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 forecast John Kiriakou volunteers against himself — that asked in a post-election interview alongside Thomas Drake and Jesselyn Radack whether whistleblowers would fare better or worse under Donald Trump, he alone answered that nothing could be worse than Barack Obama, and was wrong.
The MintPress prediction is a forecast John Kiriakou raises unprompted and against himself. Shortly after the 2016 election the outlet interviewed him, Thomas Drake and the Justice Department whistleblower Jesselyn Radack, putting the same question to each: were things going to get better or worse for whistleblowers under Donald Trump?[1]
He flags his own answer before giving it. “I said — I was the only one who said this, and I was foolish and wrong in retrospect — but I said, I can’t imagine a scenario where anything could be worse than Barack Obama. I can’t imagine that Donald Trump would be worse.”[1][2]
The correction is four words long: “And then Donald Trump was worse.” What limited it, on his account, was arithmetic rather than restraint — “the only thing that saved us from Trump was the fact that he was only in office for four years.”[2]
He keeps the concession separate from his position on Obama, which the same conversation states at its harshest: eight Espionage Act prosecutions of people who spoke to the press, against three in the ninety-two years before, “nearly three times the number of all US presidents combined. That was not an accident.”[3]
