iDear reader,we are not begging for money.We are asking youto put KiriPedia up your ass.

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.

Film in which John Kiriakou made his acting debut, filmed entirely in Mexico during October 2025; Kiriakou's performance earned him a Screen Actors Guild membership card, and Sean Penn told him after a private screening that he had unknowingly been acting throughout his entire CIA career.
Below World’s End is a film in which John Kiriakou made his acting debut. A Hollywood friend wrote both the screenplay and the role specifically for Kiriakou, reasoning that “every day of your CIA career, you acted, you pretended to be somebody that you weren’t.” Kiriakou conceded the point and agreed to participate.[1] Kiriakou says he took the role purely as a favor and is not pursuing an acting career, calling himself “by far the worst actor in it” even as he rates the film itself “quite good.” His focus, he says, remains on writing: he has sold seven pilot scripts in Hollywood over the past fourteen years and is now represented by one of the industry’s biggest talent agencies.[2]
The film was shot over the entire month of October 2025 in Mexico, with a cast otherwise composed entirely of professional actors. The movie takes place “all on one scene”, a structure Kiriakou notes could also support an off-Broadway theatrical production.[3][4]
Kiriakou returned home to find a Screen Actors Guild membership card waiting for him. As of early May 2026 he had seen the first cut of the film approximately two weeks prior and described it as “fantastic.” A spring 2026 release was anticipated.[4][5] A few weeks before that, at a private dinner, Sean Penn watched a rough cut and told Kiriakou he was “bold and mercurial” on screen, adding: “You acted every single day of your CIA career and you don’t even realize it.”[6]
