HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019818.jpg
This document is page 330 of a selected bibliography from a book, likely produced as evidence for the House Oversight Committee (marked HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019818). The page lists various articles published between 2010 and 2015, primarily focusing on Edward Snowden, the NSA leaks, WikiLeaks, and cybersecurity. While the document bears a file name starting with 'Epst' (possibly referring to Epstein in a larger production batch), the text itself is entirely focused on the Snowden saga and intelligence leaks.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019800.jpg
This document is page 312 of a book (indicated by the file name and layout), appearing in a House Oversight Committee file. It consists of endnotes (numbers 59-70) citing various articles, interviews, and books related to the Edward Snowden NSA leaks, focusing heavily on journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras. The notes reference publications from 2010 to 2016, including The Guardian, Wired, and NPR.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019650.jpg
This document is page 162 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, bearing a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp. The text discusses the 'Hong Kong Scenario,' suggesting that Edward Snowden may have been brought under Russian intelligence control during his stay in Hong Kong, citing Vladimir Putin's admission of engagement. It also details Snowden's communications with activists like Runa Sandvik and Laura Poitras, noting that NSA sources believed Russian intelligence could bypass their encryption methods.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019575.jpg
This document is a page (87) from the book 'Escape Artist,' likely produced as evidence in a House Oversight investigation (Bates stamped). It details Edward Snowden's preparations in Hong Kong, including a contingency plan involving Micah Lee building a 'dead man's switch' website, and the coordination with journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras to break the NSA surveillance story via The Guardian.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019571.jpg
This document appears to be page 83 from a book titled 'Escape Artist,' included in a House Oversight discovery file (Bates HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019571). The text details Edward Snowden's communications in May 2013 with journalists Barton Gellman and Glenn Greenwald regarding the release of the PRISM and mass domestic spying stories. It describes Snowden's frustration with delays, his pressure on Gellman, and his subsequent aggressive recruitment of Greenwald to travel to Hong Kong.
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_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_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_020248.jpg
This document appears to be a page from a report or narrative (marked House Oversight) detailing the logistics and communications leading up to the publication of the Edward Snowden NSA leaks in June 2013. It describes the coordination between Snowden, Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras, and The Guardian (represented by 'Gibson' and Ewen MacAskill), including travel to Hong Kong and the setup of a contingency website with a 'dead man's switch.' The text focuses on Snowden's motivations, his specific instructions to journalists, and the editorial decisions made by The Guardian regarding Snowden's manifesto versus the NSA documents.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020245.jpg
This document is page 93 of a House Oversight record (marked HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020245). While the prompt requests 'Epstein-related' analysis, the text of this specific page is exclusively a narrative account regarding Edward Snowden, the NSA PRISM program, and Snowden's communications with journalists Barton Gellman and Glenn Greenwald in May 2013. It details Snowden's attempts to get the Washington Post to publish leaked materials and his subsequent pivot to Greenwald amid logistical and security concerns in Hong Kong.
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. It describes Poitras' background, her anti-surveillance activism, and her connections to other figures like William Binney and Jacob Appelbaum. The text concludes with Snowden contacting Micah Lee in January 2013 as a secure route to reach Poitras in Berlin.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020230.jpg
This document page, stamped with a House Oversight footer, details the formation of the Freedom of the Press Foundation in 2012 to fund WikiLeaks and Bradley Manning amidst financial blockades. It narrates the prelude to the Snowden leaks, describing Edward Snowden's admiration for journalist Glenn Greenwald's anti-surveillance writings and Snowden's initial attempts (under the alias Cincinnatus) to contact Greenwald and urge him to use email encryption. It highlights specific blog posts from November 2012 where Greenwald criticized the US surveillance state.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020401.jpg

It consists of numbered citations referencing materials related to Edward Snowden, including books by Glenn Greenwald and Luke Hardy, an article in The Intercept, and a BBC Panorama transcript.
