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 operations course graduation
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words

The end of CIA field training: a graduation ceremony at which the whole class wore full disguises for the photograph, and a certificate that is itself classified and therefore cannot be displayed — it stays in the officer's personnel file.
The operations course graduation closed John Kiriakou’s field training at the Farm, and did so in character.
The whole class wore complete disguises to the ceremony, and took the graduation photograph in them. Kiriakou calls it hilarious and says he still has the pictures.[1]
What graduates receive is a certificate recording that they are a graduate of the operations course, accelerated — which, being classified, cannot be displayed anywhere and stays in the personnel file.[1]
Kiriakou’s reaction was uncomplicated pride: “Wow, I’m actually a spy now. I’m a spy and I have the certificate to prove it.”[2]
He places the whole course above everything else he did in training — “this was the best training course I ever had in my life” — notwithstanding the knee he lost to it.[1]
Sleeping arrangements
One detail of the Farm’s hierarchy amused him. The facility is over a thousand acres and holds analysts and operations trainees at the same time who need never encounter one another except in the officers’ club afterwards. But because the operations trainees carried weapons, they got their own rooms; the analysts had to share.[3]
