Deal? Or No Deal?

It looks like congressional negotiators may have come up with a deal acceptable to all sides.  Politico reports that such a deal was reached last night.  Details are still fuzzy, but we'll see what happens.
The tentative deal includes $1.375 billion for physical barriers — a type of fencing that resembles the “steel slats” that Trump has specifically called for, according to a congressional aide briefed on the talks. It includes a total of 55 miles, which is just 9 miles shy of Trump’s last budget request.
It's a start, I guess.
