The American Left continues its assault on the 2nd Amendment, despite its legal antics continually being ruled as unconstitutional. What's really behind the Gun Control Agenda?

#China's President Xi Jinping appears to be more emboldened to push his aggressive agenda aimed at military and economic dominance in the Pacific with an eye toward the entire globe. This comes on the heels of the CCP Chief's recent re-election to the aforementioned post. Will Xi try to overtake Taiwan? What do we make of his plans to replace the U.S. Dollar as the currency of choice for international oil transactions? What has President Xi learned about U.S. and Western leadership through their handling of the Russia-Ukraine conflict? Are we in the midst of a Cold War 2.0 with China?Project Sentinel President LTC Tony Shaffer, London Center for Policy Research Senior Fellow Gordon Chang (Author, "The Coming Collapse of China") and Major General John Kem explore these questions and break down how the U.S. needs to deal with a potentially more aggressive #CCP.

On November 15, 2022, former President Donald Trump made the announcement many expected: he will run once again for the office he held between January 2017 and January 2021. This time around, President Trump faces new and different challenges to this endeavor. Aside from the continues assaults from the Democrats and media, the real estate mogul also needs to contend with a Republican establishment more prepared for battle, questions about his age and his own bombastic approach to campaigning, which worked in 2016 but perhaps caused some issues in 2020. Project Sentinel President LTC Tony Shaffer and Senior Fellow Jay Homnick discuss what President Trump needs to do to win the 2024 election and after taking office.Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

While things have not gone quite as planned for Vladimir Putin in Ukraine, the Russian President has taken up to threatening the use of tactical nuclear weapons on the former Soviet Republic. If Putin actually makes good on his posturing, how should the U.S. respond and can the current administration be trusted to take the right course of action considering it could determine whether China might or might not feel free to move in on Taiwan?

Why is it we see politicians continue to directly lie to their constituents, even with evidence to the contrary revealed prominently to the same people -- and why, despite such proof debunking those claims, do people continue to believe them? To quote an old phrase: "Because they can." This is because many in the nation have been gaslit to believe whatever the State tells them without desire to question the established narrative with the help of a complicit mainstream news outlets and large social media companies. In this edition of Thought to Action, LTC Tony Shaffer talks with Dan Shyti, author of American Gaslighting: How America Is Taught to Hate Itself, Shyti discusses how the political monolith in Washington, Big Media and Big Tech companies have worked together to push established narratives, create a population where a loud half unconditionally believe them and the squashing of anyone who questions such authority and their falsehoods. This is where we get the mass amount of people who believed the Jussie Smollet hoax, the Russian Collusion hoax, denied the existence of Hunter Biden's hard drive, refuse to question why the Epstein Customer Ledger was never released and think the economy as it currently stands is cause for celebration. Shyti breaks down how people have been systematically gaslit to the point where they fear and shout down anything which pokes any holes into the collective worldview to which they were told to adhere.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

The U.S. Military is in the midst of a recruitment crisis and reports have indicated major morale issues within, which have been attributed to the woke social engineering policies re-established by the Biden Administration. As tensions mount between the US and Russia (as well as with China), the talk or another world war has been taken seriously by many. If this happens and the current state of our military recruitment problems persist, what are the chances of the US having to initiate a draft and what will happen if the nation does so? Our panel from the London Center for Policy Research examines this question from a viewer during our August 2022 Ask Us Anything session, which is available in its entirety to members of our channel and of our Patreon Community: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoaction
Recently, the FBI's raid of President Donald Trump's home has raised serious questions about government overreach and the selective use of the FBI and other 3-letter government organizations (CIA, IRS and DOJ) against political opponents, quite similar to the old Soviet-style suppression of dissident opinions. This is a blatant abuse of power wielded by the administration establishment and Congressional Democrats, not unnoticed by potential voters, Trump's supporters and some of his longtime adversaries (including New York's former Governor Andrew Cuomo). While President Trump has excellent lawyers on his side, how could a regular citizen without those resources fight back?On this edition of Thought to Action, we break down what happened, why and go deeper into how this is not new (remember Roger Stone? Jerome Corsi? The Obama Administration's use of the IRS to go after Conservative groups?) and seemingly embedded in the overall agenda of today's established Washington powerful. We also discuss what needs to be done to hold those who abuse their political power to stifle opposition accountable. We also look into the real reasons behind President Biden's and Congressional Democrats' insistence on underhandedly passing the appointment of 87,000 new IRS agents in a reconciliation package.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

