Locals Targeted After Kirk Assassination, ICE Detains Austin Man, and Hispanic Heritage Month

The Texas Education Agency is looking into nearly 280 complaints about teachers and school staff who allegedly posted negative comments about Charlie Kirk after his assassination. Though this investigation is state-wide, the fallout is being felt in school districts in Georgetown and Hutto. This comes as the Texas Legislature forms new committees to examine free speech on college campuses. On this week's Friday News Roundup, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec and Austin Vida editor and publisher Nancy Flores to unpack how Kirk's murder is reverberating through Central Texas. Plus, they dig into the recent detention of a beloved local dog park handler by ICE, and why this year's Hispanic Heritage Month feels noticeably different. Want some more Austin news?
