Without irony...

USATODAY.com - Liquids not as risky as first feared:
"The total ban is no longer needed from a security point of view," Hawley said. "It doesn't make sense to have our (screeners) fishing out lip gloss and mascara."
...TSA chief Kip (Kip!) Hawley tells USA Today terrorist lipstick is not as scary as we thought it was. Well, OK, as we were supposed to think it was.
Testing by the FBI and at government labs showed that small containers of liquids "don't pose a real threat," Hawley said.
And never did. So it's not that the ban is "no longer" needed - it was never needed.

Raise your hand if you didn't know that already.
