The Latest: Trump delays Strait of Hormuz deadline as Wall Street has biggest loss of war

AP News U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday he will delay a threatened strike on Iran’s energy infrastructure and extend his deadline for Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz until April 6, saying talks to end the war are “going very well.”

The Latest: Almost 500 TSA officers have quit during the shutdown

AP News The latest proposal, made by Republican senators, would fund most of DHS but not the immigration enforcement and removal operations. The offer added some new restraints on immigration officers, including the use of body cameras, but excluded Democrat demands such as requirements that federal agents wear identification and refrain from conducting raids around schools, churches or other sensitive places. Senate Majority Leader John Thune says Democrats have received the “last and final” offer from Republicans.

The Transportation Security Agency has warned that it may have to...
