When Des Moines hired Ian Andre Roberts to run Iowa’s largest school district, nobody told the public he was under a final order of removal and here illegally. Now Maryland records show he was also listed as a registered Democrat voter, despite non-citizens being barred from federal elections. Todd unpacks how this happened, what it reveals about motor-voter auto registration, and why the Left keeps insisting our elections are “the most secure in history” anyway. Then we pivot to shocking crime data from Sweden, Oakland, and the U.S. Sentencing Commission showing that a tiny 0.1–1% of chronic violent offenders are driving a huge share of violent crime—and why real incarceration of repeat offenders still matters.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Attention. You're listening to the Todd Huff Show, America's Home, Poor, Conservative,
not Bitter Talk and Education. Be advised. The content of
this program has been talking about it two prevents and
even cure liberalism and listening may cause you to lean
to the right. And now coming to you from the
(00:29):
full suite Wealth Studios, here is your Conservative but not
Bitter host Todd Huff.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
My friends, have you followed this story, the Eon Andre
Roberts story. I don't. If you haven't, we're going to
talk about this today. I you know, here we are
the week of Thanksgiving. We've had heavy stuff. We've had
heavy stuff thrown at us for a long time. That
is just what you get when you live in a
world where there is a well at this particular point
(01:00):
in time, most of these things are not about politics.
We're talking things that are well between the lines of
good and evil. I mean, this is where a lot
of politics has taken us today. I know what's heavy.
I know we're at a short week, Thanksgiving week. It's
been just it's been wild, a wild year, a wild
(01:21):
few years. Heck, maybe even a wild decade, dating back
to the time Trump came down that escalator announcing his
candidacy and what June or whatever of twenty fifteen. Anyway,
I don't want to say that this is lighter. It is.
It is lighter, but it illustrates a larger problem with
illegal immigration, with voter registration, and I want to talk
(01:43):
about it today. If you've not followed this, you might
find this rather interesting. And for those who tell you
that we have the most secure elections in the history
of humanity, you might want to point them out to
You might want to point this particular story out to them.
That's where we're headed today, my friends. It is my

But whatever you decide to do, that's up to you.
Let's face it, though, living with discomfort can be tough,
(02:53):
and while prescriptions can help, prescription medications, those often come
with a very long list of side effects, not to
mention many of them carry with them the risk of dependency.
That's why more people are exploring natural options like kreatom
from Christopher's Organic Botanicals. It's a family reren company. They
(03:17):
do things the right way. They work directly with Indonesian
farmers who harvest the kreatim, and they test every match,
lab test it and make sure that it is ready
for consumption. There are no synthetics, no chemicals, no surprise,
is just honest natural kreatom that's been used for generations. Now.
(03:42):
The problems that you may have heard about concerning kreatim,
many of those, most of those, a large percentage of
those have to deal with synthetic blends or contaminated junk,
things like that. Real kreatim is usually not at all
the problem here. So Christophers can educate you on that
(04:03):
or go other places in search as well. But Christopher's

tradition transparency. Okay, so Eon Andre Roberts. You, depending upon
how much news you consume what you read, you may
(04:46):
or may not have heard of this individual. There was
a brief period of time, I think it was in
September that he actually was in the news in a
lot of places. In fact, I remember I remember posts,
you know, stories on social media of a of an
(05:07):
individual named Ian Andre Roberts who was the superintendent of
Des Moines Schools in Iowa. And I remember posts he
was a gentleman who had been arrested for captured or whatever,
my ice to be deported because he was not here legally.
(05:32):
And of course I remember seeing some social media posts
talking about he's a black individual. He was a superintendent,
and the immediate knee jerk reaction is, who is Ice
going after our school superintendent's what in the world are
they doing? And of course they targeted him because he's
a minority, he's black, whatever the narrative of the media
(05:54):
of the day is. Turns out, though, there's a lot
more to this story that you can't make this stuff up,
my friend. So let me tell you the story here.
So he's from Guyana. Originally, he entered the United States,
it's believed somewhere around nineteen ninety nine, on a student visa.
(06:16):
He has worked in multiple US school districts since that time.
In fact, he's risen to administrative rules and he's had
over twenty years of experience. Now in twenty twenty three
July of twenty twenty three, he was hired to be
the superintendent of schools at Des Moines des Moines, Iowa.
(06:40):
In Des Moines, Iowa, the school district there des Moines
Public Schools. It's the largest school district in Iowa at
the time he was hired. The time he was hired,
his immigration issues were not publicly disclosed or currently known
(07:01):
by the board. Now I want to pause there for
a moment. I've been self employed for some time, I
think about sixteen years now doing this program, having another
business which I've shared to you. That's where the red,
White and Brand business came from, was that we had
(07:24):
another business, some marketing, consultation, promotional products, that sort of stuff.
Started that in two thousand and nine. So here we
are twenty twenty five, So sixteen years ago. I've been
self employed that I know. By being so, you learn
a lot if you're self employed, if you're a business owner,
small business owner especially and don't have teams of people
(07:47):
that do these things for you, you have to learn. Oh,
in order to hire somebody, I've got to take these steps.
And there's a form that one has to fill out.
It's called an I nine form. You may depending upon
when you were hired or well, most people will have
unless they've worked there for over twenty five or thirty years,
(08:07):
will have filled out an I nine form basically supposed to,
you know, protect us from hiring people who are terrorists
and that sort of stuff. It's just another sheet of paper.
I don't know what it effectively does. I just know
that you have to go through the process of verifying
people's identity, which is tied, of course to some degree
(08:29):
to their legality. And so my first question is, I
am as I'm pulling together facts about this. They're hiring
of this individual who wasn't even supposed to be here.
How do they not know these things? How do they
not know these things? Now? He was given a final
(08:50):
order of removal this superintendent DSHA. The excoose ME DHS
Department of Homeland Security documents show that he was given
a final order of removal issued at least by at
least twenty twenty four. His student visa expiration was long
(09:14):
before that his student visa had expired. He was not
here legally. He had multiple immigration violations. I don't think
there's any way possible he should have gotten through the
hiring process at Des Moines Public Schools, But he did,
and he became the superintendent. For those of you who
don't know, and I know most of you do, but
we've got people from all different backgrounds and experienced levels
(09:36):
here as superintendent Listen. I was a school board member
twenty well about when this guy entered the country on
a student visa. I was a school board member from
two thousand until two thousand and four, and you know,
the school board oversees the policies, and they really have
one higher. The one higher the school board makes is
(09:57):
the superintendent of schools. The superintendent of schools basically takes
direction from the board. At least that's the way it's
supposed to be. There's many instances today where board members
take direction from the superintendent and not the other way around.
