ABC News Was Forced to Retract Some Grade-A Fake News About Israel's Gaza Offensive
Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet 

The liberal media can’t get Israel right. It was always bad but had a frequency like seasonal allergies, and the errors were never this horrendous. At least the stories were real from previous trip-ups. The stabbing intifada and the numerous terror attacks against innocent Israelis at bus stations did occur, though the headlines would sanitize who was committing the attacks. In this case, ABC News was forced to retract some grade-A fake news about pamphlets that were dropped before a minor ground force operation in Gaza, which has resumed being bombed by the IDF after Hamas kept dithering on hostage releases [emphasis mine]:

"Editor's Note: An earlier version of this article said that the IDF had dropped leaflets with disturbing messaging. ABC News has not been able to confirm the authenticity of these leaflets. The IDF denies dropping these leaflets. 

LONDON -- The Israel Defense Forces says that it is focusing ground operations in the center of the Gaza Strip after attacks since the ceasefire ended on Tuesday night have left nearly 500 Gazans dead -- primarily women and children -- according to a spokesperson for Gaza's civil defense team.

Donald Trump Signs Executive Order to Dismantle the Department of Education
Rebecca Downs / Townhall Tipsheet 

President Donald Trump signed a major executive order on Thursday to "begin eliminating" the Department of Education, "once and for all." HThe signing came as the president gave remarks on education for this "historic event." 

Such a move was previewed on Wednesday evening, though Trump also signaled he would return the issue of education back to the states before officially taking office for his second term, when he announced he would be selecting Linda McMahon as his secretary of education, who has since been confirmed. It was a goal that the president again reaffirmed on Thursday. Trump introduced McMahon during his remarks as the woman he hopes will be the last secretary in such a position. Republican governors from several states were also in attendance for the event as "people very interested in education," as was Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R-TX), members of Congress, and state attorneys general. 

Trump acknowledged it "sounds strange," but he also made clear he's heard from Democrats and Republicans that "it's about time." Regardless, Trump emphasized later in his remarks that it's the right thing to do, "as the cost will probably be half and the education will be many, many times better."