After years of "Defund the Police" chants, disrespect to rank-and-file police officers, officers not being backed by their cities' elected officials, mass quitting by personnel and constant media hit-pieces, law enforcement is in a difficult state overall. Making matters worse, Far-Left City and Blue-State Attorneys General, Legislators and Executives have severely weakened law enforcement on the proprietorial end. From the Newsom/Cuomo/Hochul cashless bail/less enforcement policies to people like George Soros-supported Manhattan AG Alvin Bragg, who refuses to prosecute certain crimes, the political law enforcement leadership arm is truly lacking in quality and desire to support the rank-and-file.The London Center for Policy Research in this edition of Thought to Action examines how we got here, why it's happening and what needs to be done to solve the leadership problem in law enforcement today.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

The United States of America had arguably the top Intelligence community in the world for decades. As we all know, the quality of such units' work comes down to how experienced and formidable the leadership performs and runs their respective departments. There was a time when top-notch and highly-skilled veterans of the field were promoted to run the FBI, CIA and related organizations through their own merits and solid backgrounds. During many of the more recent presidential administrations, positions atop some of the most important national security-entrusted organizations have gone to political patrons who have spent their careers as pencil-pushing bureaucrats. Reflecting that, CIA Director William Burns recently patted himself on the back, saying he was "proud" of the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal at a conference in Aspen. The result has been a continued downward spiral in the quality of our intelligence community while administration big-wigs pat themselves on the back about how woke their recruitment ads and equity programs have been.The London Center for Policy Research takes a deep dive into how we got to this point and what needs to be done to re-solidify our intelligence agencies and restore a high-level of trust in national security in the United States.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

The term "Culture Wars" may be easily dismissed by some, but they are quite real and affect out everyday lives. The US, UK and other Western governments have attempted to whittle away individual freedoms and rights, publicly shame (and sometimes prosecute) free thinkers, change/control language and manipulate the Free World's economies to the downward spiral they are in today to more easily push an authoritarian globalist agenda, indoctrinate young people with a Leftist collective agenda. Can we beat these powerful people? Perhaps so, even though the Far Left has fully infiltrated academia, public education, major media outlets, the entertainment industry and Big Tech. They use scare tactics like "Global Warming/Climate Change will end the world (again)" or "(Insert wrongthinker here) is a racist (or bigot, anti-gay, Master of Hate and Destruction) to manipulate or silence a population into a more obedient lot. Who is fighting back? More people than you realize. They come from all over: working families, small business owners, grass-roots activists, concerned parents as well as rockers and entertainers who won't be forced into silence.The London Center for Policy Research has started this Culture Wars Salon series; for our second installment, we have invited music stars Cherie Currie (Recording artist, formerly of the Runaways - as well as stellar chainsaw sculptor) and Jennie Matthias (The Belle Stars, solo recording artist and charity leader) to discuss the Culture Wars of today with LCPR President LTC Tony Shaffer and host Chris Cordani, the weapons, how they affect all of us and fighting back - perhaps we are the insurgency.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

On July 14, 2022, Marine Sgt. Herschel "Woody" Williams was laid to rest at the U.S. Capital as an honor to his service and heroics at Iwo Jima in World War 2. Sgt. Williams was also the last World War 2 Medial of Honor recipient. While LCPR President LTC Tony Shaffer explores Williams' life and heroics with biographer Dr. Bryan Mark Rigg, author of FLAMETHROWER, they also delve into the political controversy surrounding the Marine's well-earned award.In addition, LTC Shaffer and Dr. Rigg go into a deeper conversation about the atrocities of the Imperial Japanese, which were arguably as bad or worse than their Nazi allies and the Soviets yet left out of the history books.

