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.

Jack Devine
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
A former CIA officer John Kiriakou worked for briefly in 2001 or 2002, and describes with real warmth as a great officer and a true believer — while flatly rejecting his insistence that the agency was never involved with cocaine. Asked to choose between Devine and a thirty-year DEA veteran who agrees with him, Kiriakou picks the DEA man.
Jack Devine is a former CIA officer and, briefly, one of John Kiriakou’s superiors. Kiriakou’s account of him is a study in liking a man and rejecting his testimony.
“I had the good fortune to work for Jack Devine briefly in 2001 or 2002. Great guy, great officer, true believer in the CIA and the belief that the CIA is the good guy. God bless him.”[1]
The disagreement
Devine, Kiriakou notes, “insists adamantly” that the agency was never involved with cocaine — where Sheriff David Hathaway, who spent thirty years at the Drug Enforcement Administration including in senior management, agrees with Kiriakou entirely.[2]
Asked directly who is right: “I think the sheriff is right. I think Jack Devine is wrong.”[1]
On how a good officer comes to be wrong about it: “I think he’s either wilfully wrong, or just pretending — like Sergeant Schultz used to say on Hogan’s Heroes: he knows nothing. Nothing. But I think the evidence is out there that the CIA was facilitating the importation of cocaine.”[3]
