Tim McGraw has some harsh words for divisive political rhetoric and the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol — and he doesn't want to waste words on former President Donald Trump at all. "I'm not going to give him any air," McGraw replied with a chuckle, when asked for his thoughts on the former president during a TIME Person of the Week podcast interview. "From my perspective and my world, that's just so far out there that I can't even put words to it," the singer continues. "I want what's best for our country. I want what's best...

Tim McGraw lightened the mood while supporting a serious cause, playing his upbeat 1999 hit "Something Like That" while dangling from his pool diving board for the iHeart Living Room Concert for America on Sunday night (March 29).

The Living Room Concert for America -- hosted by Elton...

Don’t get me wrong, amigos. The “mainstream media” does not label gun-control-loving Tim Mc Graw’s upcoming tour in the same manner as does this column. Instead we read stuff like this:  “Tim McGraw to perform in (totalitarian) Cuba-- McGraw’s 2019 Memorial Day Weekend trek, dubbed “One of Those Havana Nights.”..The McGraw trip offers lodging in ocean-view rooms at (totalitarian) Havana’s upscale Meliá Hotel, where a box of cigars and a bottle of rum will await each traveler.

Revealing: What ABC Didn’t Show You from the CMA Country Music Fest Posted By Bruce Carroll On September 2, 2010 This article is nearly three months in the making. For the second year in a row, my partner John and I attended the Country Music Association (CMA) Music Fest in Nashville, TN in early June. As a side note, if you ever get the opportunity – GO! It is a weeklong celebration of great country music and the great American city of Nashville. But this isn’t a tourist agency pimping of Music City. Nope, it is a damning indictment of...

What a great song.

All-American Michael Oher went from the streets as a 15-year-old son of a crack addict to potential NFL Rookie of the Year on the love and dedication of an adoptive family that wouldn’t let him fail.

Being a Republican country music fan, this saddens me. But it is not as tough for me as it is for Tennessee Republicans, who may have to make the difficult choice between party loyalty with Bill Frist and voting for McGraw just so his wife, Faith Hill, can be the First Lady of Tennessee. Good luck with that. More . . .

It's innate in me to be a Democrat--a true Southern populist kind of Democrat. There's not a lot of those anymore. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong. That's just the way I feel. The issues that matter to me are the social safety nets for people, health care, middle-class concerns. We need to take care of the middle class and the poor in our country. The chasm is getting larger between haves and have-nots, and that's something we need to close down a little bit.

NEW YORK — Country music might seem like a pretty conservative medium, but Tim McGraw is bucking the trend. "It's innate in me to be a Democrat — a true Southern populist kind of Democrat.