The truth is, though, you know, there should be back
and forth. There are things that superintendents know and understand
(10:19):
that regular average people who are on the school board need,
you know, expertise on from the superintendent or from the
school's legal counsel or whatever. But the decision still lies
it should with the board, the school board, and so,
but they hire the one employee that's the superintendent. The
(10:40):
superintendent then of course hires his office staff and also
the principles and then you know, depending upon the district,
but you know, principals are hiring the teachers and all
that sort of stuff. But at all, if you look
at the structural hierarchy in an organization like a public school,
the board of directors at the top and directly below
(11:02):
them is the superintendent. So he's the he or she
is the most highly paid person on staff. In fact,
some of these people make incredible amounts of money. I know,
I understand. You have to pay people at least somewhat comparably,
or it's got to be an attractive package to draw
(11:24):
them from the private sector. If they're executives of this level,
you've got to have packages that attract them. But at
the same time, some of these compensation plans have become
absolutely astonishingly ludicrous if you ask me. But nonetheless, he
was hired for that role. He was hired for that role,
but he was not supposed to be here. He was
(11:46):
given a final order of removal. So in twenty twenty four,
Iowa Media in the state of Iowa, they obtained DHS record,
these records and questions here. These records, the reports, the records,
(12:06):
the paperwork showed that there was an expired visa, there
was a removal order, and of course it's unclear, as
I mentioned earlier, how he passed the background checks and
just how he got there to be a leader of
an entire school district, the largest school district in the
state of Iowa. The Des Moines Public School statement was
(12:28):
they were unaware of his immigration status at the time
of hiring. In mid twenty twenty four, pressure was building
on this. He left the superintendent and Roberts left the role.
Reports different as to whether or not it was he
(12:54):
resigned or he was terminated. There's, of course no record
provided publicly showing that he was well that there's a
that whether or not he's been removed officially from this
country or not. So that's what's happened there. It gets
(13:15):
deeper than that. Though, it gets deeper than that. I'm
gonna continue. It's not just it's bad enough that the
De Moine Public School System hired somebody who was illegally
here as they're superintendent. This, of course, was an individual
that the media and people on social media defended as
(13:38):
being someone who was inappropriately targeted by Trump. Well, just
let's let's just sit there for a moment, and I'm
gonna shift gears to the other part of the story.
But why is there an immediate knee jerk reaction. I've
talked about this on the program a lot. I don't
necessarily want to be the first person to formulate an
opinion on something. I there are a lot of people
(14:01):
out there that take great pleasure in that. Well, I
knew it first. I knew at first. Okay, well did
you know it right? Did you understand it correctly? Did
you come to the right conclusion. I always use the
example of reporting that was done when the Supreme Court
ruling on the Obamacare case came out, and there were
(14:23):
people that were sitting out there. They got the Court's ruling,
they flipped through it, and some people told their audience
I was listening to this live. Some people told their
audience the wrong thing because there was pressure to get
the information out quickly, to be the first to report it.
And some people flat out got it wrong. They misunderstood,
(14:45):
and in fairness, it was a very peculiar case. Many
people think that Justice John Roberts actually changed his vote
from the time they cast the initial ballot until the
time the final court decision was and published. But the
bottom line is they got it wrong. I would rather
(15:06):
get it right and not be the first to get
it right if it means that I might get it
wrong because I'm in a hurry and I'm in a rush.
But that's unfortunately not how many people respond and believe
things should be decided here. In fact, in this country today,
if someone does something wrong, if there's an alleged wrongdoing,
(15:29):
many people say, well, what's the race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation,
all these things of the person. Once I know those,
I've got point two seconds to decide whether I'm four,
you know, on their side or on the other side,
which is a preposterate. It's just preposterous to deal with
things that way. But that's the world that we live in.
(15:50):
Everything is superficial. We are a skin deep culture. It
is a major, major problem. That's why we don't have thinkers.
That's why we have people that get caught up in
the narratives and the hashtags. And it is maddening to
someone who understands, like the majority, the vast majority of
people listening to me today, understand that context matters, that
(16:13):
nuance matters, that we must understand the details before we
formulate an opinion. But that's not how many people see this.
They see a black man who is superintendent of a
public school system, and if he's being deported it has
to be because Ice is racist and Trump is racist.
(16:33):
And of course this is just insane because that's not
the case at all. As we as we went through
that case, now there's more to this. There's even more
to this, and it involves another state. And it's a state.
If you remember Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was just a
Maryland father, just a Maryland man taking care of his family.
(16:55):
It's from that state of Maryland. This is Maryland gets
tied up in this mess as well, and instead of
it just being a case about illegal immigration, it now
has to do with voter registration and the individual here
in question, ion Andre Roberts. So that's where we're going next.
(17:18):
Before we get there, my friends, your investments are like
seeds you plant, They grow, they multiply, but are they
burying the kind of fruit you want? At four eight Financial,
they believe your money should reflect your values. They specialize
in wealth management and biblically responsible investing, screening out companies
(17:39):
that do not align with your faith. It's all part
of their purpose centered financial planning, helping you live a
life of meaning and purpose. Now you can see if
your investments align with your values, or perhaps the better
way of saying it, you can see to what degree
your investments align with your values. You can go and
(18:01):
take an assessment. You'll find it on their website. Specifically,
here's the page for eightfinancial dot com slash todd again.
Jot this down if you're curious, if you want your
investments to be aligned with what you believe, you can
take this assessment at four eight financial dot com slash
(18:22):
todd Again, that's for eightfinancial dot com slash todd for
eight Financial. They're here to worry about your money, so
you don't have to. Okay. As I mentioned, there's more
to this story, and it gets juic here by the minute. Here, So,
Maryland voter records listed eon Andre Roberts, who we've been
(18:47):
talking about here this morning as a registered Democrat voter.
Now to go through the facts, Roberts is not a
US citizen. He is under a final order of removal.
It's unclear, at least from what I could tell, whether
or not he's been deported yet or not. Non citizens
(19:08):
we all know this. Supposedly, non citizens cannot legally register
to vote, at least federally. We know that some cities,
because of things that literally make zero sense, some cities
have allowed non citizens to vote in local elections, which,
(19:29):
of course what could go wrong there, But they're not
supposed to be able to vote legally on the national scale.