While working on alternatives to fossil fuels in the future is a noble and practical approach, the current crop of "Green Agenda" politicians are pushing ideas which either are not working, not ready for prime-time or ignore truly efficient and clean potential sources. We hear "America needs to switch to wind turbines, ethanol, renewable energy sources and people must drive electric cards by (insert UN/WEF-inspired year here)," as pols rush in most likely to pad their legacies, their campaign accounts and investments to show how they are doing something to promote "going green." They, however, ignore the glaring lack of readiness, the need to use fossil fuels to operate many of these clean-green turbines or electric car charging stations or that there is a perfectly clean non-petroleum-based power sector developing quite well, albeit not a Greta-approved money-making plan like the Biden Administration or the World Economic Forum have been pushing.The London Center for Policy Research explores the constant failures of the Green Agenda, why powerful politicians, lobbyists, media apologists and energy-rationing advocates have been pushing while presenting a truly viable solution in this edition of Thought to ActionIf you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

It did not take long for New York Governor Kathy Hochul and the state's Democratic Legislative majority to react to the Supreme Court's striking down of its unconstitutional and often abused concealed carry permit restrictions with new laws doubling down on their party's national gun control agenda. The new laws will impose a statewide database on firearms and ammunition possession, regular government checks on gun owners and a long list of "no-gun zones," where criminals know no law-abiding citizen will ever be armed. This collective and hasty response to the New York State Pistol & Rifle Association v. Bruen decision raises more Constitutional concerns; the London Center for Policy Research examines them.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

Cryptocurrencies have grown in popularity within all generations of investors as the potential for both massive growth and financial disaster looms for this new financial sector. In recent weeks, Bitcoin (the de facto measuring stick cryptocurrency) has seen its value tumble around $10,000 in value between June 6 and 24th amid a period of high inflation and a coming recession. Still, many investors continue to take the risk in anticipation of stellar rewards.Despite cryptocurrencies' roller coaster when it comes to value, London Center for Policy Research Fellow and Financial Expert Tim Furey discusses other issues with the Bitcoins, Dogecoins and Etheriums of the world alongside LCPR President Tony Shaffer including:What are the national security implications of cryptocurrencies?What's stopping governments from taking control of them?What are the advantages and disadvantages to investing in a non-tangible currency with potentially arbitrary value?Where is the faith in credit when it comes to cryptocurrencies?If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

As the Biden Administration and its cohorts in the Washington Left have continued milking school shooting tragedies to push their collective gun control agenda, it would seem some Republicans in Congress are buying in to some of the rhetoric. Much of what has been discussed concerns what are referred to as "red flag laws." On the surface, it seems like a reasonable idea: most people would equate this with "keeping firearms out of the hands of people who are mentally ill and have shows signs of wanting to perpetrate a mass murder." While that makes for a nice headline, it's time for an honest discussion about the potential abuse by powerful politicians and cronies who wield economic as well as social power. If "red flag" firearms ownership laws are passed, who decides the parameters for a "mentally ill" label? Does anyone really trust a government who has seen a Presidential administration from 2009-2016 which used the IRS as a weapon against political opponents to have such power? Does anyone believe politicians who recently encouraged violence against Supreme Court Justices to decide who loses their gun rights? There are several potential abuses of power which could stem from any "red flag" laws aimed at limiting legal firearms possession by citizens and gaining more control over people's lives (perhaps a pre-cursor to a CCP-like Social Credit System). Wrongthink or disagreements with powerful entities could get someone red-flagged as well; we saw this in recent times when Google did that to a whilstle-blower who revealed the company's manipulation of information on its search engines. The London Center for Policy Research conducts an in-depth discussion, peeling back the superficial arguments and uncovering the potential consequences in this edition of Thought to Action.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

The world's elite wants to track and, eventually, control your energy use. If it sounds like a conspiracy theory, it is not: during the 2022 World Economic Forum Conference, Alibaba Group President J. Michael Evans boastfully announced technology is in the works to implement a system which would track private citizens' carbon footprint. To clarify, Evans proudly stated, “What does that mean? Where are they traveling? How are they traveling? What are they eating? What are they consuming on the platform?”Couple Evans' comments with WEF cohort Australian eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, who suggested a "re-calibration" of free speech and dissension in the internet, the Davos Elite will steamroll the world to implement its "Great Reset."This isn't new: Americans are being tracked constantly, yet voluntarily, via the use of EZ-Pass, some internet search engines, GPS and insurance-company-insured dash-cams. While US citizens did push back on a past attempt to instill a centralized medical data system on the internet, the WEF and Western Leftists are counting on populations to give them more control over their lives in exchange for both security and convenience.In this installment of the London Center for Policy Research's Great Reset Roundtable, our panel discusses continued efforts to control the world's population and undermine the freer societies to force their concentration of power and how to fight back.If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

