The article is about spending in 2015, on Obama's watch.

Now that we've got that out of the way, you're free to discuss the actual topic of the thread.

Bettridge's law of headlines likely applies.

The article is about journal adjustments. There does seem to be a ridiculous volume of them, perhaps an accountant could comment but my limited experience is that journal adjustments tend to reclassify things and that they can be applied many times to the same money.
