Like I said, they had been investigating Manafort for nearly 2 years - BECAUSE of the Ukraine thing - and dropped it for lack of evidence. What you're referring to may have been leaked/reported in August, but I believe that's actually the reason he had been under investigation initially.....it was something else that led to new FISA warrants.
Similar story with Carter Page, who reportedly was also being investigated back to 2014. But the article wasn't clear on whether those FISA warrants simply renewed as part of that ongoing investigation, or if a new investigation was opened because of new "evidence".