As Twitter's censorship and manipulative practices as well as the U.S. government's attempt to control the flow of information continue to be exposed, rather than admitting what happened, taking responsibility, Big Tech and the Biden Administration doubled down on their continued suppression of ideas, facts and discussion certain political factions fear being exchanged. While such powerful entities attempted to derail objective truth (i. e. discussion about the Biden Laptop, the Durham investigation, election integrity issues, problems within the public school system, etc) and propping up established, yet false or questionable narratives (Russian/Trump collusion, The so-called "pee tape," Jussie Smollett, etc), the honest and inquisitive citizens find themselves making headway in the uphill battle against their stranglehold on social discourse. This is a problem mainly affecting conservative or center-right leaning thinkers not only in the policy community, but entertainers and many others are subject to being suspended or outright exiled from social media pages for the crime of "wrongthink."

As we remember our fallen soldiers on Memorial Day weekend and throughout the year, a hidden epidemic of plagues our living veteran community: suicides by those who served our country. While the media rarely discusses this, many U.S. military veterans commit or contemplate suicide every year. Why is this happening and how can we help these heroes who made sacrifices for their nation yet are suffering in silence? On this edition of Thought to Action, we at the London Center for Policy Research talk with leaders from the Fallen Soldiers March, Senior Advisor Warren Lamb, President Jim Retzke and Senior Advisor Julie Ganschow about the organization's work helping veterans who are at risk or contemplating taking their own lives through the inspiration of Christian faith and the care of those who work with the Fallen Soldiers March For more information about Fallen Soldiers March, visit their website: https://www.fallensoldiersmarch.com If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.

Yes, Twitter has been exposed as a manipulator of information and discourse as many have speculated, but that took a billionaire's buyout offer and delving into the company's dubious operational practices. Still, monied interests in mainstream and other social media gatekeepers continue their stranglehold on information and narratives. The battle for honest discourse, free discussion, and to end the censorship of information contradictory to dictated "conventional wisdom" needs to continue from the grass roots.Our panel from the London Center for Policy Research tackles a question from one of our viewers about how to keep challenging the Big Tech/Government's war on objective truth and collective control of digital as well as mainstream media entities.This video clip is part of our May 2022 Ask Us Anything session ;to see it in its entirety, please join our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoactionIf you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channelAlso, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPRThank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.For exclusive content, sneak previews and access to our full Ask Us Anything Sessions (and future live virtual events) - please join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoactionThought to Action is presented by the London Center for Policy Research https://www.londoncenter.org
Washington politicians have historically tried to gain power by finding ways to override or outright ignore the U.S. Constitution, which is why the nation's founders installed a Supreme Court. Former United States Attorney General Ed Meese joins our panel to discuss the prevailing debate over the past century-plus as to whether the Constitution must remain followed to the text and intent of its creators versus the assertion it is a "living, breathing document" which needs to change with the times: the fight between Constitutional Originalists vs. Judicial Activists. The current chaos over the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision (a clear violation of the 10th Amendment) is only one example of quite a few Supreme Court decisions pitting emotional and Constitutional arguments outside and within the SCOTUS chambers. The question is: should judicial activists have a place in the Supreme Court considering the duty of its justices is to protect, not conveniently interpret the US Constitution? For decades, legislators have tried to gain power by weakening the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 10th amendments on a regular basis; their bidding done eagerly by activists instilled in the Judicial body.On this edition of Thought to Action, our panel discusses the need for Constitutional originalists in the Supreme Court and how to instill such values in the next generation of judges and legislators. We explore cases, the need to continue nominating Constitutional Originalists and to promote the understanding to all in the U.S. that the right decision as per the law of the land will not always go someone's way, but protection of its foundation is paramount. We also discuss why it is important to keep politicians from attempting to pack the Supreme Court with extra ideological sycophants in the future via a Keep Nine Amendment.Our panelists:London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony ShafferLondon Center for Policy Research Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

A leaked draft of a possible majority opinion presented the possibility of a ruling in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization case negating – effectively overturning – the oft-debated Roe v. Wade decisions due to Constitutional Considerations has caused quite the political row. Despite the knee-jerk emotional reactions from the Far Left and early claims of victory from those who are anti-abortion, the true argument against the 1973 landmark SCOUTS decision is Constitutional: a violation of the 10th Amendment of the US Bill of Rights. Our panel from the Herb London Center for Policy Research delves into the true contestable issues surrounding the Roe v. Wade outcome. The seven Supreme Court Justices who voted in favor of the "Jane Roe" legal team justified their decision citing the 14th Amendment's "Due Process" statute while adding not allowing a women to have an abortion would violate that same amendment's declaration the government can not infringe on people's "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness." Of the two dissenting Justices, William Rehnquist argued the 14th amendment does not protect abortion (citing legal issues) while Justice Byron White says the decision violated the rights of states to set such laws (A10).

