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 Washington Post reporter who, in John Kiriakou's account of the Gary Webb affair, took the CIA's side of the cocaine story and put it on the paper's front page, wrong, and Kiriakou believes knowingly so.
Walter Pincus appears in John Kiriakou’s account of the destruction of Gary Webb as the specific mechanism by which the CIA’s denial reached print.
Describing how the Washington Post and the New York Times responded to Dark Alliance, Kiriakou says the two papers “essentially said on their front pages that Gary Webb had made the entire story up”, and names the reporter: “Walter pinkus an esteemed reporter for the Washington Post got the side of the CIA and put that on the very front page of the Washington Post saying that none of this was true this was just an anti- CIA uh tie raade and that nobody should pay any attention to it.”[1]
His judgement follows immediately, and distinguishes error from complicity: “well Pinkus was wrong Pinkus probably knew he was wrong but published anyway the bottom line here is that both the Washington Post and the New York Times leapt as quickly as they could to the defense of the CIA.”[2]
