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.

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 two lawful procedures John Kiriakou describes for removing classified documents from a secure facility — a double-enveloped, double-marked package addressed to your home agency, or a leather bag with a double lock — and his flat statement that nothing about either allows a document to be forgotten in a garage for twelve years.
Carrying classified material out of a SCIF is, on John Kiriakou’s account, a deliberate and heavily marked act with exactly two permitted forms — which is why he rejects the idea that classified documents leave secure facilities by accident.[1]
The two methods
The first is packaging. “You have to put it in an envelope, seal it, mark the classification on the front and back of the envelope, put it in another envelope, seal it again, and then put the address of your home agency on it. And then you carry it with you — and God help you, you better not drop it or lose it or leave it somewhere.”[1][2]
The second is the courier bag: “your agency puts it in a leather bag with a double lock on it, and you put it in an envelope and then put the envelope in the leather bag and lock it and take it back to your agency.”[2]
Why it cannot be inadvertent
Against the official framing of the 2023 discoveries as inadvertent, Kiriakou set his own experience: “I’ve honestly never heard of somebody just walking out of a SCIF with classified documents and just kind of forgetting about it for, you know, 12 years, and just finding it in his garage in a box. That’s just not — that doesn’t happen in real life.”[3]