Elon Musk did what he said he would do: after an unjust suspension of the Babylon Bee account over a parody story, the Tesla founder bought Twitter and will take the company private after a transition period. The reaction all around has been predictable: those on the right consider this a victory for free speech while pundits and Blue Checkmarks on the Left are lamenting the end of free speech. While it's fun to watch, the London Center for Policy Research looks into what happens next and what can we realistically expect?On this special edition of Thought to Action, We look into:Project Veritas' posting of audio from the Twitter "All Hands On Deck" meeting led by CEO Parag Agarwal.The sudden change in Twitter followers for both Conservative and Liberal influencers virtually overnight leading to suspicions of engineered biased algorithms the company does not to be revealed to the publicWill there be a "mass exodus" or "insurgency of saboteurs" from some current Twitter employees?Will Musk clean house when he takes over?Why are left-leaning pundits going hysterical over this purchase?The irony of Adam Schiff saying Twitter will become a haven of "disinformation" when Musk takes control.Will Twitter allow people unjustly suspended over wrongthink be welcomed back on the Social Media platform?Also - what will Elon Musk do with the company on the business end?Our panel:LCPR President LTC Tony ShafferLCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

Like many activists on the Left, when bereft of intellectual arguments, those from the Gun Control agenda employ the use of triggering buzzwords to manipulate the emotions of voters who they are trying to influence. They are meant to invoke Pavlovian responses and perhaps mislead people about the debate over the Constitutional right to own firearms and defend oneself and one's property with them when necessary.On this edition of Thought to Action, London Center for Policy Research Senior Fellow and head of the Center's 2nd Amendment Project LTC (British Army, Ret.) Tim Wilson and LCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt. (Ret) Pete O'Brien break down some of these terms and the truth behind the Gun Control Agenda's condemnations of 2nd Amendment rights in the US including: "Ghost Guns," "Deadly Weapon," "Assault Rifle" and "High Capacity Magazines."

US President Joe Biden recently tried to get tough with Vladimir Putin as the Russians continue their assault on Ukraine. While sanctions have not worked, Biden has few cards to play in what could be considered a proxy US-Russia War on Ukraine grounds as he threatened to use strategic nuclear attacks on Russia until its nation's president pulls out. If this reminds many of the old US-USSR Cold War, the threats of mutually assured destruction, the idea that both superpowers never directly faced off, the old "arms race" and fighting through propaganda, you would be correct. On this edition of Thought to Action, our panel from the London Center for Policy Research looks at the recent posturing from the Biden Administration and the current state of nuclear strength levels of each nation:LCPR President LTC (Ret) Tony ShafferLCPR Senior Fellow LTC (British Army, Ret) Tim WilsonLCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

When politicians and gun control activists prepare to take aim at the U.S. Constitution's 2nd Amendment and citizens' right to defend themselves, they often perpetuate falsehoods and set up straw men to push their collective agenda. The 2nd Amendment is under fire from politicians who look lovingly at the gradual disarming of the public by the United Kingdom (which took nearly a century to accomplish) in hopes US citizens can be manipulated enough to allow the circumvention of the 2nd Amendment to the Bill of Rights.In this edition of Thought to Action, the London Center for Policy Research breaks down and debunks such mythology from the political establishment Left:LCPR 2nd Amendment Project Leader/Senior Fellow LTC (British Army, Ret) Tim WilsonLCPR President LTC (Ret) Tony ShafferLCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

American history consistently proves there are factions withing federal government which will do and say anything to remain in power while accomplishing as little as possible and real accountability as well as action comes from grass roots ideas and support. President Donald Trump's victory has inspired people who were not normally interested in politics to become more concerned with national, state, local and world issues or perhaps run for office from regional school boards to the U.S. Senate -- an example of the latter is our guest, North Carolina candidate Kenneth Harper. Harper talks with London Center for Policy Research President Tony Shaffer about his political journey and calling to run for office, his grass roots support among people in North Carolina, obstacles thrown at him by the state's political establishment and why the candidate says the upcoming elections are extremely important as the American Left, currently in power, has been punishing political opponents, stifling free speech and using their media allies to proverbially gag any dissenting views. Harper and LTC Shaffer discuss how the American people need to hold our government and its elected officials accountable for its actions to weaken America and circumvent the Constitution.Also, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spr...

