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?

Our Culture Wars: The Insurgency Continues as we discuss what's affecting our everyday lives from our own neighborhoods, in Washington and all the way to the what the sheltered World Economic Forum thinks it will have planned for us.

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.

On this edition of Thought to Action, we announce the formation of Project Sentinel, which will be Chaired by Navy Capt (Ret) Pete O'Brien, President LTC (Ret) Tony Shaffer and Head of the Project Sentinel Second Amendment Project LTC (Ret) Tim Wilson, who reveal the new organization's mission, why it was formed and plans for the future.

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.

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.

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.

The latest propaganda from Climate Alarmists has demonized Nitrogen. As a Pavlovian response, the Netherlands Government mandated limits on livestock and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau demanded limits on fertilizer use. While the farmers are fighting back, establishment news outlets are demonizing the Dutch farmers' protests by tying them to what many have called "the far right" boogeymen to justify the government mandates. It would seem they are unwittingly going to cause a massive food shortage, but is it out of pure ignorance or is this planned considering prominent elite friends of theirs have advocated the consumption of synthetic meats (Bill Gates), the tracking of our energy use (WEF 2022, Evans), consuming insects for protein and, of course, the claims about the alleged harmfulness of noxious gasses emitting from cows (Ocasio-Cortez, Green New Deal) -- all in the name of "Climate Change" During our most recent livestream, the London Center for Policy Research explored the issue and what's to come.

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.

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 Action If you enjoy our Thought to Action videos, please comment and subscribe to our channel 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.

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.

The Supreme Court made a series of landmark decisions recently, two of them dominating the national news cycle: The overturning of Roe v. Wade and the striking down of an archaic, yet oft-abused, New York law demanding people apply with a special need to carry a concealed firearm within its borders (which in recent decades has been arguably unjustly denied too many times). While the issues decided upon triggered emotional reactions from people (and quite a few government officials) and the Department of Justice went out of its way to denounce the outcomes, the U.S. Constitution is clear about the importance of upholding both the 2nd and 10th Amendments within the Bill of Rights. The London Center for Policy Research discusses the cases, reasons the decisions were proper and whether we are once again seeing an era of respect for Constitutional Originalism.

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?

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.

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.

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."

Along with "ban guns" from anti-2nd Amendment politicians, we have been hearing another slogan after the recent tragedy in Uvalde, Texas: "Arm Teachers!"

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, President Warren Lamb as well as Senior Advisors Jim Retzke and Julie Ganschaow 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 channel 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.

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.

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.

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).
