Summary

China held a spectacular military parade Wednesday, joined by the leaders of Russia, India, and other nations. It wasn't just a bunch of tanks and troops, but also clear evidence that China's strength is almost on par with America's — or maybe ahead of us in some areas. Charlie explains how far China has come, and why America must radically overhaul itself to not be replaced as the world's most powerful country. Plus, Mike Lee discusses redistricting drama in Utah and why protesters in this "red state" are lining up to denounce Charlie.
