I agree with Rusty for the specific situation.
There is also "right away" for the more general meaning of "en caliente". Immigrants are being sent back right away.

Doesn't "right away" mean "immediately"?

I equate it to ahora mismo.
It has the same meaning as immediately, but it seems nicer than immediately.
