Was this free speech? Was it a violation of free speech for the FCC to pressure ABC to cancel Kimmel's show? But the most important question after this incident is a broader one: what is it that conservatives continue to get wrong when engaging with their opponents in situations like this? In this episode of The Deep, Erika discusses the need to establish unity in strategy on the right and she lays out 6 rules for effectively engaging with our opponents.Timestamps:0:00 - Intro: What happened with Jimmy Kimmel?3:05 - Sponsor: Taylor Frigon Capital Management4:32 - Conservatives greatest pitfall9:02 - Facts and logic aren't the only things we need9:58 - How do we respond to an increasingly more violent left?11:55 - You don't have to engage with everyone, actually13:04 - Speak truth to the head, but also appeal to the heart13:55 - Use strong, accurate language16:18 - Institutions and platforms matter18:00 - Audit your own house19:59 - Always be ready to pay the price19:50 - Conclusion: How to face our opponentsSubscribe to the LOOPcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theLOOPcast

Hey Guys,We wrote this script before watching the tragic killing of Charlie Kirk. Charlie was known for many things, but he was most proud of being a husband and a father. His mission went beyond winning votes, he passionately advocated for marriage and family as a core fabric of our country, a message he preached to thousands of young Americans. If you see this, please pray for his soul, his wife, and his two kids. --The LOOPcastThe Deep with Erika Ahern is sponsored by Taylor Frigon Capital Management, serving clients at every stage of wealth: from first-time investors to high-net-worth families and organizations seeking full-service wealth guidance.
