> They said no communications existed - and now suddenly they have one. There's no contradiction at all. He said he sent emails of a certain category. NSA still says they have no emails of that category—but they do have an email of a different sort, asking a procedural question. NSA probably has lots of emails from Snowden on file, after all. What they've said (and continue to maintain) is that they don't have any reflecting a concern (edit: typo fix) over these programs. The email they released from him certainly doesn't show any concern. Seriously, read the actual question: "I am not entirely certain, but this does not seem correct, as it seems to imply that Executive Orders have the same precedence as law." This is hardly anything even approaching a hard charge of misconduct being done. Especially so given that the General Counsel announced that they agreed with Snowden's interpretation, "That said, you are correct that E.O.s cannot override a statute."
