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.

Twenty-five-year Secret Service veteran; founder and first director of the Secret Service Intelligence Division; later, after a forced retirement, a CIA contractor specializing in Greek terrorism; close colleague of John Kiriakou in Athens. Started his career at the end of the Eisenhower administration, was in Dallas with President Kennedy, and was effectively removed from the Secret Service after Sara Jane Moore's 1975 attempt on President Ford — having interviewed Moore two weeks earlier on a threatening letter she had sent.
Mike Mastrovito was a twenty-five-year Secret Service veteran, the founder and first director of the Secret Service Intelligence Division, and — after his forced retirement from the Service following the 1975 Sara Jane Moore assassination attempt on President Ford — a CIA contractor specializing in Greek terrorism. Per John Kiriakou, Mastrovito was “an awesome human being” and his close colleague during Kiriakou’s Athens tour.[1][2]
Secret Service career
Mastrovito’s Secret Service career spanned from the end of the Eisenhower administration through 1975. “He was in Dallas with Kennedy.” He kept a scrapbook of his service history.[2]
He convinced Secret Service leadership to create an Intelligence Division and became its first director. “For a while it was just him. He was the Intelligence Division.” Any threatening letter sent to the White House was routed to him personally.[2][3]
End of the career
In September 1975 a threatening letter from Sara Jane Moore reached his desk. Mastrovito flew to San Francisco, interviewed her at her apartment, and got her verbal promise that she would not harm President Ford. Two weeks later Moore was on a San Francisco street with a .44 and fired at Ford. Ford survived. Mastrovito was told: “It’s time for you to go.”[4][5]
Post-Secret Service: CIA contractor in Athens
Mastrovito subsequently became a CIA contractor specializing in Greek terrorism. He and Kiriakou worked closely together in Athens.[2]
