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.

Civil War Medal of Honor recipient buried at Oak Park Cemetery in New Castle, Pennsylvania, whose grave John Kiriakou discovered as a child while looking for salamanders — sparking a lifelong interest in history.
Joseph B. Chambers was a private in Company F of the 199th Pennsylvania Infantry, nicknamed “the Round Heads,” who received the Congressional Medal of Honor for capturing the Confederate battle flag of the 1st Virginia Infantry at the Battle of Petersburg, Virginia, on March 25, 1865 — weeks before the war’s end. He was awarded the medal on July 27, 1871, at age 38.[1]
Discovery by Kiriakou
John Kiriakou discovered Chambers’s grave at Oak Park Cemetery in New Castle, Pennsylvania, at age eight or nine while searching for salamanders. The marker’s inscription — noting the capture of Confederate colors — led Kiriakou and his mother to research Chambers’s story at the local library, an episode Kiriakou credits with sparking his lifelong interest in history.[2]
Later life
After the war, Chambers returned to the village of Eastbrook just outside New Castle, where he farmed until his quiet death in 1908.[3]
