I can't give you details about how it all works because I'm not an expert. I'm pretty confident the president can't override funding thar congress has allocated though. There are ways they can spend money, but they can't get rid of already allocated funding.

If congress says we're giving arms to Israel, there's not much the president can do. They can probably delay it some, depending on how it was written, but it wouldn't be legal to stop it.
