The FBI receives information in June 2017 that that one of Steele's sub-sources was in contact with a Russian PA official in June/July 2016. That same month the CIA exfiltrates PA official and asset Oleg Smolenkov. Here lies the Brennan/Steele Nexus. #FISA theguardian.com/world/2019/sep… 
Brennan's "Fusion Cell" that was set up in April 2016, was probably aware of these communications in real time. #FISA businessinsider.com/trump-russia-d… washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/… nytimes.com/2017/05/24/us/…
Footnote 211 indicates that Steele's "August 2017 sub-source" could be a person affiliated with Oleg Deripaska (Russian Oligarch 1) given the July 2016 timeframe and information in Footnote 347.
Victor Boyarkin, a former employee of Oleg Deripaska, was approached by Mueller's Office. time.com/5490169/paul-m…
During this June/July 2016 time period, two persons that Mueller would refer to as "affiliated with RIS" were emailing each other. They would be Boyarkin and Konstantin Kilimnik. #FISA theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
If Smolenkov was the PA official in contact with the Footnote 347 sub-source, it could mean that Brennan/CIA was funneling him misidentified 702 database info regarding Michael Cohen, given that sub-source was responsible for the Cohen in Prague memos.
Hypothesis: Given Steele's "August 2017 sub-source" had #FISA 702 coverage, this could be the genesis of @CNN's Manafort FISA claim if Victor Boyarkin (or Kilimnik) is the sub-source. cnn.com/2017/09/18/pol…
