That's only thing that saved the KY from that fool. And thats only because, like every other Conservative, teachers did not care what the stupid policies were until it affected them. When it was their pension on the line, they showed up in droves and kept him out.

And the coal miners. So basically pissed of central, western, and northern Kentucky with the cuts to teachers, then eastern Kentucky in the Appalachians with the cuts to coal miners.
It was the absolute dumbest shit I’ve seen in 40 years of living in Kentucky.

Matt Bevin who pardoned actual violent criminals before his term expired as revenge for not getting reelected. That Matt Bevin?

>LOUISVILLE — A judge sentenced former Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin to 60 days in jail after finding him in contempt of court for failing to disclose his financial details in a year-long legal battle with his estranged son, Jonah Bevin.
>It is an extraordinary development for the one-term Republican governor who the judge said has resisted repeated orders to disclose personal financial details as his adopted son, now 19, seeks support in Jefferson Family Court after alleging that his parents abandoned him.
Just in case the headline didn't make him sound like a big enough piece of shit, he's worse than you thought. And just in case THAT bit didn't make him sound like a big enough piece of shit, here's this one:
>Bevin told the judge he had to travel out of state to attend the funeral Monday of the father of his ex-wife, Glenna Bevin, and was on his way back to Kentucky. He did not disclose his location. \[...\] It’s not clear when the arrest warrant would be served or when Bevin plans to return to Kentucky. He did not state where he was during Tuesday’s hearing.
Literally left the state to avoid paying child support for a kid he abandoned.

You're only scratching the surface of this story.
When Jonah got back from the abusive school in Jamaica, Bevin and his then-wife told him that they had found his mother in Ethopia, she was alive, and he had bought a plane ticket so he can reunite with her. He had to get on the plane right away along with their "facilitator." He gave no other information, including where his family was located or where he was going.
He filed a restraining order against the parents, and a judge ordered them to disclose the information they had on his biological parents. But they couldn't produce anything, the "facilitator" had no information, nor did a guide in Ethopia. They were literally going to just dump him there and hope he wouldn't be able to get back to the US.

Sure he did all of that, but you have to give him credit for one thing - he's absolutely nailing being the living embodiment of a republican politician.
Flawless execution of violently abusing children, failing to disclose financial information to the courts, violently abusing children, refusing court orders, violently abusing children, accusing the judge of being biased, violently abusing children, thinking himself above the law, and violently abusing children, he's the absolute golden paragon of republican ethical standards.

You missed a big one: deporting (or attempting to deport) someone to a foreign country just to be done with them.

Im so glad others know his true story. When I first watched that documentary, After it ended, I emailed Beshear wanting to know why tf this vile human was allowed to roam free.
I never heard back. That could be bc there was an active investigation at the time.
UN-F******-FATHOMABLE!!!!! To be such a vile piece of shit. A morally malignant cancer on everyone!
And while I'm at it. Let's give Paris Hilton her flowers for helping those children!

Adopted at age 5 with 3 other kids, physically and verbally abused by these fake Christians for more than a decade, sent to a Jamaican troubled teens camp at 17. Then the Jamaican camp was shut down by authorities for beating and starving these kids, and his parents refused to come pick him up. I'm glad his child advocate attorney is looking out for him so fiercely because this poor kid has been through it.

Same party that runs health insurance companies that won't pay for treatment for a newborn if they don't consider it 'a viable human being.'

You can tell he's Republican because it wasn't in the headline. The media only does that when a Dem is in trouble.

Seemed interesting a kid suing for child support. But they dumped him in some sketchy mental health facility
