HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019535.jpg

This document appears to be page 47 of a book manuscript (likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, based on the filename ISBN) produced as part of a House Oversight Committee investigation. The text analyzes the psychological motivations of leakers, referencing Edward Shils' work on the 'torment of secrecy,' and details Edward Snowden's mindset and access levels at the NSA in 2012.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019208.jpg

This document is a page from a House Oversight report detailing the timeline and circumstances of Edward Snowden's flight from Hong Kong to Russia in 2013. It refutes Snowden's claim that he was trapped in Russia by the US, presenting evidence that his passport was revoked before he left Hong Kong and that the Russian government (specifically Putin and Aeroflot) facilitated his travel. It also implicates WikiLeaks in funding and assisting his escape and cites Russian officials claiming Snowden shared intelligence with Russian security services.

This document appears to be a page from a legal manuscript or book draft (page 127), possibly written by Alan Dershowitz (based on the claim of being a 1964 law clerk). The text argues against the prosecution of Wikileaks, framing it as 'selective prosecution' and comparing it to historical misuse of power like the Alien and Sedition Acts. It includes a detailed footnote discussing First Amendment 'strict scrutiny' regarding violent video game legislation.

This document appears to be a page from a book draft or manuscript (likely by Alan Dershowitz, given the Bates stamp context and footer citation) dated April 2, 2012. It discusses the First Amendment, contrasting the historical Pentagon Papers case with the modern challenges posed by Julian Assange and Wikileaks.

It details his strategic planning, including job changes, financial preparation, and communications with Laura Poitras and Julian Assange.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020347.jpg

This page from a House Oversight document (Bates 020347) details the logistics and motivations behind Edward Snowden's flight from Hong Kong to Moscow in 2013. It argues that Snowden likely never intended to travel to Latin America (Ecuador or Cuba) because he feared CIA capture there, a sentiment he expressed to journalists like Katrina vanden Heuvel and Glenn Greenwald. The document recounts the media frenzy surrounding Aeroflot flight SU-150, noting that while reporters swarmed the plane based on a tip, Snowden was never on board.

2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020346.jpg

This document appears to be a page from a book or investigative report (Chapter 25: Vanishing Act) included in House Oversight Committee files. It details the author's 2015 trip to Moscow to investigate Edward Snowden's 2013 arrival and subsequent stay in the airport transit zone. The text challenges Snowden's narrative, citing reports from *Izvestia* that suggest his arrival was a coordinated operation with Russian intelligence services, rather than him simply being trapped due to a revoked passport.

Book chapter / investigative report (house oversight committee document)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020296.jpg

This document appears to be page 144 of a book or report (likely by Edward Jay Epstein) analyzing the timeline of NSA document leaks attributed to Edward Snowden. It questions how Snowden could continue releasing documents via Wikileaks and The Intercept (regarding French presidents and Israeli operations) years after supposedly destroying his files in Hong Kong, suggesting potential involvement or approval by Russian intelligence services. The text details specific leaks from June and July 2015 and cites interviews with intelligence officials.

Book manuscript / investigative report page
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020283.jpg

This document, labeled as a House Oversight record (page 131), details the geopolitical maneuvering surrounding Edward Snowden's flight from Hong Kong to Russia in 2013. It discusses the lack of an extradition treaty between Russia and the US, Vladimir Putin's approval of the exfiltration, and the 'Moscow Scenario' where the FSB took control of Snowden upon arrival. The text highlights that Snowden was prevented from traveling to other nations (Cuba, Venezuela, etc.) and was effectively detained in the airport transit zone/FSB safe houses, with Putin adviser Sergei Markov noting Snowden's value in compromising US intelligence officials.

Report/narrative excerpt (house oversight committee document)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020270.jpg

This document appears to be Page 118 (Chapter Fifteen) of a book or report titled 'Did Snowden Act Alone?', stamped with a House Oversight footer. The text discusses the blurred lines between whistleblowers and spies, citing historical examples such as Donald Maclean, Bradley Birkenfeld, and Daniel Ellsberg. It argues that neither financial compensation nor acting alone are definitive distinctions between the two categories, noting that whistleblowers often have accomplices or receive bounties.

Book manuscript / investigative report chapter
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020265.jpg

This document appears to be page 113 of a House Oversight Committee report or narrative regarding Edward Snowden. It details his transition from a technician to a media figure in Moscow, his support network (including Julian Assange and Sarah Harrison), and his media appearances. The text critically analyzes his escape to Russia, suggesting it was not accidental but likely involved cooperation with Russian intelligence (FSB/KGB) and President Putin in exchange for NSA secrets. The text contains several typographical errors (e.g., 'denting' instead of 'denying', 'far trial' instead of 'fair trial').

Government/congressional report or narrative summary (house oversight committee)

It describes how Snowden was allowed to board an Aeroflot flight without a valid passport or visa and highlights Julian Assange's strategy of creating 'distractions,' including a fake booking to Cuba and spreading misinformation that grounded Bolivian President Evo Morales' plane. The text appears to be part of a House Oversight Committee report regarding the Snowden incident.

Investigative report / narrative (house oversight committee)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020262.jpg

It describes his interactions with journalists Poitras, Greenwald, and Gellman, specifically noting Gellman's refusal to help Snowden evade authorities via an encrypted key. The text analyzes Snowden's potential asylum destinations, including Iceland and Ecuador, detailing the logistical and diplomatic attempts made by Assange to secure travel documents, and questions Snowden's intended destination given his lack of visas.

Congressional report/exhibit (excerpt from a book or narrative report)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020259.jpg

This document, page 107 of a House Oversight record, details the logistics of Edward Snowden's escape from Hong Kong in June 2013. It describes how Wikileaks associate Sarah Harrison, under Julian Assange's direction, used tradecraft such as burner phones and decoy flight bookings (to Beijing and New Delhi) to evade US intelligence before securing a flight to Moscow. The text also analyzes the financial state of Wikileaks at the time and the diplomatic tension regarding extradition between the US, Hong Kong, and China.

Investigative report / congressional record

2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020257.jpg

Investigative report / narrative summary (likely from house oversight committee production)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020235.jpg

This document appears to be a page from a narrative report or book regarding the Edward Snowden leaks. It details the initial anonymous communications between Snowden (using the handle 'Citizen 4') and filmmaker Laura Poitras. The text describes Snowden's offer to provide evidence of illegal NSA surveillance and Presidential Policy 20 (signed by Obama in Oct 2012), his operational security concerns, and his specific request to be publicly identified ('nailed to the cross') to prevent suspicion from falling on his colleagues or loved ones.

Report / narrative account (page 83 from a larger house oversight production)
2025-11-19

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020232.jpg

The document details the initial encrypted communication methods established between Edward Snowden (using aliases Anon108 and Citizen Four) and Laura Poitras in early 2013. It describes how Snowden utilized Micah Lee of the Freedom of the Press Foundation as an intermediary to obtain Poitras' PGP key. The text also critiques Snowden's initial claims to Poitras regarding his seniority and status within the intelligence community.