Maryland supposedly initiating an investigation into this, which, again, if
you want them to know my opinion on this, I
think this is an investigation design to protect Maryland, to
(19:52):
tell voters that this is a one and a brazillion
most improbable thing in the history of in the history
of voting. This guy wasn't supposed to be voted. They'll
tell us that we've got safeguards in place, They'll tell
us that this is not a widespread problem. They'll tell
us there's nothing to worry about, nothing to see here,
(20:13):
and they have in early they have acknowledged that there
was an error. So far, what they've said is it's
a potential DMV linked auto registration. That's the motor voter
process where you're auto registered if you have some sort
of an encounter with the DMV, which again that leads
(20:37):
me to other stories out there, which I don't think
I have these in the stack of stuff today, but
I've been looking at these over the past few weeks because,
for example, here in Indiana, there was a fatality recently
tragic fatality of someone in the Indiana National Guard, I
think traveling on I sixty five in Boone County, which
(21:01):
is just north and west of Indianapolis, and they were
struck in an accident and one of those members of
the Indian International Guard died in the accident. Turns out
that the person driving the truck who was who had
hit the individual was had an illegal license. That this
(21:22):
is a problem that this happened in Florida. We've talked
about that on this program. There's been a ton of
licenses issued by states like California to people who aren't
even supposed to be here legally, or they're not here legally.
It's just a mess on every level. And now there's
(21:42):
these auto registration programs that say if you have some
sort of a what I want to say a I
don't see encounter, but some sort of business transaction with
the Department of Motor Vehicles, then you can be registered
automatically to vote. But you can see the problem with
the logic here. Now we have people being registered, at
(22:06):
least in this case, who are not legally qualified to vote. Now,
so far what we know, there's no evidence that he
actually cast ballots. The only evidence is that he was registered.
Of course, Maryland is reviewing how the data was entered
(22:26):
in which systems failed, folks. I don't know from the
perspective of the left if this was a failure. The
failure was that this individual has gotten caught. That's the failure.
The failure is that this might be much more widespread
than we ever. Well, some of you might have the
many would not have dreamt that it be this possible
(22:47):
to have wides widespread frauds. So going to pause there,
take a time out, my friends. You're listening here to
the home of Conservative not Better Talk. I'm your host,
Todd Huff. Back here, my friends in just a minute.
Welcome back, my friends. That's about I was thinking during
the break, that's about as much. Well, that's the end
(23:11):
of the story, so to speak, but it's not the
end of the problem. And I want to talk about
that really quickly. And then I want to shift into
some crime and incarceration data that should not surprise anybody
as well. This is predictable stuff, but there's some people
out there who are utterly confused about who commits crime. Actually,
(23:34):
I would say this data I'm about to share with
you is going to probably surprise everybody. Not necessarily who
is committing the violent crime, but to what extent the
violent crime is being committed by a very small group
of people. And I don't mean I'm talking about individually.
(23:56):
I'm not talking about a group of people. I'm talking
about whoever it is that makes up the violent group.
Very small percentage of people who commit violent crimes, they're
committing them at very high rates. So it's all coming
basically from the same people who are repeating these acts
of violence. And I just want to share that because
(24:18):
some people were amazed out there today that incarceration actually
helps keep crime rates low because the people committing the
crimes are not out on the streets able to commit them.
I don't know why that would be surprising to anybody,
but we want to talk about it because again, we've
got leftists out there that we encounter in the workforce,
(24:38):
in our communities, that's on little league sports teams, in
our schools, whatever, that need to be made aware of
the facts that the data, the science supports what we
all knew people with brains and cognitive abilities, what we've
all known for a long time. So that's where we're headed.
(24:59):
But I do I want to say a few more
words about what we found out about this voter registration
in Maryland. I'll get to that in a moment. Friends,
I know you care about this country, but you can't
fight for America if you're not taking care of yourself.
That's why I'm here to tell you about Solty. It's
an all natural, clinically proven supplement that lowers cholesterol safely.
(25:24):
There are no prescriptions, there are no doctors visits. This
is not a drug. It's a natural supplement. It's been
proven to work. I take it, and I think if
you've got heart problems, cholesterol concerns, or even if you're
just aging, I think you should at least think about
it as well. So you can find more information or

code Todd against Salty dot com s O L T
e A promo code Todd. Okay, a couple of concluding
thoughts before we get into this crime and incarceration data
that I've referenced. It's amazing to me when you have
a debate, a conversation or a debate with people, you
can immediately find out or pretty quickly you can find
(26:32):
out if they're committed to uncovering and realizing truth or
if they are a apologist for their political party. You
can find this out very quickly. Some people, they look
at the list of issues for the day, They look
(26:54):
down the list and say, here's what my party says
and believes. And I'm gonna toe the line. I'm not
going to, you know, criticize. I'm just going if someone
says something the opposite of these issues, I'm going to
dig my heels in and I'm not going to budge
because apparently I think some people think, you know, if
(27:15):
the party's wrong on one thing, if my ideology is
wrong in one area, it completely collapses. That doesn't necessarily follow.
It depends if it's a fundamental foundational component of your ideology,
or if it's something that you've drawn a conclusion to.
You can make wrong conclusions. And I think we should
(27:35):
all be interested in hearing and receiving truth. That's the mission.
By the way of this program. And I know, listen,
I know it's tempting you think, Hey, this guy they've
got it all together over there at the todd Have Show.
They know what's going on. I know it's easy to
think that, But we don't, my friends, We don't have
it all figured out. But I understand why you think
we do. But the truth is, when we come to
(27:59):
theation or it's been revealed to us, a truth has
been revealed to us, we better hang on to that.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
It turns out it's much better to live in harmony
with truth than it is to try to fight truth.
And there's truths, some truths that are very I don't know,
fulfilling and very freeing to come to the realization of.
There's other truths that are mildly terrifying. When you think
(28:26):
about who the political opponents are and what they want
to accomplish, how much they hate liberty and all that
sort of stuff. When you look at how bad this
world is, how bad human nature can be. That's a
real gut punch to many people to think that humanity
can do some of the atrocious things that it has done.
For example, you hear people talk about climate change and
how it's going to be killing all these people. I
(28:49):
think this whole thing is ludicrous. I think that it's
you know that there's a lot of emotion there. They
want to blame humanity for this so that government can
come in and grow and acts people and take away
choices and redistribute wealth and all of that. But let's
face it, even if their predictions are true, if you
(29:10):
compare the evils of humanity to what they say the
evils of climate change are, these things are nowhere near
comparable to one another. Humanity has been its greatest enemy.
Humanity has committed unspeakable evil, and the truth is, as
fallen creatures who have turned our backs, thumbed our nose,
(29:34):
done much worse to the creator of this universe. We're
capable of bad things, and so truth matters whether we're
understanding the truth of some of the aspirational things of
humanity and some of the ideas that we have in
place here in this country, some of the blessings we
have been given here in this country, all of that,
(29:56):
but also the bad things coming to realization, coming into
alignment with the way things are, and then doing our
best to have a positive impact on society. So that
society chooses to do the things that are aligned with
the freedom, aligned with faith, aligned with integrity and morality,
(30:18):
instead of heading down this path of absolute moral depravity.
