Far-right Florida congressional candidate Laura Loomer spouted a conspiracy theory that the Buffalo supermarket shooting that killed ten people and wounded three others was a set up.
In a second post on Truth Social, Loomer baselessly theorized that Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was tied to the shooting.
Loomer, who lost to Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL) in 2020, is running for Congress again and has gained the support of Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Paul Gosar (R-AZ).
She has described herself as a “proud Islamophobe” and received a nod of approvalfrom former President Donald Trump during her 2020 bid. Lara Trump also campaigned with Loomer in 2020.
