Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released new information on criminal illegal alien Ian Andre Roberts, who was serving as Des Moines, Iowa’s school superintendent at the time of his Sept. 26 arrest. When U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials approached Roberts, he identified himself then sped off, abandoned his vehicle, and hid in a brushy area about 200 meters away, where ICE officers located him with help from Iowa State Patrol officers. At the time of arrest, a loaded handgun, hunting knife and $3,000 cash were found in his vehicle. On Oct. 2, he was charged with being an illegal alien in possession of firearms.

Comments:

Anybody looking into how he got he his plum job in the school system? But wait: there's more. Before his time in Iowa, Roberts served as superintendent of Millcreek Township School District in Pennsylvania, where his tenure was marred by a series of costly legal settlements tied to personnel decisions under his leadership.

So, these leftist idiots in Iowa didn't even have a basic background check done on this CRIMINAL illegal alien. Multiple drug sale and distribution, gun and vehicle charges. How does this happen? How do the Iowa school board officials keep their jobs?

With all those arrests, didn't anyone check his immigration status? Shouldn't he have been deported long ago?

As a librarian in a public school I have had two background checks, thorough background checks. So we are to believe that this was the best applicant that they had? That he was vetted? That his former employers were happy to give a good accounting of his previous services. This can't be just about checking off DEI boxes, or can it? I know when we went searching for new superintendents it was a big hairy deal. With public input, hearings, interviews by staff, verification etc. Who the hell runs a school system like this? These parents need to demand the whole board resign and new elections take place and then a new search for a superintendent. This guy has done everything but get away with murder. But then again we don't know everything.

Shows that parts of the USA are pretty stupid when it comes to the silent invasion of tens of millions of mostly Third World origin illegal aliens, and as we can see here with some being big time con-men. Politically the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats have been taking advantage of what they call the “New American” illegal alien population by considering them to be potential future leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrat supporters and voters, who fit within the minority categories of Democrat identity politics, useful to assist the Democrats in permanently changing the demographics of the USA to that of a minority-majority country, keeping the Democrats in permanent political power in majority control of the Congress and the White House able to pursue their leftist, progressive and socialist Democrat political agenda and to ultimately transform the USA into some sort of socialist utopia. That’s why the Democrats oppose any illegal aliens being deported.

know this sounds bogus, but I live in the Millcreek Township School District, and have emailed with Ian Roberts, invited him to hunt with us after he had a bad experience with a Pa game warden. Millcreek is a wealthy district. My school property taxes on an appraised value of 225,000 dollars on my house are about 3000 dollars. The school board members are mostly ;liberal, and they are as inept as Mark Twain described school board members. It must have felt cool for a mostly white suburban wealthy school district to hire a black guy. But separate from his immigration status, he should not have been hired.

The Liberal government's compensated confiscation campaign aimed at removing the vast majority of semi-automatic firearms from the hands of legal gun owners has officially begun, with a pilot program in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia launching on Wednesday.

Protesters gathered Friday afternoon to oppose the recent arrest of Ian Roberts, an alleged illegal alien working as a high-ranking school official in Des Moines, Iowa. Earlier that day, Roberts had evaded arrest from immigration officers; he was superintendent of the Des Moines Public Schools system, according to KCCI-TV in Iowa. After catching him, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Roberts possessed an illegally-owned pistol, which he carried in a school-issued car. He also reportedly had $3,000 cash and a fixed-blade hunting knife. Upon news of his arrest, leftists on social media called for an emergency protest, KCCI-TV reported Saturday.

1996 was the “Year of Welfare Reform,” including for migrants. The historic Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act was designed to “strengthen the principle that immigrants come to America to work, not to collect welfare benefits.” PRWORA cut off illegal aliens from most federal public benefits. It instituted a five-year ineligibility period for lawful permanent residents (LPRs) for most federal welfare programs, “to send a clear signal that immigrants are expected to … not become dependent on public welfare benefits.” The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act, enacted later in 1996, required that U.S. citizens and LPRs sponsoring relatives for green cards sign legally binding affidavits of support,

A food aid program that helps more than 6 million low-income mothers and young children will run out of federal money within two weeks unless the government shutdown ends, forcing states to use their own money to keep it afloat or risk it shutting down, experts say. The $8 billion Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, also known as WIC, provides vouchers to buy infant formula as well as fresh fruits and vegetables, low-fat milk and other healthy staples that are often out of financial reach for low-income households.

China is actively preparing for war against the United States. The signs are obvious and ominous. During the Biden regime, we saw the first signs of it.

Generally speaking, the people of Gaza are barbarians. That’s not true to a person, but it’s true as a people. Their education level is extremely low, even in comparison to the education levels in Democrat-controlled big cities in America. They live in abject poverty. Their economy is primitive and much of it is barter-based. Their currency, to the extent they use one, is the Israeli shekel but U.S. dollars and Jordanian dinars are in regular circulation as well. Their unemployment rate is thought to be around 80%, though figures are hard to come by. There’s scarcely any industry. There are few stores, and their shelves are empty. Most of this squalor is endemic.

Specific reasons for the FBI’s espionage of the sitting lawmakers are not clear. The document revealing the spy effort was recently turned over to lawmakers and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) released it to the public on Monday. “Based on the evidence to-date, Arctic Frost and related weaponization by federal law enforcement under Biden was arguably worse than Watergate,” Grassley said in a statement.
