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.

The denials after Dallas
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
John Kiriakou's account, drawn from CIA historical files he read as a junior analyst, of how fast foreign governments moved to clear themselves after the assassination of John F. Kennedy: the Soviets came to the Americans within minutes, the Chinese did the same, and the Cubans asked the Mexicans to pass on that it was not them.
The denials after Dallas is John Kiriakou’s account of how quickly foreign governments moved to clear themselves after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and the reason he gives for doubting that a foreign service would attempt such a thing.
What the files showed
Kiriakou explains that the CIA keeps its historical documents open to junior analysts, who can simply go through them to get a sense of what a period was like.[1]
What those files recorded was a scramble. The Soviets came to the Americans within minutes of Kennedy being killed, saying “we swear to God it wasn’t us, we swear it wasn’t us.” The Chinese did the same thing. The Cubans asked the Mexicans to tell the Americans that it was not them.[1]
Why he tells it
He raised the episode in July 2024 when asked how much credit to give the idea that a foreign adversary, China, Russia or Iran, had been behind the shooting at Butler. His answer was that it was unlikely, and the historical record of the denials is the reason: killing an American presidential candidate is a trigger for world war, and no service considers the blowback worth it.[2][3]
His second reason is professional. A foreign service that had decided to do it would not leave the work to a twenty-year-old, would not attempt it from 145 yards, and would not use an AR-15. It would use a professional sniper at five hundred or eight hundred yards, too far away to be seen, “and he’s not going to miss.”[3]
