Tim Kelly returns to The Realist Report to discuss the state of the world and wrap up 2023. Wars continue to rage in Ukraine and Palestine, with the full support and blessing of the U.S. government. The lawfare being waged against Donald Trump is reaching banana republic levels of absurdity, while millions continue to flood into the country, aided and abetted by the Biden administration. Meanwhile, if you only watched mainstream news and listened to America's bought and paid for politicians, you'd think the only major problem confronting the world would be "anti-Semitism." Tim and I address all these topics and more in this final podcast of 2023.
