HeadlineJan 02, 2018

Meanwhile, Pakistan summoned U.S. Ambassador David Hale Monday to explain President Trump’s first tweet of the new year. Early Monday, Trump tweeted, “The United States has foolishly given Pakistan more than 33 billion dollars in aid over the last 15 years, and they have given us nothing but lies & deceit, thinking of our leaders as fools. They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, with little help. No more!”
