The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence says that NSA contractor Edward Snowden is not a whistleblower, but rather is a “serial exaggerator and fabricator” who is in league with Russian intelligence and “caused tremendous damage to national security.”
According to a newly declassified, but heavily redacted, report by the committee, “the public narrative popularized by Snowden and his allies is rife with falsehoods, exaggerations, and crucial omissions, a pattern that began before he stole 1.5 million sensitive documents.”
