Trump could, I believe, declare the wall a national security and defense project, and fund it out of the defense discretionary fund.

There are funds for the Army Corp of Engineers in the Omnibus (saw a Twitter post of around $80 bil??) for “national security purposes.

Check out the 2 links below:

It would be great if this is possible to accomplish using the Omnibus budget money allocated to the Army Corp of Engineers to build the wall cutting out the private sector and Fed Gov interference.
