This document appears to be page 161 from a book manuscript (likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein based on the filename ISBN) produced during a House Oversight investigation. The text analyzes Edward Snowden's actions, questioning whether he was a Russian asset or a whistleblower. It argues that Snowden's contact with journalists Greenwald and Poitras contradicts the behavior of a controlled Russian intelligence asset, as it risked exposing the operation.
