Description

On Thursday's show: From ABC pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air, to firings and reviews of Texas public school teachers and staff, what some have said about the shooting of Charlie Kirk has come back to bite them. But is it all legal? A constitutional law professor explains the nuances.

Also this hour: We explore how a new law is affecting what public school nurses can and cannot do for sick students.

Then, are some public schools too intent on finding that next "star principal" to lead them?

And we reflect on the legacy of Rice University's Shepherd School of Music as it celebrates its 50th anniversary.
