Donald Trump Declares California & New York Have “Gone To Hell”
Donald Trump has, for better or worse, consistently filled his Twitter timeline with unfiltered takes on American society and beyond. And with the upcoming Presidential election arriving on Tuesday, November 3rd, Trump has come out swinging in an attempt to bolster his support. Seeing as many in his base have gravitated toward his blunt and unapologetic demeanor, Trump has opted to keep the playbook unchanged, taking to Twitter to fire off a few provocative thoughts.

Despite the fact that turning the typically left-leaning California into a red state feels nigh impossible, Trump has opted to stir the pot all the same. Earlier today, the President issued a disparaging tweet, declaring that “California is going to hell.” And, in what can only be described as Mayor Quimby energy, he signed off with an emphatic “Vote Trump.” It should be noted that the President’s message followed a big win from his old rival LeBron James, who he recently deemed to be “very nasty.”
And the scorn wasn’t exclusively reserved for California — New York wasn’t spared from the Trumpian wrath. In fact, the Big Apple even got the worse of it, with Trump emphasizing that it had already “gone” to hell. And last but not least, Illinois received an ominous message, with Trump having given up on it completely. “Illinois has no place to go,” he writes. “Sad, isn’t it?”
Never one to say less, Trump’s rant continued with a few more shots across the board, including one at his favorite sparring partner — “the Lamestream Media.” “SO MUCH FAKE NEWS!” he declares, in emphatic ALL-CAPS. “The Lamestream Media has gone absolutely insane because they realize we are winning BIG in all of the polls that matter. They write or show one false story after another. They are truly sick people. VOTE!!!”

Ronan Furlong finds renewal in the sea with latest release “Splitting The Ash”
“Splitting The Ash” opens with a distinctly Celtic riff before Ronan Furlong moves into an energetic song influenced by ideas of healing, rebirth, and spiritual renewal. The title and subject of the song are based on an ancient Irish ritual in which an ash tree is split open, giving the song a strong link to tradition, while its message is firmly rooted in the present: finding strength, renewal, and inspiration when life puts barriers in your way.
The sea is central to the track’s feeling, a symbol of challenge and regeneration. Furlong links his power to the resilience that can develop from exceeding physical boundaries. The song’s backstory lends that notion further weight, penned during a swim in the Irish Sea in January. The music’s context of creation gives it a particularly direct relationship with endurance and the willingness to push beyond discomfort.
“Splitting The Ash” ultimately feels life-affirming but never loses sight of struggle. The Celtic opening of the song gives an immediate sense of place, while its focus on renewal keeps the message open and universal. Ronan Furlong uses an old image of healing to remind us that difficult experiences can also be a source of strength, inspiration, and a renewed connection to life.

Kaaine offers a two-sided story on latest release “BROKEN HEARTED REMIX”
Kaaine‘s latest release, “BROKEN HEARTED REMIX” feat Leaquita B takes you right into the tangled waters of love, betrayal, pain, and the hard road to recovery when memories won’t let go. Instead, the remix broadens the emotional horizon, bringing male and female perspectives into the record and deepening the song’s sense of vulnerability, rather than just heartbreak from one side.
The lyric, “We was glad our paths finna change, our lifestyle rearranged,” captures the weight of the song’s emotion. That line is so much about being in a relationship where change feels right, but the song’s subject matter still keeps the emotional connection alive beneath that decision. The record draws you in because it captures that tension between moving on and being haunted by the past.
But the remix is a playground for Kaaine and Leaquita B to explore the aftermath of emotional damage without losing sight of the human feelings at its root. “BROKEN HEARTED REMIX” is not about pretending the pain didn’t happen. It’s about how hard it is to let go of memories. It is a hip-hop/R&B-based song with two perspectives that turns heartbreak into a conversation about feelings we all share.
