House adjourns, ensuring a government shutdown
ASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives adjourned just before 7 p.m. on Friday night (0000 GMT on Saturday), leaving the Capitol before approving government funding and thereby ensuring a government shutdown.

The House is set to return from recess at noon on Saturday.

Congress is neither recessed or adjourned. If it were truly in recess, the President could make recess appointments. If adjourned, then business is done until the new Congress convenes. Of course, newspapers are very sloppy in their language, on purpose, it seems.
