Perhaps, all of these choices are in play.

“The aid in the last five years at least has been less than $10m a year.”

$10m a year, lol? This Pakistan PM is dumb as pile of rocks and is a consummate liar, a required skill to shine among a taqiya populace.

I agree, as taxpayers, it is our money. WE should immediately cut off all foreign aid to countries who hate us. The next step would be to review how the aid we send to the other countries who support us is being spent. I say America first!

NY POST REPORT-CIRCA 2017---New Trump admin to pressure foreign
states to probe Clinton Foundation (targeting Haiti and Columbia)

Foreign governments have apparently begun turning off money spigots to the scandal-scarred Clinton Foundation. The Clintons received millions from dozens of foreign governments including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, Sweden and Ireland.

TO DATE:
<><> French federal comptrollers began following a trail of tens of millions in government money that ended up in Clinton Foundation coffers, according to a document reviewed by The NY Post.
<><> The Australian government announced that it would end its decade-long affiliation with the Clinton Foundation — amounting to as much as $25 million, according to the foundation’s Web site.
<><> Norway is also scaling back; donations reached $25 million in 2015.

A source close to then-Pres-elect Trump's transition team indicated plans to pressure its yet unnamed US ambassadors to suggest foreign governments probe its ­Clinton Foundation financial dealings. “Haiti and Colombia will be key diplomatic posts because of all the money ­involved,” said the source.

Recently leaked ­e-mails indicate “Friends of Bill” Clinton may have been given priority from the State Department as it prepared to spend some $10 billion tax dollars in aid after a 2010 devastating earthquake in Haiti. The State Dept denied any special treatment.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra pledged $100 million to the foundation in 2005 and later benefited from the foundation’s philanthropic work in Columbia where Giustra acquired large large parcels of land and set up an oil business, ­according to watchdog groups. (hat tip NY POST)

==========================================

Australia effectively ending 10 years of 88 million taxpayer-funded contributions to the Clinton Foundation......

The Australian newspaper the "Herald Sun" ran an October article entitled, “Why have we donated to Clinton’s foundation?” The paper noted "Former Prime Minister Gillard donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.”

=========================

That's one humongous amt of Australian govt money that fell into the hands of the conniving Clintons.

The Herald Sun needs to dig deeper---to determine if any of that money took a circuitous route then landed back into the personal coffers of the donors.