And that's where the left has taken us. And they're prepared.
Not only are they is their worldview and ideology absolutely
and utterly morally bankrupt. They're prepared to do whatever it takes.
This is the Seinfeld Newman strategy. Whatever it takes as
long as it takes them, so long as it takes
(30:39):
Trump away from sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue the White House,
but also as long as it takes anybody in their
path out of political powers so that they can achieve
more power, more control, you get less liberty, higher taxes.
That's what these folks are prepared to do. And listen
(30:59):
why people are in favor of some of these policies
that allow this example of this individual being able to
register be auto registered to vote in Maryland as someone
who should not be allowed to register to vote. Why
we are making this just ridiculously simple, so simple in fact,
(31:24):
that it becomes rife with opportunities for dramatic fraud to
take place is beyond me. And of course if you
talk about election integrity. You have one side who says
Conservatives Republicans are trying to silence certain voters, not give
them the right to vote. Yeah, I am trying to
silence certain voters, you know, the voters. I'm trying to
(31:45):
silence the voters who shouldn't be voting. Those are the
ones that I want to silence. Those ballots. We're never
going to get to zero ballots that are cast illegally,
but we want to drive it down as much as
possible to legal ballots. I did today's Todd talk on
a similar topic, something that Eric Swalwell, who's running for
(32:05):
governor of California currently a lunatic leftist congressman from the
People's Republic of California. But of course reasonable people would say,
we want voting to be as easy as possible, as
efficient as possible without becoming a burden to the people,
while ensuring that we have elections that are safe and secure,
(32:28):
that prevent as much fraud and registering of people that
shouldn't be voting, like Ian Andre Roberts apparently was in
the state of Maryland. Reasonable people understand you need a
voter identification, you need some sort of physical ID when
you cast a ballot to be able to do so.
The left fights against this stuff at each and every step.
(32:51):
They want automatic registrations, They want ballots going out in
the mail all over the place. They don't want you
to have to provide a voter ID. They don't want
to clean voter rule because, my friends, I think when
the dust settles, we will find that they have abused
this in ways that will be astonishing once we get
an idea of just the level of this particular depravity.
(33:15):
And I'm at the end of this segment, I do
want to shift in the next segment and talk about
what I mentioned here earlier, which is crime and incarceration
data that has shocked people on the left, and that
of course should not shock us, because this is in
perfect alignment with what a reasonable person would have concluded.
(33:35):
Maybe not the numbers and the percentages or the proportion
I should say of how many of just how small
the truly violent criminal aspect is here in our country,
but how much they repeatedly commit violent crimes. We'll get
to that after the break of My friends, Sit tight.
You're listening to the home of Conservative not Better Talk.
(33:56):
I am your host. The one and only Tod Huff
back here in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends,
here to the Full Sweet Wealth Studios on this very
short Thanksgiving week. In fact, tomorrow, tomorrow is I probably
(34:17):
shouldn't have my favorite episode of the year, but I do.
I do have my favorite episode of the year, and
it is tomorrow. We'll be carrying on the tradition that
was started by the late Great Rush Limbaugh telling the
true story of Thanksgiving. I love it. I love it
with I just look forward to it. I enjoyed hearing
(34:38):
it as a member of his audience all those years ago,
and I look forward to sharing it a to share
the story, but also to remember his legacy and how
much he impacted the conservative movement. So I'm looking forward
to that. I hope you will join us for that.
(34:59):
I hope you have a be Thanksgiving as well. All right,
So I want to talk here in a moment about
these crime statistics and get through these as best I can.
But folks, have you ever noticed how families, some families

That's full sweet wealth dot com. Build your legacy, secure
your future. Okay, and the time I have remaining here,
we're going to talk about crime and incarceration data which
(36:04):
has shocked the radical left. So Sweden did a national
study and this stuff is all a posted on our
website if you want to dig in deep. Obviously I
can't get into it, but they studied individuals born in
Sweden between nineteen fifty eight and nineteen eighty. The total
population was roughly two point four million people, and they
(36:28):
looked at the time period of convictions dating from nineteen
seventy three until two thousand and four. So this is
a long survey looking at a generation of people who
had been convicted of crimes in Sweden. They found that
persistent violent offenders, these were individuals with three or more
(36:51):
violent crimes, constituted twenty four three hundred and forty two
people out of the two point four million people. That
means that about one percent one percent of the total
population was represented by persistent offenders. That one percent. Let
(37:11):
this sink in, that one percent accounted for sixty three
point two percent of all violent crime convictions in this
data set. Those with eleven or more violent crime convictions
represented zero point one percent of the overall population. They
(37:35):
accounted for roughly twenty percent of all violent crime convictions.
Forget about the eighty twenty rule, this is the point
one percent twenty percent rule. So you've got point one
percent of the population committing twenty percent of the of
the violent crime convictions in Sweden, which is absolutely incredible. Oakland,
(37:58):
California studies here reports analyzing the twenty nineteen Oakland crime data.
They focused on homicide offenders. They used local law enforcement
and prosecutorial data. What they found was, again, point one
percent of Oakland's population committed the majority of homicides in
(38:24):
the period referenced. So again, that's over half of the
of murders of homicides, point one percent of Oakland's population
committed the majority more than half of all homicides. Unbelievable.
This indicates that there is an extreme concentration of violence
(38:48):
within a tiny group of individuals who have become chronic offenders.
US Federal violent offender recidifism this was a US Sentencing
Commission report examined federal violent offenders released back in twenty ten.
(39:08):
Sixty three percent of released federal violent offenders were rearrested
for either a new offense or a supervision violation. That
was over an eight year periods. Over eight years. People
who were released for violent crime in twenty ten, almost
(39:29):
two thirds of them were re arrested within an eight
year period of time. I mean, I can go through
there's more data here, but the bottom line here is
this right now, one of the many, many issues vying
for our at tension in this nation is how we
deal with violent crime. You have one group of people
(39:49):
who want to excuse it. You have one group of
people who want to say that we're all collectively responsible
for the choices of everybody else, but we're not in
individually responsible for ourselves. This is the radical left. By
the way, they build policy on this, they want to
make excuses. They want to basically never hold people accountable
(40:12):
for their violent actions, or they rarely do. And then
you have another side, well, people like me, and I
think the vast majority of you, who want criminals to
face the consequences of their actions. I don't want certain
crimes that are administrative to have the book thrown at them,
(40:34):
but folks, violent offenders, violent offenders should absolutely be dealing
with serious consequences. The data now even supports that, in
addition to common sense. But I've got to go talk
to you tomorrow. SDG
Attention. You're listening to the Todd Huff Show, America's Home, Poor, Conservative,
not Bitter Talk and Education. Be advised. The content of
this program has been talking about it two prevents and
even cure liberalism and listening may cause you to lean
to the right. And now coming to you from the
(00:29):
full suite Wealth Studios, here is your Conservative but not
Bitter host Todd Huff.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
My friends, have you followed this story, the Eon Andre
Roberts story. I don't. If you haven't, we're going to
talk about this today. I you know, here we are
the week of Thanksgiving. We've had heavy stuff. We've had
heavy stuff thrown at us for a long time. That
is just what you get when you live in a
world where there is a well at this particular point
(01:00):
in time, most of these things are not about politics.
