FRANKFORT, Ky. (LEX 18) — Gov. Matt Bevin is making headlines after posting a video showing himself throwing smoke bombs and shooting grenade launchers.
In the video, posted Sunday afternoon, Bevin says when he was elected, he talked about blowing things up like red tape and corruption.
From the beginning, we've made it clear…We won't stand for the way things have "always been done."
There is no room in Kentucky for corruption, overburdensome red tape, pay-to-play politics and inside deals. #WeAreKY pic.twitter.com/p5Mpf8Nxc5

A spokesperson for Attorney General Andy Beshear says Bevin should refund every tax dollar used to make the video.
