I made a short video to introduce myself and what I’m building here. If you’ve been reading the case files and wondering who’s behind them — or if someone just shared this with you and you’re trying to figure out what The Exhausted Moderate actually is — this is where to start.

My name is Brian. I’m a veteran, a lifelong fiscal conservative, and someone who is genuinely exhausted by the choice we’re all being handed: pick a side or shut up. I picked a third option — pull the primary documents, score the claims against real sources, and write what the evidence actually shows. No team. No ads. No algorithm. Just me, doing the work.

In this video I’ll walk you through why I started this project, what changed when I moved from The Center to The Exhausted Moderate, and what I’m covering right now — from a war in Iran launched without congressional approval, to the DOJ grading its own exam on the Epstein files, to $10 billion pledged to an organization one man chairs for life with no appropriation anyone can identify.
