#deficit

"Treasury’s borrowing showed no signs of slowing as the U.S. headed deeper into fiscal year 2026, with the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reporting that another $1 trillion was added to the federal #deficit in the first five months of the year.
"The monthly budget review from the CBO, updated to February 2026 and released yesterday, showed that the government is estimated to have borrowed $308 billion last month alone." Fortune https://finance.yahoo.com/news/cannot-sustainable-u-borrowed-50-145204511.html
