Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell derided Republican Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin for several controversial pardons and commutations during his final days in office. Bevin, 52, lost his reelection bid to Democrat Andy Beshear last month.
"Honestly, I don't approve. It seems to me it was completely inappropriate. I respect he had the power to do it, but looking at the examples of people who were incarcerated as a result of heinous crimes, no, I don't approve of it," McConnell said while addressing reporters on Friday.
