Senators voted Monday to investigate Sen. Wendy Rogers over whether she violated ethics rules by suggesting the Buffalo gunman Saturday was a federal agent. But they refused to immediately expel her.

PHOENIX — State senators voted Monday to investigate Sen. Wendy Rogers over whether she violated ethics rules by suggesting the gunman who killed 10 people in Buffalo on Saturday was a federal agent.

"In March, our state Senate voted to censure her because of hateful anti-Semitic comments,'' Steele said."Our sincere hope was that the senator from District 6 would have gotten her things together and moved forward to do better. What happened over this weekend was not doing better.'' Senate Minority Leader Rebecca Rios called Rogers' post a"racist dog whistle ... perpetuating a grotesque conspiracy theory.''

Townsend, who will be Rogers' foe in the Republican primary because of redistricting, took some verbal slaps at her. Sen. Sonny Borrelli, R-Lake Havasu City, said he has"no idea'' what Rogers' comment actually means. He said he thinks an investigation by the Ethics Committee will clear Rogers. As evidence, he read a posting that Rogers made Monday morning."I also condemn the #FakeNews and the government promoting violence and then blaming it on regular patriotic Americans as if regular Americans share those despicable views,'' it continued."Everything is not what it seems.
