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.
Julian Assange
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.
Russian gun-rights activist convicted in the United States of failing to register as a foreign agent; John Kiriakou cites her case as an example of the "process crime" of FARA violations, contrasting the severity of her 18-month solitary-confinement sentence with federal guidelines calling for 0-6 months.
Maria Butina is a Russian gun-rights activist convicted in the United States of failing to register as a foreign agent. John Kiriakou says Butina founded a small Russian gun club, akin to a miniature version of the NRA, and reached out to the American NRA to build ties after moving to the United States for graduate school.[1] He says he has spoken with her a number of times and is Facebook friends with her.[2] She was arrested and charged with failure to register as a foreign agent, which Kiriakou characterizes as a “process crime” rather than genuine espionage.[3] Kiriakou notes that Butina, a first-time offender for whom federal sentencing guidelines called for zero to six months, instead received 18 months in solitary confinement[4][5] — and that the United Nations deems any solitary confinement lasting more than two weeks to be a form of torture.[5]