While Russia continues its assault against Ukraine and the defending country keeps up its resistance, the Chinese Communist Party is watching the US and Western nations' arguably ineffective responses. President Xi has been looking to carry out his threat to annex Taiwan and perhaps sees the Biden Administration as a true, but short, window of opportunity to take the island nation under Chinese control. Still, is he going to pounce soon while nobody's looking or continue a "wait and see" approach as Putin's maneuvers and the consequences unfold?Our panel delves into the possible scenarios:London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony ShafferLondon Center for Policy Research Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

While he thought invading Ukraine would have been a bit easier, Vladimir Putin likely did not expect the resolve of the nation's people and President Zelenskyy's masterful skills to sway world public opinion. In this edition of Thought to Action, the London Center for Policy Research delves into the invasion from a strategic point of view: What did Putin really expect?Where did he miscalculate?Are the Russians ready for a long period of insurgency should Putin take control of Ukraine?Is Putin's game plan akin to a Cold War strategy and obsolete?Did Putin not learn the lessons of Afghanistan from when both the US and USSR occupied the nation?Also, visit our Thought to Action Teespring Store: https://my-store-10084335.creator-spring.com/ Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.Or, please feel free to make a contribution here: https://givebutter.com/london-center-...For exclusive content, sneak previews and access to our full Ask Us Anything Sessions (and future live virtual events) - please join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoaction Thought to Action is presented by the London Center for Policy Research https://www.londoncenter.org
Over the past two weeks, the Biden Administration has been quick to blame high gas prices and skyrocketing inflation on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. While they are relying on Americans having very short memories, it was the President and Democrats' agenda and their policies which fueled major price and cost-of-living hikes over the past year; economic numbers prove it. Still, the administration and mainstream media continue to push falsehoods about the creation of this high inflationary environment. In this edition of Thought to Action, London Center for Policy President Tony Shaffer and Economist'Host of "We the People" Geeta Chopra debunk the propaganda and reveal the true causes of record inflation in the U.S.Shaffer and Chopra delve into the numbers and what's behind them - from unemployment to CPI and the spin coming out of Washington. They also discuss ways to improve our situation.In addition, Chopra explains how some immigrant communities in the US are manipulated into voting against their own economic interests, citing financial stats as well as people's experiences after coming to America.

You hear the term "unthinkable" from celebs and media pundits when describing the nuclear threat out of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Russia-Ukraine War. Is it really that "unthinkable" considering the world leadership dynamics involved? How will the escalating situation affect the US' national security? The same term is also laid next to the idea that Russia can attack our national power grid either via an EMP or a cyber attack. If this happens, are we prepared? How does Washington's continued ignorance of protecting our grid within federal infrastructure plans come into play? On this edition of Thought to Action, our panel takes a deep dive into the situation and whether the Biden Administration and Western Leadership is up to the challenges and handling the potential nuclear war threats coming out of Putin and his camp:London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony ShafferLCPR Board Member Ambassador Henry "Hank" CooperLCPR Sr. Fellow Marine Capt.

On this edition of the Thought to Action Great Reset Roundtable, our panel discusses how the World Economic Forum and political accomplices started to and plan to continue hammering the plan home, forcing upon citizens of sovereign nations where the majority does not want it. This session is presented by the Herb London Center for Policy ResearchWe discuss how America's Left and Media propagandists have been manipulating both language and policy to gradually comply with Klaus Schwab's dream to concentrate power into a small global elite under the guise of what he calls "fairness and global equity."The Great Reset was originally denounced by Western mainstream media as a "conspiracy theory" despite the WEF and its members explaining the plan in public and in readable text. They, however, need to take advantage of mass unrest and the recent COVID-19 pandemic panic to implement their agenda.Our panel also discusses the parallels between the Great Reset and the United Nations' "Agenda 21 (Now Agenda 2030," why politicians on the American Left have weaved "2030" into their political stump speeches as well as media commentary over the past few years and how it all comes together.

