I don't see where they made the political connection other than the farm was located in range. Maybe they had evidence they didn't share. The site was also in range of Wall Street and everybody else in the city. All kinds of fraud, surveillance, and private comms were possible.
It's possible after some threats they decided to probe cell network behaviour around some buildings downtown. And this particular farm wasn't the original source, just something they found in the process.
