Interest payments on the national debt during the current fiscal year (October to February) are up 29 percent y/y, one of the fastest-growing expenditure components of the Federal budget. 

Interest payments were $238 billion from Oct 2021 to Feb 2022, and they are now $307 billion from Oct 2022 to Feb 2023.  (These are gross payments instead of net payments).
