Despite concerns from debt hawks, the U.S. government is continuing to borrow at pace: For the fiscal year of 2026 so far, the federal deficit has totaled just under $1.4 trillion.
The first nine months of this fiscal year (beginning in October) have now surpassed the borrowing levels of 2025, when deficits totaled just over $1.3 trillion for the same period.
At the time of writing, the total U.S. national debt sits at $39.4 trillion, accumulated under administrations led by both Republicans and Democrats.
U.S. national debt is quickly approaching $40 trillion. At current pace it will cross this landmark level as soon as September 2026. This news comes as blow to Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's aim to lower interest rates as the Treasury needs to roll over $9T worth of U.S debt in 2026.
