RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A federal immigration crackdown centered around North Carolina’s largest city of Charlotte appeared to be over after less than a week as Border Patrol agents now turn their attention toward New Orleans, where the next big operation is expected.

Federal officials confirmed with Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection operation known as “ Operation Charlotte’s Web ” was officially over following hundreds of arrests, the sheriff’s office said Thursday.

No border agent operations will occur in Charlotte on Thursday, the sheriff's office said. A spokesperson for the Border Patrol agency didn’t immediately respond to an email seeking confirmation of the sheriff’s statement.

The operation that began last weekend was the most recent phase of Republican President Donald Trump’s aggressive mass deportation efforts that have sent the military and immigration agents into Democratic-run cities — from Chicago to Los Angeles.

did not expect a massive push back at all. Their intimidation tactics failed, so they turned tail and ran

And boy are going to get a surprise when they get to New Orleans. I hear the gators are hungry this time of year, and the river flows really fast. And Marie Laveau gon' put a hex on them boys.
