Once upon a time, it was an absolute political and economical scandal when the US government ran up an annual deficit of a trillion dollars. [1]
Under Trump's tax cuts for the rich and bloated spending for his pet projects and well-connected contractors, the USA just ran up a $432 billion deficit ... in July. In one month. At that rate, you're looking at an annual deficit in the five trillion dollar range.
The accumulated debt is "only" 40 trillion or so, for what that's worth.
The USA will *never* repay this debt. It's not possible. And in the current political system, they will not get their budget deficits under control - no chance, at all.
How do they keep the money train going, you ask? It's because other countries park their money in US Treasury bonds and other US-denominated holdings. There is a built-in demand for US currency that doesn't depend on financial performance of the USA at all. This demand has existed ever since the end of the Bretton Woods system.
And it's primarily because of oil.
If you ignore the the recent Russian sanctioned oil sales (via their shadow fleet of tankers) to India and some other countries, essentially all oil is traded in US dollars.

[1] Before that, it was a similar scandal when the accumulated debt of the USA reached a trillion dollars.

3 A trillion dollars was cut from federal funding for non-profit NPR and PBS broadcasting. A majority of these funds were distributed to rural stations and local broadcasting, where the only source or radio broadcast is significantly funded with federal support. It is predicted a number of local broadcasting companies will go out of business, especially in rural areas. The cuts are promoted as cutting waste of federal dollars.
Yet Trump and the GOP has long alleged any non-profit companies receiving federal money are nests of radical left-wing propaganda. Trump has promised for years to take revenge on media not complicit in furthering his goals and right wing policy. What do you think more likely: these funding cuts are revenge or cutting waste? 3/3

What’s in Trump’s 2026 budget proposal? – USAFacts
What’s in Trump’s 2026 budget proposal?The One Big Beautiful Bill Act was a large piece of legislation that made several budgetary changes. Some of its provisions are permanent; other provisions won’t go into effect until later next year. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has released its proposed budget for discretionary spending in fiscal year 2026, which begins on October 1. Here’s a look at the proposed changes:
The proposed 2026 budget would keep base discretionary spending at the same level as 2025, but shifts billions out of some departments and into others. It would move $113.3 billion to the DOD, meaning the department would have 59.6% of all base discretionary spending.
The Department of Homeland Security budget would have the largest percentage increase (64.9%) to support immigration enforcement and other administration policies. Funding for FEMA, TSA, and cybersecurity, among other programs, would be reduced.
The State Department and international aid programs would be cut by 83.7%, including reductions in international disaster assistance and global health efforts.
The administration also proposes a 43.6% decrease in program funding for the Department of Housing and Urban Development, reducing it from $77.0 billion to $43.5 billion. This includes a $26.7 billion cut in federal rental assistance programs.
The Education Department’s discretionary budget would drop 15.3%, from $78.7 billion to $66.7 billion. (You can read USAFacts Founder Steve Ballmer’s open letter to Education Secretary Linda McMahon on LinkedIn.)Editor’s Note: The AI featured image is by WordPress AI.

'[Musk] officially stepped down from his role...on Friday, May 30, leaving a track record dubious in both substance and style, and certainly far below the initial promises to cut "$1 trillion" in "waste" from US public spending.'
They cut "$175 billion" (dubious!) and then the B.B. Bill adds $3.3 trillion to the deficit. I'm not sure how MAGA people lie to themselves to square this circle.

This message should go to your Senators regarding the budget #ContinuingResolution. You will need to copy and paste it into the forms on their websites.
The House passed a stop-gap bill Tuesday to fund the government through September and the Senate must vote on it. The House has gone into recess to force the Senate to accept the bill with no changes.
Dear Senator --
For months Republicans have talked about how they were going to fund their legislative priorities, but here we are again, facing another Continuing Resolution.
In your negotiations in the Senate, constantly remind everyone that the Constitution Article 1, Section 9, Clause 7 gives the power of the purse to Congress, not the President. The President has no legitimate authority for meddling in the appropriations process.
The Continuing Resolution must include language forbidding the Executive Branch and DOGE from usurping budgetary power from Congress.
Stand firm in your efforts.
