Summary

Texas Republican Valentina Gomez sparked outrage after releasing a video proposing public executions of undocumented immigrants who commit violent crimes, claiming it would act as a deterrent.

The video, shared on X, simulated Gomez shooting a hooded dummy representing an undocumented migrant.

Her comments followed the arrest of a Guatemalan immigrant for a subway murder in New York.

Known for far-right provocations, Gomez’s remarks drew sharp criticism from political figures and activists, with some praising her stance while others condemned it as hateful and extreme.

      Yes and no. The monsters are using migrants as a scapegoat to distract from the outright theft that’s about to ramp up.

      But the thing about a scapegoat, they’re still killed.

      When a monster tells you what they want to do, believe them.
