Deprogrammed with Keri Smith

Join us for a LIVE Watch-Along on #Deprogrammed with Keri Smith, Wednesday, January 31st at 6pm CST. We're watching footage from yesterday's arguments both for and against SB-14 in front of the Texas Supreme Court. SB-14 is a Texas bill that bans Texas doctors from performing mutilating "gender transition" surgeries on children or giving often sterilizing puberty-blockers and cross-sex hormones to children. The bill was to go into effect in September of 2023, but a district court judge issued a temporary injunction on the law, which resulted in Texas's Attorney General filing an appeal to the Texas Supreme Court, which allowed the ban to take effect September 1, 2023. Those who support mutilating and sterilizing children are asking that the Texas Supreme Court reinstate the injunction on the ban. This is an important developing story for us to watch together, to familiarize ourselves with the arguments both for and against "gender affirming care" (an Orwellian phrase) for children. The line dividing good and evil is clear in these arguments.

Join us on Thursday, April 13th at 6pm CST for Keri Smith's Deprogrammed conversation with BrahmaBull! This is a conversation running the gamut from politics, to faith (are there differences between new a longtime believers?), to bourbon. Come say hi! ____________ I am a small Rumbler/Youtuber, been at it for a little over a year. I am a Christian and a conservative. I love God, my family, my country and my bourbon. I was born into the strange partial generation in between true Gen X and Millennial, which is to say my childhood took outdoors whenever possible, but the internet came about during my teen years, so I grew up with some of its early influence. I do have a fulltime day job and being a creator/panelist is my hobby and my outlet. I am here to speak with people, continue to formulate my opinions from those conversations and change if I am wrong. You can find me on my show Bourbon and Boarding on my Rumble, as a panelist on @ComixDivision's shows Yelling at Parked Cars and Thursday Night Throwdown, frequently on @CultureCasino's Late Night Sunday show, and on @madchismo's ongoing series of videos, Movies with Mad.
