Nick Sortor @nicksortor 🚨 BREAKING: ICE just ARRESTED the Superintendent of Des Moines Iowa schools, who is an illegal immigrant from AFRICA, per @BillMelugin_
He was armed, and attempted to FLEE
WTF?
He led the LARGEST school district in Iowa. Our kids are NOT SAFE with Democrats in charge. INSANE
Ian Andre Roberts will now be sent back to Guayana.
Modern journalism is a clown show.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>....
Of course, because the journalism departments in most universities are a joke!
That was also my first thought.
Possibly the author of this article drank too much Koolaid.
Public schools are infested with vile and disgusting people.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Any parent in America who sends their children to public schools is guilty of child abuse!
Guyana is not in Africa.
He is from South America according to other articles, Guyanna. I guess hiring him made the school board smug and happy since they apparently did not check his background very much. Most school supts have a PhD, this guy have any education?
Ghana is in West Africa. Could be a spelling error in the article, or not. Guayana or Ghana? But I am wondering if Ian Roberts is his birth name.
He’s from Africa originally.
Ian ain’t his real name.
He was likely a child soldier murderer in his past life. J/k.
Perhaps we will find out the truth one day.
“Seize ALL his assets and kick him out.”
And the “administrators” who knowingly gave him the job should suffer even greater punishment.
His background... from wikipedia
“Dr. Roberts has worked in education for decades, holding roles as a classroom teacher, school administrator and executive leader. He has also authored several books about education.
Dr. Roberts received his bachelor’s degree from Coppin State University in 1998 in Baltimore, Maryland [2]. He next earned a master’s degree from St. John’s University and a second master’s degree from the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University. He attended an Executive MBA program at the MIT Sloan School of Management. He earned a doctorate in education with a focus on urban educational leadership from Trident University[3][4][5].
Before becoming the DMPS superintendent in July 2023, he was a superintendent at Millcreek Township School District and St. Louis Public Schools (MO) High School Network. He also worked at schools in Baltimore, the South Bronx, N.Y. and Washington, D.C. He earned the George Washington University’s 2013 Washington D.C. Principal of the Year award.”
Bewhahahahah....Looken sharp Iowa!
I wish we wouldn’t use their language.
Government school
BTW, I looked it up. Des Moines is around 11.5% black. Relatively few by Southern standards.
Innumeracy is rampant in that field.
The ultimate DEI hire! School districts these days go out of their way/bend over backwards to find “diverse” â„¢ candidates.
I’m sure Guyana has $400k/year jobs once they get done throwing rocks at trees to knock down their dinner and building houses with sticks, leaves and their own shit.
Not surprised.
Iowans are suckers for a fast talker.
Remember the fastest talker of them all, “Professor” Harold Hill?
It gets better. The chair of the school board that hired him is Jackie Norris, former Chief of Staff to Michelle Obama!

What did Jackie know and when did she know it?
You’re right. The term public school is bull sh*t. They’re government run schools....Yep.
