"This is Nuts," Ramaswamy Blasts NYC's $220 MN Deal with Pakistan's Hotel | Firstpost America

New York City's $220 million deal to rent the Roosevelt Hotel, owned by Pakistan's government, has sparked outrage. The iconic Manhattan hotel, now used to house undocumented migrants, is part of Pakistan's efforts to tackle its economic crisis. Republican leader Vivek Ramaswamy has slammed the agreement, calling it "nuts," as NYC taxpayers effectively fund a foreign government struggling with debt and mismanagement. The three-year lease, costing $210 per room per night for 1,250 rooms, has critics questioning the city's spending priorities. With Pakistan profiting from America's migrant crisis, Ramaswamy vows to fight such wasteful expenditures. Is this deal a necessity or a gross misuse of public funds? The debate rages on.
