Snowden Has More Secrets to Leak: What Are They?

Richard Snowden Arrest Charged

Glenn Greenwald, the Guardian journalist who broke the story of Snowden’s NSA leak, said there are “thousands” of newsworthy documents as yet unreleased in the possession of journalists as a result of Snowden’s leak. Greenwald told CBS news this week:

We are going to have a lot more significant revelations that have not yet been heard over the next several weeks and months

Greenwald also added that he and Snowden plan on pursuing every story presented by the documents, both published and unpublished.

But what exactly are these documents and what do their implication mean to the United States?

Already the media and public has been shocked by the amount and quality of information Snowden had access to at his low rank and security clearance. With the promise of more to come, I would not be surprised if the government was getting nervous.

Their article quotes Retired Gen. and former NSA director from 1995 until 2005 Michael Hayden as saying, “I suspect they have a very good idea of what he accessed on NSANet, the Agency IT system.”
