Even more importantly, the skeleton framework of what would later become the Steele dossier was put in place as early as 2007 by fusionGPS's Glenn Simpson who co-authored with his wife
Mary Jacoby, a WSJ article talking about Putin, Manafort & Oleg Deripaska.

"Bob Dole was handsomely compensated for getting a U.S. visa for controversial Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska" https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB117674837248471543

"Paul Manafort, a former adviser to Mr. Dole's presidential campaign, has advised a Ukrainian metals billionaire and his close political ally, Ukrainian Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich"

"Mr. Deripaska, who has close ties to the Kremlin, emerged from Russia's "aluminum wars" of the 1990s with a virtual monopoly on the nation's aluminum production"

"In 2003-2005, Mr. Firtash brokered several billion-dollar deals between Gazprom and the government of Ukraine. They netted big profits for Highrock -- and criticism from the U.S. ambassador to the Ukraine at the time for the deals' lack of transparency"

The basic plot of this article is that the Russians are trying to influence American politics. Which just so coincidentally happens to be the exact plot of the Christopher Steele dossier.

Mary Jacoby even boasted about her husband's role in writing the dossier in a Facebook post. https://twitter.com/rising_serpent/status/944115689887031296?s=19

And what are the odds that Mary Jacoby visited the Obama White House on April 19, 2016, the same month that DNC & Hillary hired Fusion to conduct "oppo research" into Trump's ties to the Russians? https://twitter.com/rising_serpent/status/1176683417108439040?s=19

And here's the one thing that most people don't know about Mary Jacoby:
She worked at the Rose law firm.
Rose law firm was the same law firm that Hillary Clinton worked at back in Arkansas. https://twitter.com/1foreverseeking/status/1176696697222774786?s=19
