The omnibus bill he just signed limits him to 92 mi. of border fence repair. No new fence can be built without congressional action, which will never happen. It’s over.

Okay. You’re saying the exact opposite of what some other poster said a page or so ago. He explained that the funding bill could only say what money was earmarked for and COULDN’T say what you COULDN’T use money for - but you’re saying the bill says no new fence can be built.

So which is it? I’m back to being confused.

with the 1.6B. However, there is an amendment that was passed by the House that allows him to appropriate defense spending however he wants. LOL!
