Illegal Alien Superintendent’s Voter Registration Docs Deepen Need For Better Vetting

he illegal alien who ran Iowa’s largest public school district before being apprehended by ICE claimed to be a U.S. citizen on his Maryland voter registration forms, according to records obtained by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF). 

Ian Andre Roberts’ apparent false claim of citizenship exposes Maryland’s election integrity vulnerabilities and proves the need for better immigration status vetting, a foundation official asserts. The case also screams for congressional passage of a bill requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections. 

‘Maryland Could Have Prevented This’

On Monday, Prince George’s County finally released to PILF Roberts’ unredacted registration files, showing that — on at least two occasions — the foreign national from Guyana facing multiple criminal charges appears to have attested that he was a U.S. citizen on regular voter registration applications. As PILF notes, regular registration includes all elections, not just elector rights Maryland has extended to foreign nationals to vote in some local elections. 

Roberts lived in Maryland for several years, working as a teacher and a school administrator. He wasn’t a U.S. citizen then, just as he wasn’t when Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested the Des Moines Public Schools superintendent in late September. 

“Maryland could have prevented this had it used SAVE for voter registration verification when the Obama Administration first offered it,” wrote Logan Churchwell, research director for the nonprofit election integrity watchdog, in a letter to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. “It is incumbent on Maryland and DHS work together to protect citizens and immigrants alike.”

‘It Has Never Been Easier’

The SAVE system, short for Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, assists federal, state, and local benefits-processing- and distribution-agencies check the immigration status of benefit applicants. SAVE is supposed to save taxpayers from picking up the tab for illegal immigrants and others not entitled to receive public assistance. 

But the system also has been used as a critical tool for states to verify that only U.S. citizens are voting in U.S. elections. Just 26 states are using or in the process of implementing the system to verify the eligibility of registrants, according to Homeland Security’s U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. 

Maryland is not one of those states. In fact, the leftist attorney general for the blue state recently bragged about co-leading a coalition of 16 leftist attorneys general in supporting “California’s motion to dismiss a federal lawsuit demanding complete, unredacted voter registration databases from states across the country.”

PILF’s Churchwell included Maryland State Board of Elections Administrator Jared DeMarinis in his recommendation letter. Churchwell reminded DeMarinis that USCIS dramatically improved SAVE in April and November when the agency allowed queries with just the last four digits of a Social Security number. So the data on the standard Maryland voter registration form is “all that is required for a successful SAVE query.”

“It has never been easier for Maryland to adopt this tool,” the election integrity advocate wrote.

Male Baltimore High School Teacher Exposed for Posting Disturbing Kink Videos Wearing Fake Pregnancy Belly and Massive Fake Boobs – Parents and Critics Demand Immediate Firing

In yet another shocking example of radical left ideology infiltrating public schools, a “non-binary” Baltimore high school English teacher has come under intense fire for sharing explicit kink-related content on social media, including videos where he role-plays as a pregnant woman with enormous prosthetic breasts.

James Roman Stilipec, 50, who goes by “Jay Aress” online and teaches ninth-grade students at Reach! Partnership School, has been blasted by parents and conservative groups for flaunting his fetishes publicly, raising serious questions about his fitness to be around impressionable teens.

Stilipec, a former U.S. Navy veteran with 36DDD breast implants he proudly calls his “hooters,” regularly posts bizarre videos on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, X, and YouTube, which were uncovered by Reduxx.

In one compilation shared by outraged citizens, he dons a fake pregnancy belly and cradles it tenderly, using hashtags like “#jayandthetwins.”

Another clip shows him strutting with a $400 36M breastplate prosthetic, similar to the infamous Canadian teacher Kayla Lemieux who wore oversized fake boobs in class, amplifying his already enhanced chest for what appears to be fetishistic role-play as a woman.

While Stilipec doesn’t seem to wear the prosthetics in school, one profile photo shows him in a low-cut shirt exposing cleavage next to a classroom bulletin board, blurring the lines between his personal kinks and professional life.

Outraged TikTok users confronted him in a heated video conference, accusing him of “roping in the public to participate in their fetish”—a charge he denied—while demanding he be fired to protect students.

“Non-Binary” Maryland Teacher Sparks Outrage After Posting TikToks Flaunting Pregnancy And Breast Implant “Kinks”

Concerns are mounting in Maryland after a male teacher was found posting TikTok videos flaunting what he describes as his pregnancy and breast-implant fetish. Although the teacher has since locked down his social media accounts, the child-safeguarding organization Gays Against Groomers saved one of the clips and reposted it on X, where it has already racked up more than 30,000 views at the time of writing.

Reduxx has identified the teacher in the controversial video as James Roman Stilipec, who instructs Grade 9 English at REACH! Partnership School 341 in Baltimore.

In the clip shared by Gays Against Groomers, Stilipec is seen wearing an exaggerated breast form and an oversized fake pregnant belly beneath a tight green shirt. The video appears to be a repost from a concerned viewer, who captioned it: “this man @allthatjaz22 is a 9th grade teacher and posts this publicly.”

