Sen. Wendy Rogers suggested the shooter In Buffalo was a Federal Agent

from APEX Featuring Ian C Jordan · host APEX

The Arizona Senate will investigate a social media post from state Sen. Wendy Rogers that suggested the shooter in a mass killing in Buffalo, New York, last weekend was a federal agent and part of a federal conspiracy.The Senate voted 24-3, with three members not voting, to move forward with an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee. The committee will now examine Rogers' remarks "relating to the Buffalo shooting as inappropriate of an elected official with this body."An effort to expel Rogers, pushed by Democrats, failed on a 11-15 vote just after 4 p.m.Rogers, a Trump-endorsed, first-term politician who belongs to the Oath Keepers and has espoused conspiracy theories, was censured by her Senate peers on March 1 after she promoted hanging political enemies during an appearance at an event hosted by Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes and threatened to destroy fellow Republicans' careers.Rogers also drew condemnation at the time for antisemitic statements and behavior, including a promotional photo of her next to do a dead rhino marked with a Star of David.On Saturday, following the shooting deaths of 10 people at a Buffalo store, Rogers posted on the social media site Telegram, "Fed boy summer has started in Buffalo."Numerous political observers and journalists said that Rogers statement meant that she was calling the shooting was a "false flag" operation by federal authorities. The statement drew nearly 200 comments that were subsequently blocked from view by Telegram.
