Governor running for re-election literally blows up red tape (VIDEOS)

By Chris Eger

Kentucky’s Republican Gov. Matt Bevin took advantage of a stop at the State Penitentiary’s gun range to get in some time with some police-issue explosive devices.
Saying, “There is no room in Kentucky for corruption, overburdensome red tape, pay-to-play politics and inside deals,” Bevin pulled the ring on a smoke grenade which blows up in a comic cloud vector labeled “red tape.” The follow-up bloop from what looks like a DefTech gas launcher is labeled “corruption.” Other pyrotechnics are labeled “pay-to-play,” “inside deals,” and “#WeAreKy.”

From the beginning, we’ve made it clear…We won’t stand for the way things have “always been done.”

The video, filmed at Eddyville’s Kentucky State Penitentiary’s range along with members of his cabinet, was criticized by his only declared opponent in 2019, Kentucky Attorney General Andy Beshear, a Democrat who said through a spokesman that the governor should “refund every tax dollar used to make this video.”
