Deep Dive: Secretary Antony Blinken's Dangerous Invitation to the UN
Biden Administration Secretary Antony Blinken may have gone too far this time by asking the UN to investigate the US's level of wokeness and what he calls "systematic racism" in the US. This offer for foreign interests to have access to our nation at an unprecedented level is both bizarre and dangerous on several levels.
This week on Thought to Action, the London Center for Policy Research delves into the dangers of Blinken's offer, the political motivations behind it and its potential ramifications now and in the future.

Putin's Invasion of Ukraine from a Strategic Standpoint
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?

What's at Stake when SCOTUS Hears an Historic Right to Carry Case
The Supreme Court recently decided it would hear New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Keith Corlett, a case involving state limitations on an individual's right to carry a firearm. Second Amendment supporters and gun control advocates will be closely watching this case as it develops.
The decision will have great impact on the future of the 2A Rights vs. Gun Control Agenda legislative battles on the heels of President Joe #Bidens's arguably over-reaching executive orders aimed at the right to carry.
Lt. Col. (Ret) Tony Shaffer and Lt. Col. (British Army, Ret.) Tim Wilson discuss the importance of the case, its residual effects and what it means for the future of Constitutional Rights protections as well as infringements.

Now That a Federal Judge Shut Down CA's "Assault Weapons" Ban: What's Next, Moving Forward?
US District Court Judge Roger Benitez recently overturned California's "assault weapons" ban. As 2nd Amendment supporters heralded the decision, anti-gun activists decried it with the help of much of the mainstream media. The latter group includes embattled California Governor Gavin Newsom, who angrily responded to the decision, throwing verbal barbs at Judge Benitez.
What does this mean for the fight to protect the 2nd Amendment? What happens next? Will this fight go all the way to the Supreme Court? If the overturning decision is upheld. how do Constitutionalists and others in favor of the 2nd Amendment move forward? At what length will the leaders of the anti-gun agenda and media allies go to try and rebuff progress on protecting the right to self-defense?
In this special edition f Thought to Action, presented by the London Center for Policy Research, our panelists address these questions.

The Truth About U.S. Inflation
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. Chopra is also the author of the new book, My Personal Letter to Trump: Freedom. Available on Amazon.

Roe v Wade: A Constitutional Perspective
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). Our panel takes a deeper dive:

Culture Wars: The Insurgency Fights Back
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.

Red Flag Laws and Potential Government Abuses: An Honest Conversation
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.

Read Alert: #China: Pt. 1: The CCP Threat to Taiwan and Hong Kong
Welcome to Part 1 in our new series on the threat Communist China's CCP poses to its neighbors and the rest of the world, presented by the Herb London Center for Policy Research. We will be looking into China's recent actions, ambitions, tactics, history and how it all affects President Xi and the CCP's game plan for world domination.
In our first installment, our panelists discuss President Xi and the CCP's aggressions and agenda toward Taiwan (which Bejing still believes to be part of the mainland) and Hong Kong.
The CCP has long claimed Taiwan to be a non-independent piece of China while also taking a heavy-handed approach to Hong Kong's citizens who dared stand up to the dictatorial regime. Our panelists, LCPR President LTC (Ret) Tony Shaffer, LCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt (Ret) Pete O'Brien and Claidia Rosett, Women's Forum Foreign Policy Fellow/Hudson Institute Fellow discuss Xi's plans to "reunite" Taiwan with the mainland, the dangers the party poses to Hong Kong and Taiwan, the cruelty of Bejing's methods toward such goals and how US and other leadership must better contain China's leadership on the world stage.

The Argument for a Properly-Armed Citizenry: Is it Time to End the Gun Control Experiment?
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. In light of these facts, recent happenings and skyrocketing crime numbers in cities with hefty gun control laws, there is a logical argument to end the authoritarian gun control experiment.
In this edition of Thought to Action, presented by the London Center for Policy Research, LCPR Sr. Fellow LTC (Ret, British Army) Tim Wilson and LCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt (Ret) Pete O'Brien discuss the arguments supporting continued support of the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution and against government-induced gun control using evidence from not only within US borders but around the world.

Why the 2nd Amendment is as Important Now As It Was When the Constitution Was Written

Our panel from the London Center for Policy Research answers a viewer's question about the history of the 2nd Amendment and why, despite the anti-gun politics popular among many on the Left, the right for US citizens to own and carry firearms and defend themselves is as important and relevant today as it was when the nation's founders drafted the Constitution.

Why the Russia-Ukraine Conflict Matters to Us in the U.S.
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.

The Green Agenda's Continued Failures and Solutions to the Need for Cleaner Energy
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

Red Alert: #China part 2 - The CCP's Quest for Industrial and Technological Dominance
Communist China has been quietly getting stronger for decades before temporarily overtaking the US as the world's most powerful economy in the mid 2010s -- all while reaping the benefits of "developing nation" status internationally as the western world has systematically weakened themselves most years over the last decade-plus. US companies, politicians and media have also propped up the Communist China regime in that time span.
On this week's edition of Thought to Action Red Alert: China, London Center for Policy Research Senior Fellows Lt Col (British Army, Ret) Tim Wilson and David Goldman delve into the CCP's economic ambitions, quest to dominate the globe industrially and technologically and a look at President Xi's leadership circle.

Red Alert #China 5: Will the CCP Swoop into #Afghanistan After the Botched US Pullout?
New threats loom after the Biden Administration's failures concerning the US withdrawal of Afghanistan, not the least of which is the potential for China to either forcefully or diplomatically move into the nation and create ties with the new Taliban government.
Chinese influence in the Central Asian nation not only give the CCP strong presence at a globally strategic location, but potential control over Afghanistan rich natural resources, including coveted Rare Earth materials (the latter of which China is said to have control of 80-90% of the world's supply). This could have severe implications in technological advancement, economics and overall political power for President Xi and his party.
On this edition of Red Alert: China, presented by the London Center for Policy Research, our panel discusses these potential threats and China's possible moves involving Afghanistan and its new Taliban leadership.

The Gun Control Agenda's Anti-2nd Amendment Buzzwords
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."

The War on Objective Truth: Fighting Deliberate Suppression of Information
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."

Why the Left is Changing the Rules to Get Their Way: Court Packing to Squashing the Filibuster
Why is the Left as hard-pressed to push its radical agenda on America so fast and through underhanded means? Are they worried about losing the House in 2022? Do they realize their policies are not popular or logical and sometimes unconstitutional?
London Center for Policy Research President Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer and Distinguished Fellow Bryan Griffin discuss why the ideologues from the Washington Left feel the need to change long-standing rules to push an aggressive radical agenda.
The specter of the filibuster was threatened by the Congressional Democrats quite often over the past few decades, yet all of a sudden it is somehow a "racist" archaic artifact; nine Supreme Court justices were fine since FDR tried to circumvent the law establishing the number. We already saw several forced rule-changes in the 2020 election process as a means to an end.
The Constitution was created to protect the rights of the individual from the government and to create a process where the nation's population would not be forced to obey a tyranny of the majority. Shaffer and Griffin reveal the motives behind the attempted rule-changes.

Why We Need a Constitutional Amendment to Keep The Supreme Court at Nine Justices
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 Shaffer
LCPR Distinguished Fellow Navy Captain Pete O'Brien
LCPR Senior Fellow LTC (British Army) Tim WIlson
Keep Nine Coalition Executive Director Roman Buhler
Keep Nine Coalition Chairman and Former Attorney General of Tennessee Paul Summers
