No. You’re not getting away with that. The President signs every spending bill. If the President had used his recently recovered veto pen to take a stand for fiscally prudent government, and had those vetos overridden by Congress, then you’d have a case. But, alas, he didn’t, so you don’t get to pin this mess solely on Congress.
