Late last night a federal judge in Hawaii issued an Order scaling back the Trump administration’s implementation of the Travel Order.
The judge disagreed with the Trump administration as to who would be considered a “close familial relationship” under the Supreme Court’s ruling. The Hawaii judge ruled that “grandparents, grandchildren, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins” would fall under that category, and thus be excluded from Travel Order bar to entry.
The ACLU celebrated early this morning with a *most unfortunate* tweet:
Oops. They linked the wrong AP report.
The tweet was deleted but lives on in the Internet archives. (h/t Ashley Rae on Twitter)
When someone called it to their attention, the ACLU noted the mistake.
Apologies! Quoted wrong tweet! https://t.co/D5TZP57NzH

Freudian slip, anyone?
More like a Kinsley gaffe.
Does a Freudian slip come with a matching Freudian bra and would he shower with the female soldiers?
The ACLU managed to put the whole muslim admission issue into context by mistake.
Hawaii has an army?
