The Indictment: Prosecuting the Chinese Communist Party & Friends for Crimes against America, China, and the World

by Frank J. Gaffney Jr., Dede Laugesen, Steve Bannon (Foreword)

A generation ago, Ronald Reagan mapped out and executed a strategy for taking down the last totalitarian communist regime that sought America’s the Soviet Union’s “evil empire.” We can settle for no less with respect to our time’s “existential threat to freedom.” The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) can and must be thwarted in its determined bid to crush liberty, destroy our country, and institute what Xi Jinping calls “global governance, directed and enforced from Beijing.
 
This book represents the fruits of a comprehensive effort to develop and champion a Reaganesque strategy for our time. It draws upon a comprehensive program of some seventy webinars conducted by the Committee on the Present China 1) the CCP’s decades-long self-described “Unrestricted Warfare” against America; and 2) the role America’s elites have played in helping the Chinese Communists win.
 
Drawing upon all this content, The Indictment identifies nine criminal “charges” that can and must be brought and prosecuted, at least in the court of public opinion, against the Chinese Communist Party and its American enablers. If, moreover, the CCP is designated as the Transnational Criminal Organization it is, actual criminal prosecutions of the Party and its friends should also be possible.
 
The Indictment also enumerates twenty specific actions that are required to punish the perpetrators of war crimes against America and humanity—and defeat those likely in the offing.
 
The Indictment is intended to inspire and equip congressional investigators, patriotic executive branch officials, journalists, and the public at large to review these charges and recommended actions for a surpassingly important and extremely urgent Bringing to justice and taking down the Chinese Communist Party for its horrific criminal conduct—past, present, and that which is in the works—against its own people and countless others, including ours.

[Kenneth Paar · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is required reading for all America First patriots and other freedom-loving American citizens. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and their 'captured elites' inside the US Government and corporate entities are the existential threat to the freedoms and sovreignity of the USA and its citizens now, and especially as we close in on #Agenda2030. IMHO

“For far too long, the Chinese Communist Party’s existential threat to the United States was ignored. Now that there is increasing recognition of the danger, concrete measures must be taken against it. Frank Gaffney with Dede Laugesen for the Committee on the Present Danger: China have produced an exceptional book, The Indictment, that addresses both the threat and the needed response. The book documents the crimes of the Chinese Communist Party against America and humanity so that readers will understand the nature of the threat and the critical steps of what must be done to defeat the CCP. This comprehensive, thoughtful, and strategic analysis provides an unparalleled tour of the horizon regarding the CCP’s unrestricted warfare campaign against the United States and how the CCP is assisted in this war by people, businesses, and governments around the world—including on Wall Street and Silicon Valley. This remarkable book is essential reading for all who seek to understand the scope of the threat and what must be urgently accomplished to defeat the malevolent force that is the Chinese Communist Party.
—Dr. Bradley Thayer, PhD, Director of China Policy, Center for Security Policy; author of Understanding the China Threat

“Frank Gaffney’s The Indictment makes the case that the People’s Republic of China is an existential threat to America’s national security. The evidence for this case is compelling and the recommended actions are clearly presented. If you care about the future of America, then read this book. If you want to join the effort to disrupt, degrade, and defeat the Chinese Communist Party’s strategic agenda, then buy more than one and send it to your family and friends. Time is not on our side. We must act now against this clear and present danger.”
—Captain James Fanell, US Navy (Ret.), former Chief of Intelligence, US Pacific Fleet

“It is time to defend the United States of America. It is time to indict the Communist Party of China. It is time to read The Indictment.”
—Gordon G. Chang, author of The Coming Collapse of China

“We’re in a war, but only one side has been fighting it. It’s long past time that the United States joins the battle against the most existential threat we’ve ever faced: the CCP. The Indictment offers a brilliant and exact roadmap to not just stop the CCP, but defeat it. Every American must read it to understand what we’re up against–and what we all must do to ensure American freedom, prosperity, and dominance in the twenty-first century.”
—Dr. Monica Crowley, PhD, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury; author of What the Bleep Just Happened

“America is at war with Communist China. No one has done more to sound this alarm than Frank Gaffney. The Indictment is a carefully prepared treatment of how America’s leaders—most especially the US Congress—must act now to both alert the American people and take the logical steps to stop the CCP in their tracks. There is no more important blueprint for America’s national survival than this work by Gaffney.”
—Brian T. Kennedy, President of The American Strategy Group; Chairman of Committee on the Present Danger: China

I don't know how to rate this book. It took my 6 weeks to read. Not that it's a long book but I would find myself feeling agitated, frustrated and helpless.
I think this is an important book. Perhaps we should send a copy to all our representatives.

Loads of references are included. Ugh, read of yourself and give me your opinion. I'm exhausted.

I get the gist of how this book is key to protecting America's sovereignty and security, and the Chinese Communist Party does endanger the core principles of liberty and human rights. I get the crux of the message—but the excessive quotes distract from the smooth continuity of the writing. Adding more direct commentary from the author would contribute to a more engaging read.

Expected much more from this book and got far less. This simply felt like a regurgitation of previous talking points. Nothing felt truly new and insightful. Clearly written to garner interest among the electorate come 2024
