An Iowa school district superintendent living in the United States illegally who also faces weapons charges was arrested Friday, authorities said. Ian Andre Roberts, who heads the Des Moines Public Schools—the largest school district in the state—was taken into custody on a fugitive warrant. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents pursued Roberts after he sped away, authorities said. They later found his vehicle abandoned, and an Iowa State Patrol K-9 was called in to help search for him.

He enters the country in 1999, was he already a Dr. (presume it's a PhD considering he ends up in education)? He overstayed his visa. Gets job after job (maybe those other places caught on to his status). Des Moines, looking to be "diverse" chooses this person from a nationwide search? What did his CV say that swayed them? Now, has he been voting or is he registered to vote in any of those states he's lived it (remember, an old registration my still be on the rolls allowing someone to use it which is common particularly for the harvesters).

FTA, "Dr. Roberts has been a trusted partner, a dedicated advocate for equity...". It appears after an extensive nationwide search Des Moines Public Schools found the prefect DIE hire. Black, illegal, liar, ordered deported and wanted for felony passion of a firearm. Kinda shocked he hasn't been elected to the House as a Dem from a solid quota district.

He was hired in 2023 after an "exhaustive nationwide search". But in 2020 his green card expired and he had been under deportation orders and had already had a weapons charge against him. What I find even more astonishing, is that when the officers attempter to arrest him he ran and was later found by the K9 officer in the brush. He hardly acted like a dignified educator with immigration problems. Also, his doctorate (likely an EdD) was from an online university. I mean, this guy was as phony as a $3 bill, and yet he was hired to oversee THIRTY THOUSAND students and they paid him $280,000 per year. Insanity.

I looked up the team fielded by Guyana for the 2000 Games held in Sydney Australia using Wikipedia. Wikipedia listed 5 team members for the entire team. Ian Andre Roberts was not one of those people. Also there was nobody competing in the 800 from Guyana. Am I wrong here or is this another made up piece of nonsense by someone inflating their resume? This man was supposed to be vetted.

This is a strange case. He appears to have created a fictitious life history. As to his job performance, he seems to have done a good job. It appears that his main crimes were violating the terms of his F-1 student visa and attacking the ICE agent that stopped him. I wonder how the ICE knew there was a warrant for his arrest.

And the school board says that they found him faster an exhaustive nationwide hunt for the best possible candidate. An illegal alien with a warrant for evading deportation. It is impossible to invent fictional stories any more bizarre than what leftist actually do.

Man Who Attempted to Assassinate Justice
Kavanaugh Sentenced to Just Eight Years

Posted by Dreadnought 10/4/2025 1:23:25 AM Post Reply
Nicholas Roske, the man who pleaded guilty to attempting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, has been sentenced to 97 months in prison, a fraction of the 30 years the Justice Department was seeking. Roske, who now identifies as a transgender woman and goes by the name “Sophie,” was arrested outside Kavanaugh’s home in June 2022 carrying a pistol and burglary tools. He pled guilty in April to attempting to assassinate Kavanaugh. Judge Deborah Boardman, a Biden appointee, threw out most of the terrorism enhancement that would have resulted in a harsher sentence, opting to hand Roske a sentence of just over eight years, the length of time Roske’s attorneys requested.

BOSTON — A federal appeals court in Boston ruled on Friday that the Trump administration cannot withhold citizenship from children born to people in the country illegally or temporarily, adding to the mounting legal setbacks for the president’s birthright order. A three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals became the fifth federal court since June to either issue or uphold orders blocking the president’s birthright order. The court concluded that the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on their claims that the children described in the order are entitled to birthright citizenship under the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the U.S. military killed four “narco-terrorists” on a boat he said was carrying narcotics off the coast of Venezuela on Friday morning, the latest strike on “narco-trafficking” vessels in the Caribbean Sea. Hegseth said a “kinetic” strike took out a boat affiliated with a designated terrorist organization in the U.S. Southern Command area of responsibility. No U.S. forces were injured during the operation. “The strike was conducted in international waters just off the coast of Venezuela while the vessel was transporting substantial amounts of narcotics – headed to America to poison our people,”

Venezuela has accused U.S. combat aircraft of operating just 46 miles off its northern coast, as American forces surge across the Caribbean in what many view as a direct show of military pressure on Nicolas Maduro’s government. Satellite imagery, Pentagon releases, and ship tracking reports reveal stealth jets, Marines, and naval vessels poised across Puerto Rico and the eastern Caribbean, raising the specter of escalating tensions that some say could be the opening moves of a broader confrontation. Newsweek reached out to the State Department and Venezuela's Foreign Ministry for comment.

The Department of Energy canceled a $630.6 million Biden-era grant that would have funded green energy projects in California, and which Gov.

According to internal agency documents, Trump Energy Department officials determined that the grant would have been used primarily to support new solar and wind energy projects. State leaders said they planned to use the funding to upgrade 100 miles of transmission lines to enable more green energy to come online as part of the California Energy Commission's so-called CHARGE 2T program.
