Thought to Action

China has spent the last many decades manipulating its currency, stealing technology and intellectual property, engaging in cyber warfare as well as other aggressive financial tactics to gain economic leverage against the U.S. and the rest of the world. How did we allow this to go on for so long and why are the current (and most of the past) administrations doing nothing about it? On this third installment of Red Alert: China, London Center for Policy Research Distinguished Fellow Gordon Chang and LCPR President Tony Shaffer delve into and break down the situation, President Xi's tactics and how much influence the CCP actually has on Wall Street and in Washington, DC today.

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.

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.

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.

As regular people continue to challenge the establishment Cult of #Wokeness, their propagandists on the Left continue to double down on it. Still, beneath the surface, the Left's #CancelCulture, Intersectionalists, Critical Race Theorists (#CRT), Washington Cronies and Media Propagandist Allies have been pushing their own #Maoist Cultural Revolution in the US.



On this week's Thought to Action, London Center for Policy Research President LTC (Ret) Tony Shaffer and Senior Fellow/Former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs (Trump Admin) Monica Crowley go in-depth to expose the parallels between the American Left's agenda, Mainstream Media members and Mao's Cultural Revolution as well as how much of a credible threat President Trump was (and still is) to their motives and established political oligarchy, plus what it would take to continue fighting against the Woke SJW Collective Agenda.

President Biden and Congressional Democrats are still trying to push an extremely expensive spending package disguised as an "infrastructure" bill aiming a plethora of funds toward Federal Universal Pre-K, Child Care and Free Community College tuition, there is little to no financial attention toward protecting the nation's national power grid and critical infrastructure.


As Congressional Moderates are working on a bipartisan agreement, those on the farther side of the Left continue to clamor for the Trojan Horse provisions in the Biden Infrastructure Plan which could easily be proposed in a separate bill subject to Congressional debate. Still, there is no money or media attention paid to the need to prepare for potential cyber attacks, EMP attacks or CME event.


On this installment of Thought to Action, London Center for Policy Research Senior Fellow LTC (British Army, Retired) and Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt. (Retired) Pete O'Brien go in-depth as to why we need to protect our critical infrastructure, preparing for interruptions to our grid as individuals and how to get politicians to pay significant attention to this issue.

The right to bear arms is clearly stated in the US Constitution's 2nd Amendment. In recent years, politicians on the Left have stopped at nothing to try and curtail Americans' rights to gun ownership, much like what happened in Britain.. Still, infringements on the right to self-defense have been going on by powerful rulers throughout history. Steve Halbrook of the Independent Institute and author of the book, A Right to Bear Arms, talks with London Center for Policy Research Sr. Fellow LTC (Ret, British Army) Tim Wilson about the historic perspective to defensive weapons ownership versus modern efforts to marginalize the 2nd Amendment.


LTC Wilson and Halbrook discuss how the US anti-gun politicians will grasp at proverbial straws to circumvent the Constitutional Right to bear arms, including using the Misdeal 1328 Statute of Northampton as a precedent for their claims. They also look at how gun control has affected crime activity in the UK as well as several states and municipalities in the US.

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.

Wokeism, Pesuro-enlightenment and Political Correctness: Call if what you want, but it has infiltrated our lives, schools, workplaces and overall culture. If the "woke" are a loud minority, then why do many corporations, entertainers, pro athletes and game/comic creators scramble to toe their party line? How did Cancel Culture become as powerful as it is and how do we take it back?

On Thought to Action, London Center for Policy Research President discusses the loud "woke" presence in media aimed at youth entertainment and gaming culture with Jeremy Hambly, social critic and host of the widely successful Youtube channels, The Quartering and The MidWestly.

The Colonial Pipeline hack, subsequent payment of cyber-ransom and government "response" has exposed the nation's power infrastructure's vulnerabilities to cyber attacks. What can we do to both respond and prevent them in the future?

London Center for Policy Research Senior Fellow Lt. Col. (Ret, British Army) Tim Wilson and Distinguished Fellow Navy Capt. (Ret.) Pete O'Brien assess the situation as it stands and breaks down what needs to be done to better protect our power sources and grid. Wilson and O'Brien also discuss how a fraction of the Trillions in spending proposed in the Biden Infrastructure Bill could be shifted away from pork and special interests toward the needs presented here and by the London Center in recent weeks, led by articles written by LCPR Board of Directors member Ambassador Hank Cooper (see his work on www.londoncenter.org or in other Thought to Action episodes.
