed at achieving peace.” President Donald Trump has pushed for an end to the Ukraine-Russia war, but the fighting between the two countries has continued. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky have not yet met to discuss a possible end to the conflict.

A groom was caught on camera single-handedly saving his wedding day… quite literally! As anyone who has gotten married will tell you, not many weddings can go off without a hitch. Still, when this bride and groom prepared for their big day, they likely never imagined having to deal with insects. At least not like this, anyway! At first, the ceremony went smoothly. The couple held hands as they looked into each other’s eyes, ready to say their vows. But right when it was the bride’s turn to speak, an unwanted guest secretly made its way down the back of her dress. Although the bride tried to go on like normal, she quickly realized something was wrong. Because the back of her dress is partially transparent, it didn’t take long to realize… a hornet had gotten inside! Luckily, the groom was more than ready to step up… @dailymail She chose the right guy #wedding ♬ original sound – Daily Mail Brave Groom Saves the Wedding Day in an Unexpected Way While the bride did her best to remain calm, her bridesmaid attempted to get the hornet out of the dress. Just when it seemed like this would be tricky, the groom swooped in to save the day. Best of all, he made it look effortless! All he had to do was grab the hornet with his bare hands and voilà! His bride was no longer in danger of the pesky hornet. A single hornet can sting someone once or multiple times. Typically, a sting will only lead to a mild reaction like itching, pain, and a raised reddish area. These symptoms still aren’t idea for a bride. But in a worst-case scenario, a sting can lead to a life-threatening allergic reaction. Needless to say, folks are loving this brave groom! “I can only dream of finding a man who will grab a HORNET with his BARE HANDS for me,” someone shared in the comments. Others added, “She was so chill about it, I would be in tears, running and screaming” and “He passed the final test.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!