We're talking things that are well between the lines of
good and evil. I mean, this is where a lot
of politics has taken us today. I know what's heavy.
I know we're at a short week, Thanksgiving week. It's
been just it's been wild, a wild year, a wild
(01:21):
few years. Heck, maybe even a wild decade, dating back
to the time Trump came down that escalator announcing his
candidacy and what June or whatever of twenty fifteen. Anyway,
I don't want to say that this is lighter. It is.
It is lighter, but it illustrates a larger problem with
illegal immigration, with voter registration, and I want to talk
(01:43):
about it today. If you've not followed this, you might
find this rather interesting. And for those who tell you
that we have the most secure elections in the history
of humanity, you might want to point them out to
You might want to point this particular story out to them.
That's where we're headed today, my friends. It is my
absolute pleasure to be here with you today. If you
(02:05):
want to be a part of the conversation, I invite
you to reach out tod at todepshow dot com. Or
you can subscribe to our free newsletter. It's a daily
email newsletter. You can go online to tidupshow dot com
excuse me and sign up. There's totally free to get

(02:29):
be able to kind of interact a little bit more there.
There's some things that will post there that we don't
talk about, some polls from time to time. It gives
you direct daily access to me where you can chime
in with your thoughts or feedback, and I get all
those my friends, and I welcome you to sign up.
But whatever you decide to do, that's up to you.
Let's face it, though, living with discomfort can be tough,
(02:53):
and while prescriptions can help, prescription medications, those often come
with a very long list of side effects, not to
mention many of them carry with them the risk of dependency.
That's why more people are exploring natural options like kreatom
from Christopher's Organic Botanicals. It's a family reren company. They
(03:17):
do things the right way. They work directly with Indonesian
farmers who harvest the kreatim, and they test every match,
lab test it and make sure that it is ready
for consumption. There are no synthetics, no chemicals, no surprise,
is just honest natural kreatom that's been used for generations. Now.
(03:42):
The problems that you may have heard about concerning kreatim,
many of those, most of those, a large percentage of
those have to deal with synthetic blends or contaminated junk,
things like that. Real kreatim is usually not at all
the problem here. So Christophers can educate you on that
(04:03):
or go other places in search as well. But Christopher's
believes in making sure you make educated decisions about what's
best for you in your situation. So but they keep
it clean and they keep you informed. You can start
with their creative Starter pack. All you have to do
is use code Todd Huff during the checkout process. You'll

save ten percent off your first order. Visit Christopher's Organic
Botanicals dot com as Christopher's Organic Botanicals dot Com True
tradition transparency. Okay, so Eon Andre Roberts. You, depending upon
how much news you consume what you read, you may
(04:46):
or may not have heard of this individual. There was
a brief period of time, I think it was in
September that he actually was in the news in a
lot of places. In fact, I remember I remember posts,
you know, stories on social media of a of an
(05:07):
individual named Ian Andre Roberts who was the superintendent of
Des Moines Schools in Iowa. And I remember posts he
was a gentleman who had been arrested for captured or whatever,
my ice to be deported because he was not here legally.
(05:32):
And of course I remember seeing some social media posts
talking about he's a black individual. He was a superintendent,
and the immediate knee jerk reaction is, who is Ice
going after our school superintendent's what in the world are
they doing? And of course they targeted him because he's
a minority, he's black, whatever the narrative of the media
(05:54):
of the day is. Turns out, though, there's a lot
more to this story that you can't make this stuff up,
my friend. So let me tell you the story here.
So he's from Guyana. Originally, he entered the United States,
it's believed somewhere around nineteen ninety nine, on a student visa.
(06:16):
He has worked in multiple US school districts since that time.
In fact, he's risen to administrative rules and he's had
over twenty years of experience. Now in twenty twenty three
July of twenty twenty three, he was hired to be
the superintendent of schools at Des Moines des Moines, Iowa.
(06:40):
In Des Moines, Iowa, the school district there des Moines
Public Schools. It's the largest school district in Iowa at
the time he was hired. The time he was hired,
his immigration issues were not publicly disclosed or currently known
(07:01):
by the board. Now I want to pause there for
a moment. I've been self employed for some time, I
think about sixteen years now doing this program, having another
business which I've shared to you. That's where the red,
White and Brand business came from, was that we had
(07:24):
another business, some marketing, consultation, promotional products, that sort of stuff.
Started that in two thousand and nine. So here we
are twenty twenty five, So sixteen years ago. I've been
self employed that I know. By being so, you learn
a lot if you're self employed, if you're a business owner,
small business owner especially and don't have teams of people
(07:47):
that do these things for you, you have to learn. Oh,
in order to hire somebody, I've got to take these steps.
And there's a form that one has to fill out.
It's called an I nine form. You may depending upon
when you were hired or well, most people will have
unless they've worked there for over twenty five or thirty years,
(08:07):
will have filled out an I nine form basically supposed to,
you know, protect us from hiring people who are terrorists
and that sort of stuff. It's just another sheet of paper.
I don't know what it effectively does. I just know
that you have to go through the process of verifying
people's identity, which is tied, of course to some degree
(08:29):
to their legality. And so my first question is, I
am as I'm pulling together facts about this. They're hiring
of this individual who wasn't even supposed to be here.
How do they not know these things? How do they
not know these things? Now? He was given a final
(08:50):
order of removal this superintendent DSHA. The excoose ME DHS
Department of Homeland Security documents show that he was given
a final order of removal issued at least by at
least twenty twenty four. His student visa expiration was long
(09:14):
before that his student visa had expired. He was not
here legally. He had multiple immigration violations. I don't think
there's any way possible he should have gotten through the
hiring process at Des Moines Public Schools, But he did,
and he became the superintendent. For those of you who
don't know, and I know most of you do, but
we've got people from all different backgrounds and experienced levels
(09:36):
here as superintendent Listen. I was a school board member
twenty well about when this guy entered the country on
a student visa. I was a school board member from
two thousand until two thousand and four, and you know,
the school board oversees the policies, and they really have
one higher. The one higher the school board makes is
(09:57):
the superintendent of schools. The superintendent of schools basically takes
direction from the board. At least that's the way it's
supposed to be. There's many instances today where board members
take direction from the superintendent and not the other way around.
