Patrick Bergy is an IT security specialist, former candidate for Supervisor of Elections, and PFC in the United States Army. After his honorable discharge from the military, he deployed around the world working as a military contractor providing IT support for the Department of Defense. One of Patrick’s most notable projects was in pioneering social media psychological warfare, also know as Interactive Internet Activities, or IIA, for the Department of Defense in 2008. This was at a time when social networks and smart phones were just taking off. Patrick understood the potential threat such capabilities posed for the very core of U.S. democracy, election integrity. He believed it was already being used by hostile foreign governments. Patrick has been speaking out since 2014, when he recognized its use in the Michael Brown incident which sparked riots in cities throughout the U.S. He has continued trying to get his message to the public to this day, even predicting the social media influence by hostile foreign governments in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, but his warnings were seemingly ignored. He published his first book, ‘Victim of the Swamp, how the “Deep State” Destroyed the 40 Year Old Private’ in September, 2017.
