Reverse-engineering Hillary's Crimes

The Hillary email scandal and the Clinton Foundation scandal have been slithering, segment by segment, into public view.
And now we have “pay to play.”

The latest revelation, from the Associated Press:
“More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money — either personally or through companies or groups — to the Clinton Foundation. It’s an extraordinary proportion…Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million [to the Foundation].”

The implication is clear. “You want a favor from the State Department? Pay the Clinton Foundation.”
The National Review gives us the tip of the iceberg:

“Crown Prince Salman of Bahrain wanted a sit-down with Secretary Clinton but was rebuffed; Clinton Foundation executive Douglas Band intervened through [Huma] Abedin to try to find a work-around for the crown prince, who gave donations to the Clinton Global Initiative totaling $32 million through 2010. Donations to the Clinton Foundation came in from the kingdom itself and from the state oil company. Band also intervened to secure a visa for a foreign athlete held up because of his criminal record, doing so at the behest of donor Casey Wasserman, a Hollywood sports-entertainment mogul, whose foundation has contributed between $5 million and $10 million to the Clinton Foundation…”

But let’s put all this in the right perspective. Let’s reverse engineer this. The media has it backwards.
