File Size: 1.67 MB
Summary

This document is page 78 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein. It details Edward Snowden's activities in April 2013, including his correspondence with NSA legal counsel regarding the precedence of Congressional acts, his completion of orientation at Fort Meade, his return to Hawaii to move houses with Mills, and his request for medical leave from Booz Allen as a pretext for his exit. The document appears to be part of a House Oversight production (stamped HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019566), likely included due to the author's name (Edward Jay Epstein) rather than a direct link to Jeffrey Epstein.
