Can you point to which appropriation in the $80B increase is earmarked for something that could be used for the wall?

Isn't there evidence that Obama was able to move funds in other directions? (and signed almost precisely the same letter that the President did which may authorize this legally).
Today, a federal judge sided with the House of Representatives in a major lawsuit challenging executive branch overreach, ruling that the Obama administration has been making illegal payments to health insurance companies participating in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) exchanges.
The issue raised by the House of Representatives lawsuit is that the executive branch cannot spend money without a congressional appropriation since Article I of the Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse. Today, Judge Collyer agreed, writing “Paying out [cost-sharing subsidies] without an appropriation violates the Constitution. Congress is the only source for such an appropriation, and no public money can be spent without one.”

Because of the $700 & $716 Billion Dollars gotten to rebuild our Military, many jobs are created and our Military is again rich. Building a great Border Wall, with drugs (poison) and enemy combatants pouring into our Country, is all about National Defense. Build WALL through M!

A 'Castle' is literally defined by large, strong, walls...designed and built by a kingdom's leader to keep invaders out.
"CASTLE" could very well be a code word for 'THE WALL'...
RED CASTLE = Wall NOT FUNDED
GREEN CASTLE = Wall FUNDED
The US Army Corps of Engineers symbolism also plays well into the word's use here,...contributing double meaning, indicating the means by which it may ultimately be constructed.

My research on who Ann Boleyn is, assuming you mean King Henry VIII's second wife, rather than another, living, one:
Ann Boleyn geneaology:
daughter of - Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, 1477-1539 (62),
son of - Sir William Boleyn, High Sherriffs of Kent, Suffolk and Norfolk 1451-1505 (54),
son of - Sir Geoffrey Boleyn, II, Lord Mayor of london 1406-1463 (see City of London thread),
son of - Sir Geoffrey Boleyn I, 1380-1440 (60),
son of - Thomas Boleyn, 1350-1411 (61),
son of - John Boleyne, 1300-1349 (49),
son of - Nicholas Boleyne, 1260-? (?),
son of - John 1 Boleyne, 1195:1255-?
son of - Simone de Boleyne,
son of - William de Boleyne,
son of - Faramus de Boleyne, b.1069,
son of - Godfrey de Boulogne, b. 1060-1100 (40),
son of - Eustace II, Count of Boulogne, 1020-1087 (67), in Bayeaux Tapestry!,
son of - Eustace I, Count of Boulogne, 989-1049 (60), founder of House of Boulogne,
son of - Baldwin II, Count of Boulogne, 976-1033, (57),
son of - Arnulf III, Count of Boulogne, 950-990 (40),
son of - Arnulf II Count of Boulogne, 924-972 (48),
son of - Adelolf Count of Boulogne, 891-933 (42),
son of - Baldwin II "The Bald", Count of Flanders, Artois, Boulogne, and Temois KING OF JERUSALEM, 863-918 (55),
son of - Baldwin I, Count of Flanders, 835-879 (44),
Note that in Ann Boleyns era life expectancy in UK was 34, so above 50% to 80% greater than the norm! (Life expectancy over time map)
Family shield from generation after King of Jerusalm (918) was a gold shield with 3 red circles (Rothschild?):
Family shield from 1320s through to Ann Boleyn:
with eception of 2 generations...where Family shield was:
Some similarities with Rothschild Coat of Arms make up!
