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.

U.S. Ambassador to Kuwait at the 1991 liberation; per John Kiriakou, "one of the finest men I've ever worked for anywhere in the world"; led the reopening of the U.S. embassy in Kuwait City on Liberation Day with the cable "American Embassy Kuwait City is now open for business"; famously complained that he could not stop Kuwaitis from writing pro-American graffiti on the side of the embassy.
Edward “Skip” Gnehm was the U.S. Ambassador to Kuwait at the time of the February 1991 liberation. Per John Kiriakou: “One of the finest men I’ve ever worked for anywhere in the world. … He loved Kuwait as much as he loved the United States.”[1][2]
Liberation Day
Gnehm led the reopening of the U.S. embassy in Kuwait City. Per Kiriakou, the first cable he sent read: “American Embassy Kuwait City is now open for business.” Kiriakou: “Just reading that sentence made me think, ‘We’ve won.’”[3][4]
The pro-American graffiti problem
Per Kiriakou, Gnehm said once — a line that “stuck in my mind all these 35 years” — “I have a problem that’s unique among American ambassadors anywhere in the world. I can’t get people to stop writing pro-American graffiti on the side of the embassy.”[1][5]
Kiriakou has also named Gnehm, alongside John Negroponte, as one of the ambassadors he worked for over the course of his career.[6]
