This document is page 92 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the ISBN in the footer filename). The text details Edward Snowden's security paranoia in a hotel room, specifically his use of a 'magical cloak of power' (a red blanket) to hide his passwords. It describes the filming of the documentary 'Citizenfour' by Laura Poitras and a specific introduction between Snowden and journalist Ewen MacAskill, who had been sent by an editor named Gibson to verify Snowden's identity.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020252.jpg

This page from a House Oversight report details the initial meetings between Edward Snowden and journalists (Greenwald, Poitras, MacAskill) in a hotel room on June 4th. It describes Snowden's security rituals (the 'magical cloak'), transcriptions of his introduction to Ewen MacAskill, and critically analyzes discrepancies between Snowden's claims about his career/salary ($200k vs $133k) and the official records from the CIA, DIA, and Booz Allen. The report attempts to discredit Snowden's truthfulness regarding his authority to intercept presidential communications.