Senator Van Hollen’s “Maryland Mom” Claim Omits Criminal History

Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen (D) painted a tragic picture of a Maryland mom who is being deported unfairly, but predictably, left her criminal history out of the equation.

“Melissa Tran came here on a Green Card at age 11,” Van Hollen said on X.

“She’s since raised 4 kids, started a business, & is a beloved member of the Hagerstown community.”

“Trump is deporting her, despite a judge saying she poses no threat.”

“Is she the “worst of the worst”? Do you feel safer yet?”

Van Hollen shared the headline of The Baltimore Banner’s sensational article, which, although it included details of her criminal background, he failed to mention in his pleading X message.

Although Van Hollen left some of Tran’s other accomplishments out of his story, Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin set the record straight.

McLaughlin noted on X, “Omitting some pesky facts, Senator.”

“Mong Tuyen Thi Tran, is a criminal illegal alien from Vietnam, with criminal convictions including grand larceny, multiple counts of forgery and fraud.”

“An immigration judge issued her a final order of removal in 2004–over 20 years ago. ICE arrested her in May.”

MD School District That Lost Queer Sex Ed Case At SCOTUS Keeps Pushing Trans Ideology On Kids

The same Maryland school district the Supreme Court rebuked for exposing children to sexually explicit material is still forcing children as young as 12 to decipher numerous gender ideology terms in a vocabulary lesson, without parental knowledge, permission, or the ability to opt out.

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is a far-left school district on the periphery of Washington, D.C., perhaps most (in)famous for blocking parents from opting their children out of highly sexual material, including advocacy for homosexuality and transgenderism.

However, even after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling stating the district had to allow parents to opt their children out of the coursework, the county is still trying to force-feed young teenagers and preteens “transgender” propaganda, according to a document obtained by Defending Education from a parent.

“This vocabulary lesson requires that students buy into an ideology that many reject,” DE Senior Director of Communications Erika Sanzi told The Federalist. “Does MCPS require that students subscribe to gender ideology in order to fulfill the district’s family life requirements for middle schoolers? Because if so, that seems like viewpoint discrimination in a public school.”

The seventh grade vocabulary assignment, given the week of Oct. 13, 2025, was part of a “Family Life” (a.k.a. sexual education) lesson in which students were told to define “Sex Assigned at Birth,” “Gender Identity,” “Transgender,” “Gender Expression,” and “Cisgender.”

The worksheet appears to be a district-wide lesson, as a stamp at the bottom states “Middle School Health Education-MCPS 2023.”

It does not appear any opt out was available for this in-class assignment, ostensibly so that parents did not find out about the content.

“Gender identity,” according to the definitions provided, “refers to a person’s internal sense of being male, female, or transgender” and “How you feel. Girl, boy, both or neither.”

It also maintains that sex is “assigned at birth” instead of being immutable, and goes on to say that it can be changed because “transgender” is “when your gender identity (how you feel) is different than what doctors/midwives assigned to you when you were born (girl/boy or sex assigned at birth).”

Democrat lawmaker secretly filmed critics in BED with man to try and silence her, prosecutors say

Maryland State Senator Dalya Attar has been indicted after allegedly filming two of her rivals in bed together in an attempt to silence them. 

The bombshell indictment, filed on October 23, alleged that Attar, 35, planted tracking and recording devices to catch her two critics in the act. 

Attar then threatened to release the footage of the two ‘in bed’ unless they met her demands not to speak out against her publicly, prosecutors said. 

She is facing eight federal charges of extortion and conspiracy related to the alleged plot, which prosecutors said occurred in the run-up to the 2020 and 2022 elections. 

The target of her scheme was allegedly a political consultant whom Attar filmed in bed with a married man.  

The Democrat state senator has held office since 2019, and was the first Orthodox Jewish woman to serve on the Maryland State Senate when she was selected to fill a vacant seat in January. 

What’s more, she has been recognized as the highest ranking Orthodox Jewish woman in US history, and is currently in a hotly contested re-election campaign to retain her senate seat. 

Court records first reported by the Baltimore Sun showed that Attar is in federal custody, along with her brother Joseph Attar and another man named as Kalman Finkelstein, a city police officer.

AI Security System Mistakes Bag of Doritos for Gun, Triggers Police Response to School in Baltimore

This situation could have ended up far worse than it did.

An artificial intelligence system at a high school in Baltimore mistook a bag of Doritos as a gun.

On Monday, Taki Allen was waiting for his ride outside of Kenwood when all the sudden police officers wth their weapons drawn demanded Allen to get on the ground.

Allen completely confused by the situation heeded the officers commands and was searched by the officers only to find no weapon on him rather only a bag of Doritos.

The teen told WBRC,  “They said that an AI detector or something detected that I had a gun. He showed me a picture. I was just holding a Doritos bag like this.”

In a letter to parents the principal of Kenwood Highschool wrote, “At approximately 7 p.m., school administration received an alert that an individual on school grounds may have been in possession of a weapon. The Department of School Safety and Security quickly reviewed and canceled the initial alert after confirming there was no weapon.”

