The Senate on Tuesday voted to cut off the U.S. military campaign against Iran, handing a fresh loss to President Donald Trump despite his attempts to convince lawmakers and the public that a deal to end the war is at hand.

Four Republicans broke ranks to help approve a resolution to block further military action unless it is green-lighted by Congress.

The war powers measure is largely symbolic — the resolution cleared Tuesday doesn’t go to the president to sign or veto. But the bipartisan 50-48 vote is a damaging milestone for the Trump administration: Both the Senate and House have now weighed in against the Middle East conflict that’s stretched on for more than 100 days. The same measure passed the House in early June after months of close calls.

Concerns are mounting on Capitol Hill and among immigration advocates that the Trump administration is quietly gutting a landmark program allowing unauthorized immigrants who came to the U.S. as children to stay, work and study legally in the United States.

A major immigrant rights advocacy group recently documented in a study that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is taking months longer on average to renew legal protections for recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, often referred to as “Dreamers.”

Those delays are causing some supporters of the program on Capitol Hill to worry the Trump administration is weaponizing bureaucracy to undermine DACA. In floor speeches and on social media last week, prominent Democrats accused the Trump administration of targeting DACA recipients unfairly as part of the White House’s immigration crackdown.

“I can’t see how it’s not intentional,” Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), one of the main legislative champions for the DACA program, said in a brief interview. “In previous years, we’d get maybe a dozen cases” in which DACA recipients were left waiting for long stretches of time for their work permits to be approved. Now, Padilla notes, “it’s in the hundreds.”

On the other side of the aisle, Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) said she had “serious concerns” about the slowdown in processing.

Trump handed Elon Musk more than 700 acres of a protected Texas wildlife refuge, and the federal agency that gave it away is calling the move conservation. The land sits inside the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge, home to endangered animals and sacred to the Indigenous people who have lived alongside it for generations, and now it is being cleared for the world’s first trillionaire to launch more rockets.

The deal runs through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which approved a land swap that moves roughly 712 acres of the wildlife refuge into SpaceX’s hands. In exchange, SpaceX hands the government about 683 acres it owns elsewhere in Cameron County, some of it sitting as far as 20 miles from the refuge. On paper it is a trade. In practice the public is giving up irreplaceable protected coastline so a private rocket company can expand a launch site it already built on top of wetlands. The acreage has been reported as high as 775 in some documents, but the number everyone agrees on is more than 700.

What lives on that land is the whole point. The wildlife refuge shelters two endangered wild cats, the ocelot and the jaguarundi, along with the aplomado falcon, sea turtles, and migratory birds that move through one of the last intact wildlife corridors on the Gulf Coast. The area is also a designated National Historic Landmark, and it is sacred ground to the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas, whose tribal chair has said the government is allowing the destruction of their lands and ecosystems in pursuit of space ventures. This is not empty scrubland. It is one of the most ecologically and culturally loaded stretches of coast in the country.

The timing makes it worse. Elon Musk just became the first trillionaire in human history, riding the largest public offering the stock market has ever seen for SpaceX. Days later, the same man is being handed hundreds of acres of a public wildlife refuge at no real cost to him. A government that tells working families there is never enough money for housing or healthcare found 700 acres of protected habitat to give a man who could buy the entire state several times over. The optics are not subtle, and neither is the transfer.

The idea was meant to supercharge President Trump’s mass deportation plan.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement would purchase more than a dozen empty warehouses across the United States to massively expand its capacity to detain people deemed to be in the country illegally, which in turn would spike deportations. A year into Mr. Trump’s term, it had bought 11 facilities at a cost of $1 billion.

But in a major turnabout, the agency is planning to offload seven warehouses purchased for more than $700 million by either giving them to other federal agencies or selling them outright, according to documents obtained by The New York Times.

The decision to sharply scale back the warehouse plan is a rejection of a signature initiative under the previous homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, who pushed the boundaries of what the government can do to aggressively round up potential deportees. The new secretary, Markwayne Mullin, who had privately expressed skepticism about the plan, has said publicly that he wants the agency to be quieter about how it carries out immigration enforcement.

“From Day 1, D.H.S. has remained singularly focused on removing the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens from the United States and is always evaluating the best methods to do so,” the Homeland Security Department said in a statement for this article. “These heinous criminals, once arrested, should be removed at lightning speed, not housed on American soil at the taxpayer’s expense. D.H.S. is moving swiftly to utilize EXISTING detention space with our state and county partners.”
