This document, page 149 of a House Oversight production, details the 2010 FBI arrest of Russian sleeper agents (the 'Illegals Program') and the subsequent compromise of the CIA's mole, Poteyev. It describes concerns within the NSA regarding potential SVR penetration at Fort Meade and the logistical impossibility of vetting all employees against insider threats. The text explains how an FBI sting operation against agent Anna Chapman inadvertently revealed Poteyev's identity, necessitating his urgent exfiltration from Russia to the U.S. via Belarus.
