After reviewing the record, we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing the sentence. See United States v. Valure, 835 F.3d 789, 790 (8th Cir. 2016) (reviewing revocation sentence for abuse of discretion). The court considered the relevant factors and did not give significant weight to an improper factor or commit a clear error in weighing the factors. See United States v.
