Forgot that we have been giving $$$$ to Pakistan for a while. Just a kneejerk reaction to this clown when he sends our money anywhere. It won’t go to it’s publicly announced purposes.

He has increased the aid to Pakistan and asking for more. Still seems crazy, when we are hurting here.
another article on the topic- regarding bill that passed, 2009.

--US president Barack Obama has unveiled plans to triple non-military aid to Pakistan in exchange for its commitment to act against extremist activity. The new legislation allocates $7.5 billion for building schools, roads and clinics but also calls for more effective efforts against the Taleban and Al-Qaeda.
