This claim has been rated false. The combined deficits for FY 2021 and FY 2022 is ~$800 billion higher than what the CBO projected in 2021, but the actual deficit has *decreased* from $3.13 trillion in 2020 to $1.38 trillion during the Biden administration. https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-did-joe-biden-increase-deficit-800-billion-1779823?amp=1
