Update to raise both defense and interest. Defense is close to a trillion per year now (and very likely over a trillion once blakc budgets are included) and as widely reported, interest has moved up a few notches o the ladder as well.
According to National Debt clock https://usdebtclock.org/index.html
"real time"
Medicare/Medicaid 26.3% (the posted graphic separates "Medicare" from "health"?)
Social Security 21.3%
Defense 13.1%
Interest 12.0%
Debt Clock is a fun read. It should appear as the cover screen in every voting machine.
