New Orleans…
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has begun an immigration effort in New Orleans, the department said in a Wednesday press release.
DHS said the New Orleans-based “Operation Catahoula Crunch” will aim for “criminal illegal aliens roaming free thanks to sanctuary policies.”
“Sanctuary policies endanger American communities by releasing illegal criminal aliens and forcing DHS law enforcement to risk their lives to remove criminal illegal aliens that should have never been put back on the streets,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in the release.
The operation’s name references the state dog of Louisiana, the Catahoula Leopard Dog.
It comes amid a larger crackdown on immigration by the Trump administration that has upset many on the political left throughout President Trump’s year back in office.
Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Charlotte, N.C., have been targeted since summertime….

Minneapolis and Saint Paul….
Border czar Tom Homan said on Tuesday that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations are ramping up in Minneapolis and Saint Paul because of “criminal activity” in the area.
“We’ve done operations in Twin Cities, but you know what? The uncoverings of criminal activity … just elevated their priority status,” Homan said in an interview on Fox News’s “The Ingraham Angle.”

The interview comes amid reports that the Trump administration is planning a targeted immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota in the coming days that would focus primarily on the Somali community living unlawfully in the country.
President Trump has recently escalated his attacks on the Somali community, including by targeting Rep. Ilhan Omar (D), the Minnesota congresswoman who fled the civil war in Somalia when she was eight years old and became a U.S. citizen 25 years ago.
The focus on the Somali diaspora living in Minnesota comes as a conservative news outlet resurfaced claims that taxpayer dollars from defrauded government programs have flowed to al-Shabab, an affiliate of al Qaeda. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent responded to the report on Monday saying his agency is investigations the allegations….

Some Minnesota officials have expressed concern about the narrow targeting of the Somali community. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) on Tuesday criticized the Trump administration’s actions but said anyone committing fraud should go to prison, The Associated Press reported.
“Sitting on the sidelines and throwing out accusations — and let’s be very clear, demonizing an entire population and lying to people about the safety and security of this state — is beneath that,” Walz said, according to the AP.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) on Sunday criticized President Trump for focusing on the Somali community in the aftermath of the shooting of the National Guards members. The suspect in question is an Afghan national who was granted asylum earlier this year after he entered the US in 2021 as part of a Biden-era program to help resettle individuals who helped the U.S. in its two-decades war in Afghanistan.
“He took that case, and then he went 2,400 miles away to Somalia and somehow indicted an entire group of people, 80,000 of them in my state, as well as later all naturalized citizens, 24 million people in the United States of America,” Klobuchar said.
“This is what he does”…..
