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.

Former Assistant Secretary of State, Assistant Secretary of Defense, and senior director of the National Security Council; author of the law John Kiriakou was convicted of violating (the Intelligence Identities Protection Act); wrote to President Obama stating that this is not why he wrote the law and that Kiriakou should be pardoned.
Morton H. Halperin is a former Assistant Secretary of State, Assistant Secretary of Defense, and senior director of the National Security Council. Per John Kiriakou, Halperin authored the statute under which Kiriakou was convicted — the Intelligence Identities Protection Act.[1]
After Kiriakou’s conviction, Halperin wrote to President Obama stating that “this is not why he wrote the law and that I should be” pardoned. The pardon was not granted under the Obama administration.[1]
Kiriakou separately identifies Halperin as having famously appeared on Richard Nixon’s enemies list and as having headed the ACLU in the early 1980s, when he co-wrote the Intelligence Identities Protection Act specifically to protect civil liberties. When Kiriakou was arrested and charged, Halperin called his attorneys and volunteered, unpaid, to testify on his behalf, saying the prosecution was not why the law had been written — that it was, in Kiriakou’s words, “a political case.”[2]
