This document appears to be a proof page (page 21) from a book, likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the filename 'Epst...'), included in a House Oversight Committee production. The text details the deep federal government connections of Edward Snowden's family, specifically focusing on his grandfather, Admiral Barrett, who was a high-ranking FBI official involved in CIA-FBI interrogations at Guantánamo. It highlights that in 2006, every member of Snowden's immediate family was employed by the federal government.
