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.
Founder of the online marketplace Silk Road, sentenced to life plus 75 years before being pardoned by President Trump; John Kiriakou met Ulbricht's mother and sister two weeks before the pardon and calls the length of the original sentence a sickening miscarriage of justice.
Ross Ulbricht is the founder of the online marketplace Silk Road. John Kiriakou says Ulbricht received a sentence of “life plus 75 years” — which he calls “some draconian sentence” — before President Trump pardoned him.[1]
Kiriakou says he met Ulbricht’s mother and sister two weeks before the pardon and told them he wanted to have them on his podcast because “this entire story is so sickening and it’s such a miscarriage of justice.” He notes their advocacy campaign — t-shirts, hashtags, a sustained push across podcasts — culminated in the pardon, which gave Kiriakou hope for clemency in his own circumstances.[1]
