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.
