Would be great if we could dive in deeper, breaking it down by expense purpose, regions, etc.


I've never tried their APIs, but I believe their API would be the only way to get more granular information you are looking for:

* https://github.com/fedspendingtransparency/usaspending-api

* https://api.usaspending.gov/docs/endpoints

* For geography based spending - https://github.com/fedspendingtransparency/usaspending-api/b...


Have you seen USA Facts?

https://usafacts.org/data/topics/government-finances/spendin...

Edit: looks like they’re not as up to date, unfortunately.
