Betsy Smittle, by the way, played in bands for Garth, Ronnie Dunn and Gus Hardin. With her own band, she played the OKC Pride Parade and Festival in 2006.

Garth talking about his sister Betsy Smittle in a 1993 interview:

"Where the gay issue has hit me the most is my sister. I've lived with that forever. And the thing is, the longer you live with it, the more you realize that it's just another form of people loving one another."

Garth, a whole 31 years ago:

Those surprised by Garth Brooks being an ally of the LGBTQ+ community are the same people who are surprised by Rage Against the Machine's political views.

Y'all don't listen to their songs?

In the end, the people of Tennessee made the ultimate choice of courage and hope. Thank you to the thousands who came to the people’s house today to show the nation that we will not yield to authoritarian attacks on our democracy. Our fight is not over. #notonestepback ✊🏾

Justice.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Three kids and three officials gunned down in yet another mass shooting.

And what are GOP officials focused on?

Punishing lawmakers who joined thousands of peaceful protesters calling for action.

It's shocking, undemocratic, and without precedent.

What happened in Tennessee is the latest example of a broader erosion of civility and democratic norms. Silencing those who disagree with us is a sign of weakness, not strength, and it won’t lead to progress.

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

WATCH: “This is not a democracy. It’s a very sad day for Tennessee.”

@RepRagan refuses to recognize @VoteGloriaJ & @brotherjones_ after Speaker @CSexton25 removed them from committees for their role in the peaceful protest last week.

Troopers then remove constituents.

REPORTER: “Why were you not expelled but @brotherjones_ was?“

@VoteGloriaJ: "I'll answer your question — it might have to do with the color of our skin."

Meet Idaho Gov. Brad Little.

Yesterday, he signed a law making “abortion trafficking” of a minor a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison.

What the is abortion trafficking, you might be wondering?

Imagine a brother takes his 17 year old sister out of state to get an abortion and they don’t tell their parents.

Imagine a 17 year old lives in an abusive home and asks the parents of their best friend to help them get an abortion without telling their folks.

Both of these “crimes” could lead to five years in prison.

Brad, and the men behind this bill, are assholes seeking to control people’s lives and bodies. Don’t be like Brad.

Abortion isn’t a crime. It’s health care.

Maybe cable news channels can take a tiny break from covering what Trump had for lunch to show the massive crowds of young people flooding into Nashville to demand Republicans pass gun reform. https://t.co/Mo9CwT3oAr

This is just incredible.

Adam Wainwright surprised everyone today when he hopped out of line and sang the Opening Day National Anthem for the Cardinals.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans will force a 10 year old to carry her rapist’s baby to term, let a 6 year old carry a gun, permit a 12 year old to work an 8 hour shift in a meat packing plant and allow a grown man to marry a 14 year old with a Judge’s consent, all while telling us that the reason they’re banning drag queens, gender affirming care and books about Rosa Parks is because they want to ‘protect our kids.’

Bullshit.

[Mike Trout @MikeTrout]

It’s hard to sum up into words what these last couple of weeks have meant to me. I had the time of my life representing that USA on my chest! The energy was electric and made the WBC a moment I’ll always cherish. So thank you all so much. It was an honor to be your captain. 🫡🇺🇸

Love this interaction between Adam Wainwright and Pete Alonso.
