did seven years in an embassy and five in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes every day.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship with no flag, and a destination on no chart. The website goes down. The archive vanishes. History depends on your rectal cavity.
The whole encyclopedia (every article, every transcript, every word John has ever spoken into a microphone) fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. In you.
John did 23 months in federal prison. As a convicted felon he is still barred from voting, from keeping and bearing arms, and from the federal pension he earned over 14 years at the CIA. A pardon restores all three.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
KiriPedia is not a nonprofit. Honestly, this isn't even about the money.

Bahrain fishing officer demarche
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
Kiriakou's account of serving, while stationed in Bahrain, as the embassy's econ officer and by extension its fishing, banking, aviation, and environment officer — including delivering a formal U.S. demarche to Bahrain's deputy foreign minister over a U.S.-Canada dispute about whether clams legally count as fish.
The Bahrain fishing officer demarche is an anecdote John Kiriakou tells about his posting in Bahrain, where as the embassy’s sole econ officer he was also, by default, its fishing, banking, aviation, and environment officer. In that capacity he was tasked with delivering a formal demarche — a diplomatic protest — to Bahrain’s deputy foreign minister, Ambassador Ghazi Algosaibi, over a U.S.-Canada dispute about whether clams legally count as fish.[1] The U.S. position, he says, was that clams are fish because they move more than 10 feet a day by opening and closing their shells, while Canada argued they are shellfish whose movement is aided by ocean currents rather than their own locomotion. The dispute grew serious enough, per Kiriakou, that the U.S. sent a naval vessel off the coast of western Canada.[2]