The truth is, though, you know, there should be back
and forth. There are things that superintendents know and understand
(10:19):
that regular average people who are on the school board need,
you know, expertise on from the superintendent or from the
school's legal counsel or whatever. But the decision still lies
it should with the board, the school board, and so,
but they hire the one employee that's the superintendent. The
(10:40):
superintendent then of course hires his office staff and also
the principles and then you know, depending upon the district,
but you know, principals are hiring the teachers and all
that sort of stuff. But at all, if you look
at the structural hierarchy in an organization like a public school,
the board of directors at the top and directly below
(11:02):
them is the superintendent. So he's the he or she
is the most highly paid person on staff. In fact,
some of these people make incredible amounts of money. I know,
I understand. You have to pay people at least somewhat comparably,
or it's got to be an attractive package to draw
(11:24):
them from the private sector. If they're executives of this level,
you've got to have packages that attract them. But at
the same time, some of these compensation plans have become
absolutely astonishingly ludicrous if you ask me. But nonetheless, he
was hired for that role. He was hired for that role,
but he was not supposed to be here. He was
(11:46):
given a final order of removal. So in twenty twenty four,
Iowa Media in the state of Iowa, they obtained DHS record,
these records and questions here. These records, the reports, the records,
(12:06):
the paperwork showed that there was an expired visa, there
was a removal order, and of course it's unclear, as
I mentioned earlier, how he passed the background checks and
just how he got there to be a leader of
an entire school district, the largest school district in the
state of Iowa. The Des Moines Public School statement was
(12:28):
they were unaware of his immigration status at the time
of hiring. In mid twenty twenty four, pressure was building
on this. He left the superintendent and Roberts left the role.
Reports different as to whether or not it was he
(12:54):
resigned or he was terminated. There's, of course no record
provided publicly showing that he was well that there's a
that whether or not he's been removed officially from this
country or not. So that's what's happened there. It gets
(13:15):
deeper than that. Though, it gets deeper than that. I'm
gonna continue. It's not just it's bad enough that the
De Moine Public School System hired somebody who was illegally
here as they're superintendent. This, of course, was an individual
that the media and people on social media defended as
(13:38):
being someone who was inappropriately targeted by Trump. Well, just
let's let's just sit there for a moment, and I'm
gonna shift gears to the other part of the story.
But why is there an immediate knee jerk reaction. I've
talked about this on the program a lot. I don't
necessarily want to be the first person to formulate an
opinion on something. I there are a lot of people
(14:01):
out there that take great pleasure in that. Well, I
knew it first. I knew at first. Okay, well did
you know it right? Did you understand it correctly? Did
you come to the right conclusion. I always use the
example of reporting that was done when the Supreme Court
ruling on the Obamacare case came out, and there were
(14:23):
people that were sitting out there. They got the Court's ruling,
they flipped through it, and some people told their audience
I was listening to this live. Some people told their
audience the wrong thing because there was pressure to get
the information out quickly, to be the first to report it.
And some people flat out got it wrong. They misunderstood,
(14:45):
and in fairness, it was a very peculiar case. Many
people think that Justice John Roberts actually changed his vote
from the time they cast the initial ballot until the
time the final court decision was and published. But the
bottom line is they got it wrong. I would rather
(15:06):
get it right and not be the first to get
it right if it means that I might get it
wrong because I'm in a hurry and I'm in a rush.
But that's unfortunately not how many people respond and believe
things should be decided here. In fact, in this country today,
if someone does something wrong, if there's an alleged wrongdoing,
(15:29):
many people say, well, what's the race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation,
all these things of the person. Once I know those,
I've got point two seconds to decide whether I'm four,
you know, on their side or on the other side,
which is a preposterate. It's just preposterous to deal with
things that way. But that's the world that we live in.
(15:50):
Everything is superficial. We are a skin deep culture. It
is a major, major problem. That's why we don't have thinkers.
That's why we have people that get caught up in
the narratives and the hashtags. And it is maddening to
someone who understands, like the majority, the vast majority of
people listening to me today, understand that context matters, that
(16:13):
nuance matters, that we must understand the details before we
formulate an opinion. But that's not how many people see this.
They see a black man who is superintendent of a
public school system, and if he's being deported it has
to be because Ice is racist and Trump is racist.
(16:33):
And of course this is just insane because that's not
the case at all. As we as we went through
that case, now there's more to this. There's even more
to this, and it involves another state. And it's a state.
If you remember Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was just a
Maryland father, just a Maryland man taking care of his family.
(16:55):
It's from that state of Maryland. This is Maryland gets
tied up in this mess as well, and instead of
it just being a case about illegal immigration, it now
has to do with voter registration and the individual here
in question, ion Andre Roberts. So that's where we're going next.
(17:18):
Before we get there, my friends, your investments are like
seeds you plant, They grow, they multiply, but are they
burying the kind of fruit you want? At four eight Financial,
they believe your money should reflect your values. They specialize
in wealth management and biblically responsible investing, screening out companies
(17:39):
that do not align with your faith. It's all part
of their purpose centered financial planning, helping you live a
life of meaning and purpose. Now you can see if
your investments align with your values, or perhaps the better
way of saying it, you can see to what degree
your investments align with your values. You can go and
(18:01):
take an assessment. You'll find it on their website. Specifically,
here's the page for eightfinancial dot com slash todd again.
Jot this down if you're curious, if you want your
investments to be aligned with what you believe, you can
take this assessment at four eight financial dot com slash
(18:22):
todd Again, that's for eightfinancial dot com slash todd for
eight Financial. They're here to worry about your money, so
you don't have to. Okay. As I mentioned, there's more
to this story, and it gets juic here by the minute. Here, So,
Maryland voter records listed eon Andre Roberts, who we've been
(18:47):
talking about here this morning as a registered Democrat voter.
Now to go through the facts, Roberts is not a
US citizen. He is under a final order of removal.
It's unclear, at least from what I could tell, whether
or not he's been deported yet or not. Non citizens
(19:08):
we all know this. Supposedly, non citizens cannot legally register
to vote, at least federally. We know that some cities,
because of things that literally make zero sense, some cities
have allowed non citizens to vote in local elections, which,
(19:29):
of course what could go wrong there, But they're not
supposed to be able to vote legally on the national scale.
