Senate Republicans were ok with funding TSA and other orgs within the DHS separately from ICE and the CBP. Trump refused. They have enough votes to override his veto but they're too cowardly to move forward.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-South Dakota, spoke to Trump on March 22, according to a person familiar with the conversation, to discuss a deal floated by White House staffers to potentially bring the funding crisis to an end before Congress is supposed to leave for a two-week Easter recess.

The president rejected that offer.
"He's got a view about, you know, connecting everything to the SAVE America Act," Thune told reporters on March 23. "My view is we should deal with the immediate crisis in front of us and figure out how to fund the government."

Sticking points remain around mask bans, warrants and use-of-force standards, USA TODAY has reported.
Well he can't do this legally but who is going to stop him if he can move the money around?
The Radical Left Democrats, and their "Leader," Cryin' Chuck Schumer, have made it very clear where they stand, and that is, ON THE SIDE OF CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS, AND NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. They are refusing to fund Immigration Enforcement unless the Republicans agree to their Open Border Policies, which will never, ever happen again. They almost destroyed our Country, allowing 25 Million People to enter from Prisons, Mental Institutions, and Insane Asylums, those that are Drug Dealers, and thousands of Murderers, many of whom killed more than one person. Because the Democrats have recklessly created a true National Crisis, I am using my authorities under the Law to protect our Great Country, as I always will do! Therefore, I am going to sign an Order instructing the Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, to immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation, and to quickly stop the Democrat Chaos at the Airports. It is not an easy thing to do, but I am going to do it! I want to thank our hardworking TSA Agents and also, ICE, for the incredible help they have given us at the Airports. I will not allow the Radical Left Democrats to hold our Country hostage any longer. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
