HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019672.jpg
This document is page 184 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, stamped as evidence by the House Oversight Committee. The text discusses the timeline of Edward Snowden's leaks, specifically questioning how documents released in 2016 (via The Intercept) regarding Israeli drone intercepts were distributed if Snowden supposedly destroyed his files.

It also provides background on former NSA technical director William Binney and the 'Stellarwind' surveillance program authorized by President Bush in 2001.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019552.jpg
This document appears to be page 64 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' (Edward Jay Epstein is the author of this book, explaining the 'Epst' filename, though the content is about Snowden, not Jeffrey Epstein). It details Edward Snowden's initial encrypted communications with filmmaker Laura Poitras in January 2013 under the alias 'Citizen Four,' noting that Snowden falsely claimed to be a senior government official while actually working as a Dell contractor.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019551.jpg
This document appears to be a proof page (p. 63) from a book, likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the ISBN in the filename). The text details how Edward Snowden, using the alias 'Anon108', established initial contact with filmmaker Laura Poitras in January 2013 by using Micah Lee as an intermediary to bypass NSA surveillance. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' footer, suggesting it was included in a congressional investigation file.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019550.jpg
This document appears to be a page (page 62) from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the footer ISBN and title). It details the timeline of Edward Snowden's attempts to communicate with journalist Glenn Greenwald, his frustration with Greenwald's lack of encryption, and his subsequent decision to use filmmaker Laura Poitras as an intermediary.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019546.jpg
This document appears to be a proof page (p. 58) from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' (likely by Edward Jay Epstein, indicated by the filename). It discusses Edward Snowden's activities under the alias 'Cincinnatus' while working as a Dell contractor, noting that his non-NSA employee status legally prevented the NSA's 'Q' unit from monitoring his interactions with activists and Tor advocates without an FBI warrant. The page bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020376.jpg
This document page (labeled House Oversight) is a narrative analysis focusing on the impact of Edward Snowden's intelligence leaks. It details how Snowden communicated with journalists Laura Poitras and Jacob Appelbaum in 2013 and cites officials like Michael Morell and Admiral Rogers confirming that the leaks caused terrorist targets (specifically ISIS and those on the PRISM watch list) to go dark or change communication methods. The text references the November 2015 Paris attacks but concludes that while specific events can't be solely blamed on Snowden, his actions purposefully compromised intelligence operations.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020330.jpg
This document appears to be page 178 of a House Oversight Committee report focused on the Edward Snowden leaks. It details operational security failures by Snowden and his journalist contacts (Poitras, Greenwald) in 2013, noting that Poitras shared information with multiple people and Greenwald shared details with his partner, David Miranda. The text also analyzes Russian cyber espionage capabilities, noting their focus on breaking TOR networks and their advanced tools capable of bypassing US government security.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020295.jpg
This document, marked as House Oversight material, analyzes the Snowden leaks specifically regarding the surveillance of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. It argues that the document revealing the spying on Merkel was not part of the original cache Snowden gave to Greenwald and Poitras in Hong Kong, suggesting it was released later from Moscow or via another source. The text details James Bamford's forensic analysis of the drive, which found no mention of Merkel, leading to speculation about how *Der Spiegel* obtained the information.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020294.jpg
This document page, bearing a House Oversight footer, details intelligence community concerns regarding Edward Snowden's stay in Hong Kong in 2013. It discusses the high probability that Chinese and Russian intelligence services accessed the stolen NSA files on Snowden's laptops through technical or human means while he was at the Mira Hotel and other residences. The text also covers subsequent leaks published after Snowden arrived in Moscow, specifically the revelation via Der Spiegel that the NSA had monitored German Chancellor Angela Merkel's cell phone.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020281.jpg
This document appears to be page 129 of a House Oversight report (marked HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020281) discussing Edward Snowden, not Jeffrey Epstein. It details a theory that Russian intelligence may have been aware of Snowden's activities prior to his arrival in Hong Kong in 2013 by monitoring the anti-surveillance activists he communicated with, such as Runa Sandvik and Laura Poitras. The text includes insights from a 2015 interview with a former NSA counterintelligence officer regarding Russian capabilities to bypass encryption and potentially steer Snowden's movements.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020247.jpg
This document, page 95 of a House Oversight file, details the interactions between journalists Laura Poitras, Glenn Greenwald, and hacktivist Jacob Appelbaum with Edward Snowden (referred to as Citizen 4) leading up to the 2013 NSA leaks. It describes the vetting process of Snowden's technical claims, Greenwald's travel logistics from Rio to New York to seek approval from Guardian editor Janine Gibson, and Gibson's hesitation regarding Snowden's 'manifesto.' The text outlines the specific legal risks and editorial decisions faced by The Guardian regarding the publication of SCI top-secret documents.
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.
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.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020231.jpg
This page of a House Oversight report details the timeline of Edward Snowden's attempts to contact journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras in late 2012 and early 2013 regarding NSA domestic surveillance.

The text concludes with Snowden contacting Micah Lee in January 2013 as a secure route to reach Poitras in Berlin.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020228.jpg
The document discusses the security vulnerabilities within the NSA created by a "culture of transparency" and reliance on civilian contractors like Edward Snowden, who worked for Dell. It highlights how Snowden was able to openly organize crypto parties and communicate with anti-NSA activists while working as a contractor, as legal constraints prevented the NSA from monitoring his private activities without a FISA warrant.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020433.jpg
This document is page 281 of a report, specifically the endnotes for 'Chapter Thirty: The Consequences for the War on Terror'. It lists nine sources, primarily news articles and interviews from 2013-2015, concerning NSA surveillance, Edward Snowden, and counterterrorism efforts.
