Gov Matt Bevin on pension meltdowns, tax overhaul, SNL, and Kentucky’s “pathetic” media
Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin is not shy in his radio appearances. I've had conversations with Mr. Bevin since his 2013 senate primary challenge to incumbent Sen. Mitch McConnell. Gov. Bevin and I usually go long form on a variety of issues. This time we talked about Saturday Night Live's skewering of Kentuckians, expected tax overhaul plans, alleged political corruption by both parties, and secrecy surrounding the governor's new Anchorage home. A few members of the media took offense to a comment Bevin made about Courier-Journal Frankfort bureau chief Tom Loftus.

McConnell confirms his intention to use the nuclear option to confirm SCOTUS nominee Neil Grouch
U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell confirms that he is prepared to use the so-called nuclear option, changing traditional rules of the Senate to allow for a simple majority vote to confirm U.S. Supreme Court nominee Judge Neil Gorsuch.

Democrats point out that Reid's use of the nuclear option was to advance lower court appointments, not Supreme Court nominees. Here is the entire WHAS interview, which also covers whether superpowers should intervene following Syrian chemical attacks, if GOP in-fighting will wither 2018 election hopes, health care upgrades, tax reform, and
