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.
The proposal John Kiriakou says was already being discussed with the British in 1992 or 1993 — an American domestic intelligence service on the MI5 pattern, without arrest powers, feeding what it collected on citizens to the FBI — and which he believes the post-January 6 legislation would finally deliver.
The MI5 model is John Kiriakou’s name for a proposal he says he first heard discussed inside the agency in the early 1990s, and which he expected the domestic-terrorism legislation drafted after 6 January 2021 to deliver at last. Pressed in February 2021 on a bill that created new domestic terrorism units inside the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI rather than any new offence, his answer was that the idea was not new: “that’s been discussed since the early 1990s.”[1]
“On my very first trip to London as a CIA officer — I’d been to London many times, of course, but on my first trip as a CIA officer — we talked with MI5 about their duties as a domestic intelligence service. MI6 is famously the foreign intelligence service. MI5 does only domestic intelligence. They don’t have the power to arrest, but they don’t need to arrest anybody. That’s what Scotland Yard is for.”
The American application was on the table in the same conversations. “The discussions way back then — I mean, this must have been 1992 or 1993 — we were talking about setting a similar thing up in the United States, either parallel to the FBI or as a part of the FBI, that would just spy on American citizens and then provide that intelligence to the FBI to effect arrests.”[2]
What he draws from the gap is that the design outlasted every justification offered for it: “here we are all these years later, 30 years later, and it looks like it’s gonna come to pass.”[2][3]
