New Orleans, Louisiana, is the latest Democratic-run American city to have the Malignant Fascist and shadow President Stephen Miller's goon squad descend on their racially- profiled targets:
Federal agents descended on New Orleans on Wednesday, making Louisiana’s most populous city the latest front in the Trump administration’s sweeping crackdown on immigrant communities.
Masked
agents patrolled a heavily Latino suburb in marked and unmarked
vehicles, and a resident told the Associated Press he watched agents
arresting men outside a home improvement store in New Orleans – a familiar scene that has played out in several major cities in recent months.
Gregory
Bovino, the border patrol chief and frequent Fox News guest who has
become the face of the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts, was filmed
leading a group of masked agents through the historic French quarter.
One woman heckled the agents as they marched along Poydras Street, shouting “we hate you” from her car, and “fucking losers”.
Tricia McLaughlin, homeland security department assistant secretary,
said in a statement that the aim of “Operation Catahoula Crunch” was to
capture immigrants who were released after their arrests for crimes
including home invasion, armed robbery, grand theft auto and rape. “It
is asinine that these monsters were released back onto New Orleans
streets to COMMIT MORE CRIMES and create more victims,” she said.
It is unclear how long the crackdown would last – one report suggested
it could continue into January – but roughly 250 agents are reportedly
targeting 5,000 arrests. The Democrat-led city has been bracing for
weeks for the arrival of federal agents, with rumors swirling of a
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) crackdown led by border patrol
initially referred to as “Swamp Sweep”.
Border
patrol agents began making arrests on Wednesday, including in the
parking lots of Lowe’s hardware stores on Elysian Fields and in
Metairie, as well as at Home Depot locations in LaPlace, about 30
minutes outside of New Orleans, and Gretna... (our emphasis)
That sure sounds like they're surgically targeting "monsters," i.e., carpenters, landscapers, plumbers, electricians, drywallers, etc. Does anyone outside the MAGA bubble still believe they're just out to get people who've committed crimes?
Contrary to other ICE goon sweeps, this time they're targeting a State with a MAGA governor, Jeff Landry, whose nose is way up the MF's ample ass. He's conveniently ignoring clear evidence that what's going on is the "mass deportation" the MAGAts were promised by the MF during the 2024 campaign:
Despite the Trump administration’s repeated
insistence that it was pursuing “the worst of the worst” among people
lacking legal status in these crackdowns, most of the people detained in
those past operations have not had criminal histories. In “Operation
Charlotte’s Web” in Charlotte, North Carolina, fewer than 12% of those arrested were classified as criminals. In Chicago, more than 97% of immigrants detained in “Midway Blitz” had no criminal conviction.
The Guardian has also previously reported that immigrants with no criminal record are now the largest group
in US immigration detention, according to government data. Research has
also consistently shown that immigrants – including undocumented
immigrants – are less likely to commit crimes than people born in the United States.
And
despite violent crime in New Orleans, including homicide, plummeting to
record lows, Louisiana’s Republican governor, Jeff Landry – a staunch
Trump ally – has welcomed the deployment of federal law enforcement in
the city “with open arms”. “This is going to run until we get them all
off the street,” he said today, referring to people with criminal
records... (our emphasis)

If they're looking for the worst of the worst, they should go after the ICE goons, the governor's mansion in Baton Rouge, and above all, the crime organization that's taken over Washington, DC. Looks like that'll be up to us in 2026 and 2028.