Deep State Prosecutors in Maryland Claim DOJ Doesn’t Have Strong Enough Case to Charge Adam Schiff with Mortgage Fraud in Latest Leak to Media – Todd Blanche Responds!

Deep State prosecutors in Maryland are defending Adam Schiff amid an investigation into his mortgage fraud.

Democrat Senator Adam Schiff (CA) is under investigation for mortgage fraud, specifically occupancy fraud.

The Gateway Pundit’s Joe Hoft was first to report on Schiff’s mortgage fraud back in April 2023.

Fox News’ Laura Ingraham over the summer exclusively reported that the US Attorney’s Office in Maryland is investigating Schiff for possible charges involving mortgage fraud.

In 2000 Schiff was elected to Congress and has served as a US House member from the state of California ever since. Schiff reportedly purchased a home in Maryland with his wife in 2003 stating they would occupy this home for 12 consecutive months as their “primary residence”. Despite this claim, Schiff continued to vote in California.

Schiff refinanced his home in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 claiming the Maryland home was his primary residence. In 2009, a House Ethics investigation claimed that Schiff did this and Schiff claimed it was an error and he repaid the exempt taxes to the state of Maryland.

Maryland prosecutors are now defending Schiff by anonymously leaking to the media and claiming that there is no evidence to charge the Democrat Senator with crimes.

Over the summer, President Trump called for Adam Schiff to be prosecuted and dropped receipts on the Democrat Senator’s mortgage fraud.

“Adam Schiff is a THIEF! He should be prosecuted, just like they tried to prosecute me, and everyone else — The only difference is, WE WERE TOTALLY INNOCENT, IT WAS ALL A GIANT HOAX!” President Trump said on Truth Social.

Criminal Illegal Alien Who Ran Des Moines Schools Registered As Maryland Voter

Ian Andre Roberts, the illegal alien ineligible for employment in the U.S. but hired in Iowa as superintendent at the Des Moines School District, is a registered Maryland voter.

By law, only U.S. citizens are allowed to register to vote in U.S. elections, but an election watchdog group, the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), looked into voter registration in states where Roberts previously lived and found he registered to vote as a Democrat twice, once in 2011 and again in 2016.

It raises questions about how many other illegal aliens or otherwise ineligible people have successfully registered to vote. As AAF president Tom Jones told Fox 45, “We can’t rely on the honor system to hope that illegal aliens won’t lie to us.”

The only citizenship verification on the Maryland voter registration form is a tiny box next to the question “Are you a U.S. citizen?” where the applicant checks yes or no.

Oddly, the documents AAF received from Prince George’s County Maryland concealed his answer. The Federalist asked the Prince George’s County  election office why it redacted that information. It did not respond.

The instructions tell applicants who answer “No” on the citizenship question to not complete the form, so we may assume Roberts lied and claimed to be a citizen since he completed the form, but as an illegal alien, Robert’s has a history of not following instructions. Because of the county’s redaction, we can’t be certain how he answered, so we can’t know if he lied or if he told the truth and the county overlooked it.

The form advises that lying on a voter registration is perjury punishable with up to five years in prison, if he is ever charged for it. Roberts is already incarcerated for his illegal immigration status; he is currently being held at the Council Bluffs, Iowa main jail in Polk County, the U.S. Marshals Service told The Federalist. As previously reported, Roberts has a criminal background, but was promoted through woke school systems.

Maryland Police Get ‘Overwhelming’ Number Of Volunteers To Smoke Marijuana And Eat Free Lunch At DUI Training For Officers

Police in Ocean City, Maryland say they received an “overwhelming” number people who want to volunteer to smoke marijuana and drive a vehicle in a controlled setting for DUI recognition training purposes—with the added promise of a free lunch for participants.

Just seven hours after the Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) posted on Facebook that they were soliciting volunteers for the cannabis-impaired driving exercise, the agency on Tuesday followed up by advising the public that they had more than enough sign-ups and would not be accepting additional applications.

The department’s original post said they would be partnering with Cannabis Green Lab for the annual Maryland Highway Safety Office (MHSO) Zero Deaths DUI Conference. OCPD said it was looking to recruit 12-14 volunteers “to smoke cannabis for educational purposes while officers learn to recognize cannabis impairment.”

“The Green Lab helps both officers and participants better understand the effects and levels of impairment caused by cannabis, all in a safe, controlled setting,” it said.

Participants who are ultimately selected will need to bring their own cannabis to smoke prior to the driving exercise—but OCPD said the department will be providing free lunch to volunteers courtesy of MHSO.

Of course, driving while impaired is illegal in states that have legalized cannabis and in those that still maintain criminalization, so OCPD advised that a shuttle service will be available for participants when the exercise (and lunch time) is over.

“We’ll have about 40 student officers participating, so it’s a great way to help train the next generation of law enforcement safely and responsibly,” the department said.

Marijuana Moment reached out to OCPD for an estimate of how many sign-ups it received prior to closing the application window, but a representative was not immediately available.
