Former Navy Secretary J. William Middendorf says America has entered a new cold war with China. Middendorf, author of the new book “The Great Nightfall: How We Win the New Cold War,” joins the show to explain the threat that China poses to America's interests. Middendorf, a member of The Heritage Foundation's Board of Trustees since 1989, also outlines what the U.S. military must do to be prepared to stand against our adversaries. We also cover these stories:
