    I thought: Certainly referring to terrorists, not immigrants in general?

    It seems that the original post has been deleted for violating the TOS of X (quite an achievement!). Screenshots of it show “This is cheaper than deportation”, which I can’t verify, since it’s not on archive.org. If true, this post would be correct.

    She reposted later with the text: “This is cheaper than deportation. Public executions for rapists and murderers.” and a slightly different picture from the same set.

    Which is not true; death penalty is really expensive. Could only make it cheaper than deportation without due process, possibly implying that intentionally.

      They’ve been calling everyone they deport “rapists and murderers” for quite some time now. They’ve never made a distinction, there’s no reason to think they’d start now.
