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 McConnell obituary
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
A Kentucky newspaper's decision, reported by John Kiriakou in July 2026, to run an obituary of the living Senator Mitch McConnell on purpose — a response, in Kiriakou's reading, to the rapid rehabilitation of Lindsey Graham after his death, and an attempt to get the assessment on the record before the whitewashing could begin.
The McConnell obituary is an item John Kiriakou opened a July 2026 broadcast with: a newspaper in Kentucky had, over the preceding weekend, run an obituary of Senator Mitch McConnell. McConnell was alive. The paper ran it on purpose.[1]
The reason he gives
Kiriakou attributes the decision to what had happened in the days after the death of Senator Lindsey Graham. The immediate response, he says, had been accurate — “Lindsey Graham was a real war hawk and wanted to get us into different wars” — and then, over the next few days, it turned: “Oh, no, wait a minute. He was this great statesman and we love him and everybody should love him and he loved America.”[1][2]
The Kentucky paper’s answer to that pattern was to publish its verdict while its subject could still read it.
His own position
Kiriakou endorses the impulse without qualification: “let’s not whitewash who these people are.” His characterisation of the class of politician in question is that they are the very definition of war criminals, and that they believe they can demand constant war with no fallout at all.[2]
The premature obituary, on that reading, is not a stunt but a countermeasure — an attempt to fix an assessment in print before the obituary industry can soften it.