Maryland supposedly initiating an investigation into this, which, again, if
you want them to know my opinion on this, I
think this is an investigation design to protect Maryland, to
(19:52):
tell voters that this is a one and a brazillion
most improbable thing in the history of in the history
of voting. This guy wasn't supposed to be voted. They'll
tell us that we've got safeguards in place, They'll tell
us that this is not a widespread problem. They'll tell
us there's nothing to worry about, nothing to see here,
(20:13):
and they have in early they have acknowledged that there
was an error. So far, what they've said is it's
a potential DMV linked auto registration. That's the motor voter
process where you're auto registered if you have some sort
of an encounter with the DMV, which again that leads
(20:37):
me to other stories out there, which I don't think
I have these in the stack of stuff today, but
I've been looking at these over the past few weeks because,
for example, here in Indiana, there was a fatality recently
tragic fatality of someone in the Indiana National Guard, I
think traveling on I sixty five in Boone County, which
(21:01):
is just north and west of Indianapolis, and they were
struck in an accident and one of those members of
the Indian International Guard died in the accident. Turns out
that the person driving the truck who was who had
hit the individual was had an illegal license. That this
(21:22):
is a problem that this happened in Florida. We've talked
about that on this program. There's been a ton of
licenses issued by states like California to people who aren't
even supposed to be here legally, or they're not here legally.
It's just a mess on every level. And now there's
(21:42):
these auto registration programs that say if you have some
sort of a what I want to say a I
don't see encounter, but some sort of business transaction with
the Department of Motor Vehicles, then you can be registered
automatically to vote. But you can see the problem with
the logic here. Now we have people being registered, at
(22:06):
least in this case, who are not legally qualified to vote. Now,
so far what we know, there's no evidence that he
actually cast ballots. The only evidence is that he was registered.
Of course, Maryland is reviewing how the data was entered
(22:26):
in which systems failed, folks. I don't know from the
perspective of the left if this was a failure. The
failure was that this individual has gotten caught. That's the failure.
The failure is that this might be much more widespread
than we ever. Well, some of you might have the
many would not have dreamt that it be this possible
(22:47):
to have wides widespread frauds. So going to pause there,
take a time out, my friends. You're listening here to
the home of Conservative not Better Talk. I'm your host,
Todd Huff. Back here, my friends in just a minute.
Welcome back, my friends. That's about I was thinking during
the break, that's about as much. Well, that's the end
(23:11):
of the story, so to speak, but it's not the
end of the problem. And I want to talk about
that really quickly. And then I want to shift into
some crime and incarceration data that should not surprise anybody
as well. This is predictable stuff, but there's some people
out there who are utterly confused about who commits crime. Actually,
(23:34):
I would say this data I'm about to share with
you is going to probably surprise everybody. Not necessarily who
is committing the violent crime, but to what extent the
violent crime is being committed by a very small group
of people. And I don't mean I'm talking about individually.
(23:56):
I'm not talking about a group of people. I'm talking
about whoever it is that makes up the violent group.
Very small percentage of people who commit violent crimes, they're
committing them at very high rates. So it's all coming
basically from the same people who are repeating these acts
of violence. And I just want to share that because
(24:18):
some people were amazed out there today that incarceration actually
helps keep crime rates low because the people committing the
crimes are not out on the streets able to commit them.
I don't know why that would be surprising to anybody,
but we want to talk about it because again, we've
got leftists out there that we encounter in the workforce,
(24:38):
in our communities, that's on little league sports teams, in
our schools, whatever, that need to be made aware of
the facts that the data, the science supports what we
all knew people with brains and cognitive abilities, what we've
all known for a long time. So that's where we're headed.
(24:59):
But I do I want to say a few more
words about what we found out about this voter registration
in Maryland. I'll get to that in a moment. Friends,
I know you care about this country, but you can't
fight for America if you're not taking care of yourself.
That's why I'm here to tell you about Solty. It's
an all natural, clinically proven supplement that lowers cholesterol safely.
(25:24):
There are no prescriptions, there are no doctors visits. This
is not a drug. It's a natural supplement. It's been
proven to work. I take it, and I think if
you've got heart problems, cholesterol concerns, or even if you're
just aging, I think you should at least think about
it as well. So you can find more information or

code Todd against Salty dot com s O L T
e A promo code Todd. Okay, a couple of concluding
thoughts before we get into this crime and incarceration data
that I've referenced. It's amazing to me when you have
a debate, a conversation or a debate with people, you
can immediately find out or pretty quickly you can find
(26:32):
out if they're committed to uncovering and realizing truth or
if they are a apologist for their political party. You
can find this out very quickly. Some people, they look
at the list of issues for the day, They look
(26:54):
down the list and say, here's what my party says
and believes. And I'm gonna toe the line. I'm not
going to, you know, criticize. I'm just going if someone
says something the opposite of these issues, I'm going to
dig my heels in and I'm not going to budge
because apparently I think some people think, you know, if
(27:15):
the party's wrong on one thing, if my ideology is
wrong in one area, it completely collapses. That doesn't necessarily follow.
It depends if it's a fundamental foundational component of your ideology,
or if it's something that you've drawn a conclusion to.
You can make wrong conclusions. And I think we should
(27:35):
all be interested in hearing and receiving truth. That's the mission.
By the way of this program. And I know, listen,
I know it's tempting you think, Hey, this guy they've
got it all together over there at the todd Have Show.
They know what's going on. I know it's easy to
think that, But we don't, my friends, We don't have
it all figured out. But I understand why you think
we do. But the truth is, when we come to
(27:59):
theation or it's been revealed to us, a truth has
been revealed to us, we better hang on to that.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
It turns out it's much better to live in harmony
with truth than it is to try to fight truth.
And there's truths, some truths that are very I don't know,
fulfilling and very freeing to come to the realization of.
There's other truths that are mildly terrifying. When you think
(28:26):
about who the political opponents are and what they want
to accomplish, how much they hate liberty and all that
sort of stuff. When you look at how bad this
world is, how bad human nature can be. That's a
real gut punch to many people to think that humanity
can do some of the atrocious things that it has done.
For example, you hear people talk about climate change and
how it's going to be killing all these people. I
(28:49):
think this whole thing is ludicrous. I think that it's
you know that there's a lot of emotion there. They
want to blame humanity for this so that government can
come in and grow and acts people and take away
choices and redistribute wealth and all of that. But let's
face it, even if their predictions are true, if you
(29:10):
compare the evils of humanity to what they say the
evils of climate change are, these things are nowhere near
comparable to one another. Humanity has been its greatest enemy.
Humanity has committed unspeakable evil, and the truth is, as
fallen creatures who have turned our backs, thumbed our nose,
(29:34):
done much worse to the creator of this universe. We're
capable of bad things, and so truth matters whether we're
understanding the truth of some of the aspirational things of
humanity and some of the ideas that we have in
place here in this country, some of the blessings we
have been given here in this country, all of that,
(29:56):
but also the bad things coming to realization, coming into
alignment with the way things are, and then doing our
best to have a positive impact on society. So that
society chooses to do the things that are aligned with
the freedom, aligned with faith, aligned with integrity and morality,
(30:18):
instead of heading down this path of absolute moral depravity.
