1/ interest article in Tablet, which ponders connection between Steele dossier and Brennan's August briefings, a topic that I've wondered about from time to time.
tabletmag.com/jewish-news-an… Also discusses Glenn Simpson/Mary Jacoby reporting on Manafort
2/ curiously, on Nov 4, 2016, CyberBerkut published a March 23, 2007 letter from Simpson and Jacoby to Manafort, written in the leadup to April 17, 2007 WSJ article discussed in Tablet web.archive.org/web/2016111918… Otherwise, letter doesnt seem to be public

3/ CyberBerkut claimed to have obtained the letter through a hack on the Ukrainian AAP, which, in the context, appears to be the Presidential Administration of Ukraine.

4/ they also include several other documents pertaining to Manafort (public but not easily accessible), together with documents pertaining to a June 2016 visit to the US by Boris Lozhin, then the head of the Ukrainian Presidential Administration web.archive.org/web/2016111918…
5/ CyberBerkut (which obviously needs to be viewed with caution) claimed that documents were given to Lozhin during his June 2016 visit to Washington by Evan Ryan, an Assistant Secretary of State. (A known meeting that was publicly reported) 2009-2017.state.gov/r/pa/prs/appt/…
6/ CyberBerkut goes on to claim that Ukraine government cooperated in information operation against Manafort at urging of US State Department web.archive.org/web/2016111918…

Entire matter very murky. But Ukrainian connections troublesome in other aspects.
