The US federal government’s budget deficit has risen from roughly $984 billion in 2019 (the last year before COVID), to roughly $1.38 trillion in 2022. This is an increase of roughly $400 billion a year, or a roughly 40% increase in the deficit. https://www.fiscal.treasury.gov/reports-statements/financial-report/2019/government-financial-position-and-condition.html https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/national-deficit/
