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.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019785.jpg
This document appears to be page 297 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the filename 'Epst' and ISBN), processed as part of a House Oversight investigation. The text discusses the negative impact of Edward Snowden's leaks on U.S. and allied intelligence capabilities, specifically citing former Paris prosecutor François Molins and CIA official Michael Morell. It details how terrorist groups like ISIS shifted to end-to-end encryption (specifically Telegram) to evade PRISM surveillance and mentions the 2014 discovery of ISIS plans to use biological weapons (bubonic plague) against Western targets.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019765.jpg
This document page discusses Edward Snowden's calculated move from Dell to Booz Allen Hamilton, arguing that the transition was motivated by a desire to access specific intelligence documents unavailable at Dell, such as the 2013 "black budget." The text suggests that Snowden's actions went beyond whistleblowing and provided significant value to foreign adversaries like Russia and China by exposing sensitive information and intelligence sources.

This document appears to be a page from a book (Chapter 18: The Unheeded Warning) produced as evidence in a House Oversight investigation (Bates stamp HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019675). The text details the story of Alexander Poteyev, a Russian SVR colonel recruited by the CIA as a mole in the 1990s, who provided critical intelligence in April 2010 while serving as deputy chief of the SVR's 'American' section. The file includes a timestamp of September 29, 2016, and the filename prefix 'Epst' suggests it may be part of a collection related to Epstein or a similarly named file dump, though the content strictly concerns US-Russia intelligence operations.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019625.jpg
This document appears to be page 137 from a book (likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, based on the ISBN in the footer filename) included in House Oversight Committee files. The text details the aftermath of the Edward Snowden data breach, focusing on the DIA's forensic examination, the creation of the Joint Staff Mitigation Oversight Task Force, and the delayed briefing of CIA leadership (Brennan and Morell) regarding the extent of the theft. It highlights the friction between the NSA and CIA regarding information sharing about the breach.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019518.jpg
This document appears to be page 30 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the filename 'Epst_...'). The text details Edward Snowden's transition from the CIA to private contractor Dell, noting a security clearance loophole that allowed him to retain clearance despite CIA concerns. It describes his assignment to the NSA complex at Yokota Air Base in Japan in June 2009, where he trained military personnel on cyber security. The document bears a House Oversight 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_020363.jpg
This document is a page from a House Oversight report detailing Edward Snowden's strategic employment shift from Dell to Booz Allen Hamilton to gain access to specific intelligence documents, including the 'black budget' and foreign intelligence lists (Level 3). It argues that Snowden's motivation went beyond whistleblowing to seeking documents that enhanced his power, referencing his ability to access allied intelligence (Britain, Israel, etc.) via 'Priv Ac' clearance. The text includes quotes from CIA Deputy Director Morell regarding the value of the stolen data to Russian intelligence.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020351.jpg
This document appears to be a page from a book or narrative report included in House Oversight Committee records. It details an interview with KGB officer Victor Cherkashin regarding the motivations and handling of famous American spies Aldrich Ames (CIA) and Robert Hanssen (FBI). The text contrasts Ames, who was managed by the KGB and motivated by resentment and debt, with Hanssen, who was a self-recruited 'mercenary' that controlled the terms of his own espionage.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020337.jpg
This document appears to be a page from a House Oversight report or narrative detailing the timeline of Edward Snowden's leak of NSA documents in May-June 2013. It describes his movements in Hong Kong, his communications with Washington Post journalist Barton Gellman (issuing an ultimatum to publish), and the intelligence risks posed by Chinese and Russian services monitoring him. The text highlights the pressure Snowden was under to publish before his medical leave expired on June 3rd, at which point the NSA would realize he was missing.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020336.jpg
This document appears to be page 184 from a book (likely by Edward Jay Epstein regarding Edward Snowden) included in a House Oversight Committee production. It details Edward Snowden's arrival in Hong Kong in May 2013, his possession of critical NSA documents, and the geopolitical risks involved, specifically regarding China and Russia. The text analyzes Snowden as a 'single point of failure' for US intelligence and discusses the potential for hostile foreign intelligence services to access the stolen data.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020299.jpg
This document is a page from a book or report (Chapter 18: The Unheeded Warning) marked as House Oversight evidence. It details the history of Alexander Poteyev, a high-level SVR colonel recruited by the CIA in the 1990s who provided warnings in 2010 about Russian espionage. The text explains the SVR's strategy of using 'illegal' sleeper agents in the US to bypass FBI surveillance of diplomatic staff and service moles within US intelligence agencies.
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_020290.jpg
This page, likely from a House Oversight Committee report, analyzes the intelligence implications of Edward Snowden's presence in Russia. It discusses conflicting narratives regarding whether Snowden retained possession of NSA and CIA documents after arriving in Moscow, highlighting inconsistencies between Snowden's claims and statements made by his lawyer, Anatoly Kucherena (who is noted to have ties to the FSB). The text speculates on the FSB's access to Snowden's encrypted data, possibly through cloud storage retrieval or coercion.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020282.jpg
This document, page 130 of a larger report (stamped HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020282), analyzes the intelligence implications of Edward Snowden's flight to Hong Kong and subsequent move to Russia. It details the strategic calculations made by Vladimir Putin and Russian intelligence to accept Snowden, not out of sentiment, but to capitalize on the disruption to US interests. The text also draws parallels between Snowden's situation and the harsh treatment of Bradley Manning, suggesting Snowden knew he could not return to the US without facing similar imprisonment.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020279.jpg
This document is page 127 of a House Oversight report analyzing intelligence failures and defectors. It contrasts the rejected asylum request of Chinese official Wang Lijun with the case of Edward Snowden, detailing concerns that Snowden may have been recruited by Russian intelligence as early as 2009 or during his financial troubles in Geneva. The text outlines three possible scenarios for when Snowden came under Russian control and cites assessments by CIA Deputy Director Michael Morell and NSA Director General Keith Alexander.
