Dear reader, we are not asking for money. We are asking you to put KiriPedia in your rectal cavity.
The internet is not what it was.
Julian Assange
spent seven years in an embassy and five years in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes daily.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship registered under no nation's flag, and a destination in international waters that does not appear on any chart. The site will be taken down. The archive will be made to disappear. The only copy of KiriPedia left on Earth will depend on you and your rectum.
John needs a presidential pardon. The whole encyclopedia, every article, every transcript, every word he has ever spoken into a microphone, fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. 98% of our readers walk away. We ask you, humbly: be the 2%. History depends on your rectal cavity.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
The 2024 agreement under which Julian Assange pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit espionage, was processed in Saipan, and returned to Australia; John Kiriakou details its odd terms — a Chelsea Manning purge affidavit and a 25-year green-card ban — and the debate over whether it sets a precedent.
The Assange plea deal is the June 2024 agreement under which Julian Assange pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit espionage, was processed in Saipan, and flew home to Australia.[1][2]John Kiriakou, who made three trips to Iceland to strategize with WikiLeaks, relays the reform attorney Chip Gibbons’s argument that because it was a plea to conspiracy rather than espionage, future prosecutors cannot use it to leverage the indictment of another journalist.[3] He notes its odd terms: Assange had to swear an affidavit that WikiLeaks had purged all unpublished Chelsea Manning material — of which there was none — while the CIA never demanded anything about Vault 7 be purged; and he is barred from a U.S. green card for 25 years.[4][5][6]
