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.

The Mariel boatlift comparison

John Kiriakou's rebuttal to the claim that Venezuela emptied its prisons and mental institutions into the United States: nothing of the kind has been shown to have happened, and the episode being described actually belongs to Cuba, which did exactly that during the Mariel boatlift.
Responding to the claim that Venezuela had emptied its prisons and mental institutions and sent the occupants north, John Kiriakou rejected the factual premise while granting that the story has an original. “None of what he said related to the emptying of prisons and mental institutions and sending people to the United States, none of that is true. That was true of the Cubans in 1978 and 1979 and the Mariel boatlift, where the Cubans really did empty their prisons and their mental institutions and put them on boats and send them to Florida. There’s no evidence that that’s ever happened coming from Venezuela.”[1][2]
The dates as spoken are 1978 and 1979; the Mariel boatlift took place in 1980, and the discrepancy is preserved here rather than corrected.[2]
