 BREAKING: US BUDGET DEFICIT NEARS &#036;2 TRILLION&#33; 

The US federal budget deficit surged 12% to nearly &#036;2 TRILLION in FY2026, the highest since 2021, according to the CBO.

 Government spending: &#036;7.4 trillion  Revenue collected: &#036;5.4 trillion  Interest payments alone: Over &#036;1.1 trillion

The deficit is approaching 6% of GDP, while publicly held debt has crossed 100% of GDP.

The world’s largest economy is borrowing heavily, with rising Treasury yields threatening to make its debt burden even more expensive.

Yet, Trump continues to interfere in other nations’ affairs, influence global politics and impose tariffs on countries around the world while struggling with its own mounting debt.
