Either Trump just flat out lies, has no clue what’s in bill or Mulvaney us an ignorant moron.

Pres. Trump speaks truth.

It was not a bill (House), but a suggestion, which funds
the border wall through the Army Engineers.
Covfefe.

That is not correct. No new border wall construction can occur under the omnibus, which is now law.

Jordan also blasted the bill's funding for Planned Parenthood and its failure to fund President Trump 's proposed wall along the U.S. southern border. The omnibus provides more than $1 billion for border security and new surveillance technology, but prevents the money from being used for new construction of Trump's wall. "The one thing we don't fund is the one issue we all campaigned on — a border security wall — and that is not in the legislation," he said. "So it can't get any worse than this bill."

The Army Corps of Engineers fall under DoD, and the Dod is prohibited, by law, in this legislation of construction any new border wall. All they can do is repair existing fencing.

It's in the bill. If Trump tried to go around the very law he just signed, it is an impeachable offense (for real).
