iDear reader,we are not begging for money.We are asking youto put KiriPedia up your ass.
Julian Assange
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.

What John Kiriakou says his own Senate Foreign Relations Committee investigation found about drug trafficking through Venezuela — that it exists, that it consists of Colombian aircraft landing there en route to Africa, and that there is no evidence Nicolás Maduro controls it or knows when and where it happens.
“The US has long accused Maduro of drug trafficking,” he says. “I did an investigation when I was the senior investigator on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and part of that investigation was drug trafficking through Venezuela.”[1]
His first finding concedes the premise in part: “there is some drug trafficking through Venezuela.” His second removes what the accusation depends on: “that is not to say that Maduro controls it or even has any idea when and where it’s happening.”[1]
What he found instead was a transit route belonging to someone else. “What it is, is Colombian drug planes landing in Venezuela to, you know, pick up, to drop off, unload, who knows, and then continuing on to Africa.”[1][2]
His conclusion is about the certainty being claimed rather than about the trade: “it’s not clear-cut like the administration wants you to think it is.”[2]
