DHS: NC IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN NOT OVER — BORDER PATROL ARRESTS 370 IN CHARLOTTE, EXPANDS TO RALEIGH; NEW ORLEANS ‘SWAMP SWEEP’ NEXT

DHS says the North Carolina immigration enforcement operation is ongoing after reports it had ended. Border Patrol’s Charlotte-focused sweep resulted in about 370 arrests over five days and extended into the Raleigh area, prompting protests and community disruptions. Federal officials released few details about detainees and signaled a forthcoming operation in New Orleans dubbed “Swamp Sweep.” The effort aligns with a broader national surge in interior immigration enforcement.
