The House passed a bill to reopen most of the Department of Homeland Security on Thursday, ending the 76-day shutdown that became the longest agency shutdown in U.S. history. The measure, which funds DHS minus Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, passed by voice vote.

Speaker Mike Johnson had previously called the Senate proposal 'a joke' before reversing course on April 1.
The latest attack on US President Donald Trump has once again thrust his country's long history of political violence into the spotlight.
Environmental groups have sued the Trump administration over its approval of BP's $5bn Kaskida oil drilling project in the Gulf of Mexico, filed exactly 16 years after the Deepwater Horizon disaster. The project will drill 6,000ft underwater plus miles into the seabed to extract 80,000 barrels daily from a 10bn-barrel deposit, starting in 2029. The lawsuit alleges BP failed to provide required safety information and cannot contain a potential 4.5m-barrel spill.
