Summary

This document appears to be page 322 from the notes section of a book, likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the ISBN in the footer). It contains endnotes for Chapter 18, citing various news articles and interviews regarding intelligence agencies (NSA, CIA), Russian espionage, and Edward Snowden. The document has a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' stamp, suggesting it was part of a larger document production for a congressional committee. Despite the filename containing 'Epst', the content relates to the author Edward Jay Epstein, not Jeffrey Epstein.
