Patrick Bergy Returns Again (New Dec 6 2024)

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. EARLY YEARS - Patrick Bergy was
born in 1965, and raised on a small farm in Alto, Michigan. His
Father, Bruce Bergy, managed a grain mill that had been in their
family for over 75 years. Patrick had two older sisters, Lori and
Linda. His mother, Ruth, remarried following his parent's divorce
at a very early age, and has remained largely disassociated from
his life since his teens. Patrick married his first wife at the age
of 30, and has four children from the marriage whom he loves very
much. His daughters, Mia, and Sarah, and twin sons, Bruce and
James. He was divorced in 2010 following several years of
deployments overseas, and his personal struggle with combat related
PTSD. He acknowledges things in his life got a little crazy after
the divorce from his first wife, was married briefly to his Russian
wife, Zhanna, shortly after that, and remains separated from his
third wife from Thailand, Khwanchanok, now going on two years. He
now has a dog!
