They may just be saying it to threaten the Dems into compromise, but what a wonderful picture of the GOP it paints: we'll take $5 billion from health and education to build a useless fucking wall to make Trump look like he won.Senate Republicans are looking to pay for President Donald Trump’s border wall in part by putting about $5 billion less in the largest domestic spending bill, several people with knowledge of the process said.

According to several people familiar with the process, Senate Appropriations Chairman Richard C. Shelby, an Alabama Republican, wrote an allocation for the fiscal 2020 Labor-HHS-Education spending bill that is about $5 billion lower than it would have been to provide funding for the wall.
Roll Call
Tim Ryan is right about these assholes.
