This document appears to be page 285 from a book titled 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the filename prefix 'Epst' and ISBN in the footer), produced as evidence with a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp. The text, Chapter 28 titled 'The Espionage Source,' analyzes Edward Snowden's relationship with Russian intelligence, arguing that the Putin regime exfiltrated Snowden from Hong Kong because they viewed him as a valuable 'espionage source.' The author contends that Snowden's disillusionment with the NSA made him a prime target for exploitation by Russian services.
