Our National Debt is now officially over $40 Trillion dollars…
This should ALARM every American citizen!!!
Approximately $3.8–3.83 trillion has been added to the total public debt outstanding since Trump took office for his second term on January 20, 2025, which is roughly 9.6% of the current ~$40.05 trillion total (or about a 10.6% increase from the starting level).
As of August 18, 2026 (data released August 19), the U.S. Treasury reported total public debt outstanding at exactly $40,047,425,768,420.22 (about $40.047 trillion). This crossed the $40 trillion mark for the first time. It consists of roughly $32.266 trillion held by the public and $7.782 trillion in intragovernmental holdings.
Around the start of the second term, the figure was approximately $36.218 trillion (Treasury data show ~$36.218 trillion on January 21, 2025; contemporaneous reporting places it in the low $36.2 trillion range near January 20, consistent with the debt limit reinstatement around $36.1 trillion earlier that month).
•Dollar amount added so far in the second term: ~$3.83 trillion ($40.047T − $36.218T). Multiple reports round this to $3.8 trillion.
•As a share of today’s total debt: (~$3.83T / $40.047T) ≈ 9.56%.
•Percentage increase from the January 2025 starting level: (~$3.83T / $36.218T) ≈ 10.6%.
Context and caveats
Debt accumulation is driven by annual deficits (spending exceeding revenues), which are influenced by prior laws, entitlement growth, interest costs, tax policy, discretionary spending, and economic conditions—not solely by the sitting president. Interest payments have become a major driver, and reports note factors such as tax cuts, military/related spending, and ongoing structural imbalances contributing to recent deficits (projected in the ~$2 trillion range for the current fiscal year in some coverage).
For broader perspective across Trump’s time in office (both terms), some reporting cites a cumulative rise on the order of $11.6 trillion, with the bulk of the first-term increase tied heavily to pandemic response. Biden-era increases were also large (commonly cited around $8+ trillion depending on exact start/end points and methodology). Debt more than doubled over roughly the prior decade from levels near $20 trillion.
These are point-in-time Treasury “Debt to the Penny” / total public debt outstanding figures. Daily changes fluctuate, and exact inauguration-day matching can vary slightly due to weekends/holidays and reporting. Debt-to-GDP and debt held by the public are often preferred analytical measures over the gross total, as the latter includes intragovernmental holdings. Figures and projections continue to evolve with new fiscal data.
What few people watch…
This is when the Trump Administration is asking for another $1.5t to fund the Iran War that Trump started and we don’t know why other than a nuclear bomb, that Obama had already stopped from being built.

We are losing all the data, the early notification systems that help predict weather patterns and how the Earth is changing!
There is no need to remove these sensors! These have been bought and paid for by us already!
This could have catastrophic consequences for our country.
Science gasps for breath. They are removing all the ocean monitors to understand changes in currents and climate, and the excuse is a master class in obfuscation & double speak . (1/2) nytimes.com/2026/06/01/clima…
When they say it’s the most powerful rocket ever built and launched, I have never seen concussion waves like this before! Absolutely insane what the Raptor 3 engines can accomplish!
Are you ok with oil drilling in our National Parks?
Why destroy our public lands that tourists from around the world come to see and appreciate?
Our National treasures are being turned into eye sores for no other reason but profit from Trumps oil buddies!
This is not getting enough attention!
Trump is settling with himself, for $1,776b
Ballroom $1b (was supposed to be be free)
New Air Force 1 $400m
No new Healthcare plan
Now he has a blanket IRS exemption
Breaking the Emolument Clause each and every day…
And our DEBT?!?
National debt is barreling towards $40 trillion.
27% of this debt occurred under Donald Trump, despite him only being President for 2% of American history.
Republicans are terrible for the economy.
Department of Defense = Department of War
Not starting any wars = Bomb them to the Stone Age
Ukraine war will end day one = not done
Releasing the Epstein files = Blocking them from all being released and breaking the law
When is enough, enough?!?!
So Stephen is concerned about a baby getting citizenship and voting 18 years later…
Or am I just missing something?
Because, illegal aliens can not vote until they become a citizen, and just because their baby is a citizen, that voting will not happen for 18 years?!?!

Trump did this…
Gerald Ford uçak gemisi böyle yanmış. ABD, yangının çamaşırhane çıktığını iddia ediyor. Bu nasıl çamaşırhane? 337 metrelik geminin altını kaplamış, heryeri yanıyor. 200 asker yaralı, hiçbiri güverteye çıkmayı akıl edememiş mi? "Vurulduk" demek bu kadar mı zor?
