U.S. budget deficit this year already 21% higher than last year

The federal government racked up a $76.9 billion deficit in July, with increased government spending and tax cuts keeping the country on track to record its biggest annual deficit in six years.

The Treasury Department reported Friday that in the first 10 months of this budget year:

  • The deficit totaled $684 billion, up 20.8 percent from the same period last year.
  • Revenues are up only 1 percent this year, the increase held back by a big drop in corporate tax payments.
  • Spending is up 4.4 percent, reflecting a big boost Congress approved earlier this year for domestic and military programs and the rising costs of financing the debt.
The Trump administration last month sharply revised upward its deficit estimates, projecting annual deficits will once again top $1 trillion in the 2019 budget year, climbing to $1.1 trillion, and remaining above $1 trillion for three years.

Navy Admiral William H. McRaven said:
A good leader tries to embody the best qualities of his or her organization. A good leader sets the example for others to follow. A good leader always puts the welfare of others before himself or herself.

Your leadership, however, has shown little of these qualities. Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation.

When the noose finally tightens, will the orange shit-stain seek asylum in the land of the Rus?

...or will his handler hang him out to dry.

Inquiring minds want to know.

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure it will somehow involve Steven Seagal.