The Russia-Ukraine conflict continues to escalate. Shortly after we taped this session, Putin's forces fired explosives into the former Soviet Republic. While this is happening, pundits are arguing as to why the US either needs to interfere or stay out of it. Still, the real question is: What does the Russia-Ukraine Conflict matter to us in the U.S.? Why should regular Americans looking to put food on their family's tables amid high domestic inflation care?We at the London Center for Policy Research answer these questions and discuss why this matters to all of us here in the United States.Our panel:LCPR President LTC Tony ShafferLCPR Senior Fellow LTC British Army Tim WIlsonLCPR Senior Fellow Jay HomnickLCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt.

The 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing has been repeatedly referred to as the "Genocide Olympics" amid the Chinese Communist Party's human rights abuses and treatment of its Uyghur population. In addition, China's government has long ruled with its collective boot on the necks of its people and most recently installed an oppressive "social credit" system to control its population. Adding all of that to the party's threats toward Taiwan and the people of Hong Kong, our panel from the London Center for Policy Research addresses these and other underlying issues with China and these games including the big question: Why did the US not boycott the 2022 Winter Games?Our Panelists:London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony ShafferLondon Center Senior Fellow, Author of The Coming Collapse of China Gordon ChangLondon Center Senior Fellow Jay HomnickLondon Center Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt Pete O'BrienFollow Gordon Chang on Twitter: @GordonGChang Follow the London Center on Twitter: @TheLCPR Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.Or, please feel free to make a contribution here: https://givebutter.com/london-center-...For exclusive content, sneak previews and access to our full Ask Us Anything Sessions (and future live virtual events) - please join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoaction Thought to Action is presented by the London Center for Policy Research https://www.londoncenter.org
Recently, the idea of packing the Supreme Court by adding activist justices to the bench has resurfaced as President Biden has faced Constitutional challenges to his Build Back Better Agenda. Like President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Biden entertained this idea to get his way. Still, if Biden gets to pack the High Court, what's to stop the next administration from expanding it to fit its needs as well? This would be a disturbing and expensive trend. Since Ulysses Grant's presidency, the US Supreme Court has been composed of nine Justices. The numbers in previous years fluctuated between five and ten. Nine seems to be a logical number and one we have lived with for over 145 years, yet not officially established in our Constitution.We invited two leaders from the Keep Nine Coalition to discuss with our London Center Fellows the need and plan to establish an official Keep Nine Constitutional Amendment, which would set the number of SCOTUS Justices to nine. We also discuss the potential consequences of court packing.Our panel:London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony ShafferLCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Captain Pete O'BrienLCPR Senior Fellow LTC (British Army) Tim WIlsonKeep Nine Coalition Executive Director Roman BuhlerKeep Nine Coalition Chairman and Former Attorney General of Tennessee Paul SummersVisit the Keep Nine Coalition at https://www.keepnine.org Thank you for watching; please feel free to comment, share and subscribe.Or, please feel free to make a contribution here: https://givebutter.com/london-center-for-policy-researchFor exclusive content, sneak previews and access to our full Ask Us Anything Sessions (and future live virtual events) - please join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/thoughttoaction Thought to Action is presented by the London Center for Policy Research https://www.londoncenter.org
Sixteen years ago, Judicial Watch submitted a Freedom of Information Act request to the US Government while doing research on the nation's Able Danger data-mining scandal, which led to intelligence issues before the 9/11/01 terrorist attacks. Finally, a short time ago, Washington answered back. Why did it take so long? Why was this request ignored until now? What does the nation NOT want citizens to know about Able Danger and the potential issues with government data-mining and profiling?London Center for Policy Research President LTC Tony Shaffer, the man who blew the whistle exposing Able Danger and Judicial Watch's Director of Investigations and Research Chris Farrell discuss possible answers to these questions and what actually happened with Able Danger.Tony and Chris also discuss Farrell's latest book, Exiled Emissary: George H.

2021 could perhaps be called the "Year of Self-Defense" as there were high-profile legal victories for armed citizens protecting themselves as well as others and numbers of justifiable homicides in the US surpassed those by law enforcement.
