Andy Beshear, one of the absolute worst governors in America, just got handed a major and embarrassing defeat stemming back to his illegal and immoral shutdown of churches during Covid.

Beshear abused his power by shuttering houses of worship during Covid and was sued for his trouble.

Now an appeals court has ruled that the governor is on the hook for $270,000 in attorney's fees to be paid to the plaintiffs who rightfully sued the tyrant wannabe.

Three individuals sued Beshear for violating their civil rights and preventing them from gathering for worship during the Covid shutdowns, and now they have been vindicated and the governor has been punished, at least somewhat, for his actions.

The appeals court upheld a lower circuit court ruling against the governor.

The Sixth Circuit previously barred the governor from enforcing a prohibition on in-person services, disputing the lower court's ruling which upheld the ban.

"[The] unexplained breadth of the ban on religious services, together with its haven for numerous secular exceptions, cannot co-exist with a society that places religious freedom in a place of honor in the Bill of Rights: the First Amendment," the court found in May 2020.

Now the matter is settled after years of legal battles and wasted taxpayer dollars.

Unfortunately, the taxpayers in Kentucky are the people on the hook to pay these fees. However, that doesn't negate the importance of the legal victory.

Kentucky is (supposedly) a conservative state. The taxpayers wouldn't be paying these fees if they had elected anyone other than this Democrat dictator to office (maybe they should remember that in the next election).
