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.

CIA/FBI Budget Fearmongering
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
John Kiriakou's account of how the FBI, under J. Edgar Hoover, pioneered the tactic of citing a shifting parade of enemies before Congress to justify annual budget increases — communists, anarchists, gangsters, beatniks, anti-war protesters — a tactic the CIA later adopted wholesale, citing "communism" until 2001 and "terrorism" since, without needing further explanation to win budget increases.
CIA/FBI budget fearmongering is John Kiriakou’s account of how both agencies have historically justified budget increases to Congress. He says the FBI has never had a budget cut in its history, crediting J. Edgar Hoover’s 48-year tenure for pioneering the tactic: appearing before the Appropriations committees every year and warning of coming catastrophes tied to a rotating cast of enemies — first anarchists, then communists, then fascists, then 1930s-era gangsters, then beatniks and drug users, then anti-war protesters.[1]
Kiriakou says the CIA saw what Hoover was doing and adopted the same playbook, telling Appropriations committees simply “communism, communism” until 2001 and “terrorism” ever since — needing no further explanation to secure what he calls monstrous budget increases, especially after 9/11.[2]
