White nationalist Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers posted a disgusting message on Telegram accusing the Buffalo mass shooter of being a secret government agent and carrying out the attack as part of a false flag mission. The conspiracy theory was also boosted by fellow white nationalist Nick Fuentes and closely echoes Alex Jones’ conspiracy theory about the Sandy Hook mass shooting. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

"Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers (R) is no stranger to offensive, unhinged comments but an utterly bonkers Telegram post she made on Saturday about the shooting at a Buffalo grocery store truly stands out in the parade of inanities and insanities she’s spouted over the years.
Saturday afternoon, 18-year-old Payton Gendron allegedly opened fire in a grocery store, killing 10 and wounding 3 others. Local news reported that the gunman live-streamed the attack on the Twitch gaming platform. Eleven of the 13 victims who were shot were Black, and the gunman had posted a long manifesto containing racist and anti-Semitic views. Gendron eventually surrendered to police and was taken into custody.
NBC News reported on Sunday that Gendron was investigated by New York State Police last June for making a violent threat, and was taken to an area hospital for a mental health evaluation before being released.
It’s a terrible but sadly all-too-familiar tale of an angry young man whose hate allegedly festered online before devolving into deadly violence.
But for Rogers, it’s an opportunity to spread the kind of fetid nonsense that indicates she should switch out her red MAGA hat for one constructed of tin foil."
