Swamp Sweep Operation: Federal Agents to Deploy in Louisiana and MississippiFederal agents are gearing up for a new operation, Swamp Sweep, set to commence in early December. This initiative will focus on the southeastern parts of Louisiana and Mississippi, marking a significant expansion of federal enforcement efforts into these states. Agents will arrive in New Orleans this Friday to set up equipment and vehicles, preparing to fan out across various neighborhoods and commercial areas. The operation will cover a wide region, stretching from New Orleans through Jefferson, St. Bernard, and St. Tammany parishes, and extending north all the way to Baton Rouge. The Department of Homeland Security has not commented directly on the operation, but Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin stated that the department enforces the nations laws daily. This move comes amidst an aggressive federal immigration crackdown that has already seen federal officers deployed to cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Charlotte.
