Well ICE is not the only people capable of arresting lawbreakers. Red States should be already allowing and empowering their own officers to have begun doing so and then sending the half done job to them to finish.
Which I've seen dozens of clips out of Louisiana just this weekend of that literally happening, with local PD providing escorts and cover for ICE operations. So clearly what you want is already in progress, and its just not dramatic enough to reach headlines you see.
Also, like I said initially. The Somali situation barely reached anyone's radar a month ago, and its an entirely different beast that becomes more massive by the day in terms of entrenchment and corruption covering for it. It does need a different strategy, and I'm hopeful they have one.
The one I saw was in Kenner, which is a whole parish over from New Orleans.
It might be a lead in to tackling New Orleans itself soon, but honestly that would be a very bad idea with Mardi Gras season coming soon. They'd be better off heading up to the Shreveport area until March. But that's just my personal opinion off what I know.
Looks like Kenner's mayor is a former police chief. It makes sense they'd be cooperative. "Low hanging fruit" like that is what they should focus on. There should be plenty of cooperative locations they can clean out.
I don't disagree with your idea, its effective if your plan is raw numbers directly deported. I'd be willing to bet that is happening more than we'd think, but its not being reported on much. Whether due to lack of protestors to make it a "story" or because the big hype generating raids are being done to absorb all the heat (and generate the aforementioned fear).

Aren't they specifically going into New Orleans?