And that's where the left has taken us. And they're prepared.
Not only are they is their worldview and ideology absolutely
and utterly morally bankrupt. They're prepared to do whatever it takes.
This is the Seinfeld Newman strategy. Whatever it takes as
long as it takes them, so long as it takes
(30:39):
Trump away from sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue the White House,
but also as long as it takes anybody in their
path out of political powers so that they can achieve
more power, more control, you get less liberty, higher taxes.
That's what these folks are prepared to do. And listen
(30:59):
why people are in favor of some of these policies
that allow this example of this individual being able to
register be auto registered to vote in Maryland as someone
who should not be allowed to register to vote. Why
we are making this just ridiculously simple, so simple in fact,
(31:24):
that it becomes rife with opportunities for dramatic fraud to
take place is beyond me. And of course if you
talk about election integrity. You have one side who says
Conservatives Republicans are trying to silence certain voters, not give
them the right to vote. Yeah, I am trying to
silence certain voters, you know, the voters. I'm trying to
(31:45):
silence the voters who shouldn't be voting. Those are the
ones that I want to silence. Those ballots. We're never
going to get to zero ballots that are cast illegally,
but we want to drive it down as much as
possible to legal ballots. I did today's Todd talk on
a similar topic, something that Eric Swalwell, who's running for
(32:05):
governor of California currently a lunatic leftist congressman from the
People's Republic of California. But of course reasonable people would say,
we want voting to be as easy as possible, as
efficient as possible without becoming a burden to the people,
while ensuring that we have elections that are safe and secure,
(32:28):
that prevent as much fraud and registering of people that
shouldn't be voting, like Ian Andre Roberts apparently was in
the state of Maryland. Reasonable people understand you need a
voter identification, you need some sort of physical ID when
you cast a ballot to be able to do so.
The left fights against this stuff at each and every step.
(32:51):
They want automatic registrations, They want ballots going out in
the mail all over the place. They don't want you
to have to provide a voter ID. They don't want
to clean voter rule because, my friends, I think when
the dust settles, we will find that they have abused
this in ways that will be astonishing once we get
an idea of just the level of this particular depravity.
(33:15):
And I'm at the end of this segment, I do
want to shift in the next segment and talk about
what I mentioned here earlier, which is crime and incarceration
data that has shocked people on the left, and that
of course should not shock us, because this is in
perfect alignment with what a reasonable person would have concluded.
(33:35):
Maybe not the numbers and the percentages or the proportion
I should say of how many of just how small
the truly violent criminal aspect is here in our country,
but how much they repeatedly commit violent crimes. We'll get
to that after the break of My friends, Sit tight.
You're listening to the home of Conservative not Better Talk.
(33:56):
I am your host. The one and only Tod Huff
back here in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends,
here to the Full Sweet Wealth Studios on this very
short Thanksgiving week. In fact, tomorrow, tomorrow is I probably
(34:17):
shouldn't have my favorite episode of the year, but I do.
I do have my favorite episode of the year, and
it is tomorrow. We'll be carrying on the tradition that
was started by the late Great Rush Limbaugh telling the
true story of Thanksgiving. I love it. I love it
with I just look forward to it. I enjoyed hearing
(34:38):
it as a member of his audience all those years ago,
and I look forward to sharing it a to share
the story, but also to remember his legacy and how
much he impacted the conservative movement. So I'm looking forward
to that. I hope you will join us for that.
(34:59):
I hope you have a be Thanksgiving as well. All right,
So I want to talk here in a moment about
these crime statistics and get through these as best I can.
But folks, have you ever noticed how families, some families

we're going to talk about crime and incarceration data which
(36:04):
has shocked the radical left. So Sweden did a national
study and this stuff is all a posted on our
website if you want to dig in deep. Obviously I
can't get into it, but they studied individuals born in
Sweden between nineteen fifty eight and nineteen eighty. The total
population was roughly two point four million people, and they
(36:28):
looked at the time period of convictions dating from nineteen
seventy three until two thousand and four. So this is
a long survey looking at a generation of people who
had been convicted of crimes in Sweden. They found that
persistent violent offenders, these were individuals with three or more
(36:51):
violent crimes, constituted twenty four three hundred and forty two
people out of the two point four million people. That
means that about one percent one percent of the total
population was represented by persistent offenders. That one percent. Let
(37:11):
this sink in, that one percent accounted for sixty three
point two percent of all violent crime convictions in this
data set. Those with eleven or more violent crime convictions
represented zero point one percent of the overall population. They
(37:35):
accounted for roughly twenty percent of all violent crime convictions.
Forget about the eighty twenty rule, this is the point
one percent twenty percent rule. So you've got point one
percent of the population committing twenty percent of the of
the violent crime convictions in Sweden, which is absolutely incredible. Oakland,
(37:58):
California studies here reports analyzing the twenty nineteen Oakland crime data.
They focused on homicide offenders. They used local law enforcement
and prosecutorial data. What they found was, again, point one
percent of Oakland's population committed the majority of homicides in
(38:24):
the period referenced. So again, that's over half of the
of murders of homicides, point one percent of Oakland's population
committed the majority more than half of all homicides. Unbelievable.
This indicates that there is an extreme concentration of violence
(38:48):
within a tiny group of individuals who have become chronic offenders.
US Federal violent offender recidifism this was a US Sentencing
Commission report examined federal violent offenders released back in twenty ten.
(39:08):
Sixty three percent of released federal violent offenders were rearrested
for either a new offense or a supervision violation. That
was over an eight year periods. Over eight years. People
who were released for violent crime in twenty ten, almost
(39:29):
two thirds of them were re arrested within an eight
year period of time. I mean, I can go through
there's more data here, but the bottom line here is
this right now, one of the many, many issues vying
for our at tension in this nation is how we
deal with violent crime. You have one group of people
(39:49):
who want to excuse it. You have one group of
people who want to say that we're all collectively responsible
for the choices of everybody else, but we're not in
individually responsible for ourselves. This is the radical left. By
the way, they build policy on this, they want to
make excuses. They want to basically never hold people accountable
(40:12):
for their violent actions, or they rarely do. And then
you have another side, well, people like me, and I
think the vast majority of you, who want criminals to
face the consequences of their actions. I don't want certain
crimes that are administrative to have the book thrown at them,
(40:34):
but folks, violent offenders, violent offenders should absolutely be dealing
with serious consequences. The data now even supports that, in
addition to common sense. But I've got to go talk
to you tomorrow. SDG
