Trump lands in New Mexico claiming he won the state twice

By Lily Alexander, Nate Bernard & Addison Fulton

@llilyalexander, @natebernard14 & @dailylobo

Former President Donald Trump held a rally in Albuquerque on Thursday, Oct. 31, during which he claimed he has won New Mexico in two elections and will win again. He shared the stage with United States Senate candidate Nella Domenici (R) and New Mexico 2nd Congressional District candidate Yvette Herrell (R).

The rally took place at CSI Aviation near the Albuquerque International Sunport. Event organizers initially faced complications with parking but announced a new plan the day before the rally, according to the Santa Fe New Mexican.

At the rally, Trump focused on immigration and border security, particularly in New Mexico. He described immigrants who lack permanent legal status as “killers,” “drug addicts,” “drug dealers” and “gang members,” reiterating his recent call for the death penalty for migrants who kill United States citizens.

“One of the biggest reasons we will win this state is that you have among the worst border problems of any state in America, and I am the only one that knows how to fix it,” Trump said. “I already did fix it. Four years ago, you didn’t have a problem.”

Immigrants lacking permanent legal status are arrested for committing crimes — including violent crimes — at a lower rate than U.S.-born citizens, according to the National Institute of Justice.

Trump also claimed to have won New Mexico in the past two elections.

“We almost won it twice. Let me tell you: I believe we won it twice,” Trump said.

After the rally, Steve Pearce, chairman of the Republican Party of New Mexico, told the Daily Lobo that Trump did not win nor claim to have won the state twice.

“He said that he came close twice. He didn’t say he won twice,”’ Pearce said. “I was listening, plus I was working with him.”

Trump lost New Mexico in 2020 by about 100,000 votes and in 2016 by about 65,000

Protesters march against Trump’s Albuquerque visit

@lchapa06 & @paloma_chapa88

On Thursday, Oct. 31, protesters marched at CSI Aviation in Albuquerque, where former President Donald Trump was making a campaign stop.

The protest was organized by the Albuquerque Party for Socialism and Liberation in rejection of Trump’s visit to New Mexico. It focused on criticizing Trump’s stance on immigration, uplifting the working class and ending the war in Gaza.

The group of about 40 protesters marched down Clark Carr Road toward where Trump was speaking, until a line of Albuquerque Police Department officers blocked off the road. Protesters chanted and rallied there before marching back.

When the protest concluded, Trump rally attendees clashed with protesters as attendees left early because the venue was filled to capacity and the doors had closed.

Several Trump rally attendees approached the group of protesters at a traffic island at the intersection of Clark Carr Road and Spirit Drive, quickly outnumbering protesters.

Some Trump rally attendees made obscene gestures; others repeatedly chanted “up, up with deportation,” “Donald Trump,” “USA” and “cowards.”

Protesters chanted, “no more bans, no more walls” and “money for jobs and education, not for war and deportation.”

The situation deescalated when protesters left the island and crossed Spirit Drive. They chanted, “land of the peace, land of the light, Palestine deserves its right.”

University of New Mexico alum Zoey Craft was among those who showed up to protest.

“It was really important that the community came out today to take a stand against fascism, against Donald Trump and everything he stands for,” Craft said.

In an interview with The New York Times, Trump’s former Chief of Staff John Kelly said Trump is a far-right authoritarian and “falls into the general definition of fascist, for sure.”

Marisa Sedillo, a UNM student and member of the Albuquerque PSL, spoke during the protest.

“Every worker here today has the same interest, and we’re all on the same side,” Sedillo said. “We’re not here to antagonize anyone. All workers need to band together to fight for justice.”

Protester Raife Caspian Juárez said he is concerned about the way Trump talks about immigration.

In the Sept. 10 televised presidential debate between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump made a false statement about Haitian immigrants in Ohio abducting and

OPINION: Zeitgeist of 2024: A

By Addison Fulton @dailylobo

It was just Halloween. The election is this week. It’s a pretty scary time to be alive. In the spirit, let’s talk about horror films.

Fear and politics have always been deeply intertwined, making the horror film a deeply political art form — though it is often written off as nothing more than cheap scares.

Over the course of the year, I’ve noticed a few trends emerge: reboots and sequels, demon horror and body horror.

Two films this year really stood out: “Longlegs” and “The Substance.”

“Longlegs” follows FBI agent Lee Harker as she attempts to solve a string of murder-suicides all committed by fathers who are influenced by a Satanic entity known as Longlegs. The murders all occurred in the six

days before or after the ninth birthday of a family’s daughter.

The film’s cinematography has a moody, sickly, yellowed tone with muted colors and dark shadows, creating a menacing and confusing ambience apt for the genre.

“The Substance” follows Elisabeth Sparkle, a former Hollywood darlingturned washed-up Jazzercise instructor. Elisabeth is eventually fired from her Jazzercise show and on her drive home, she gets into a car crash.

At the hospital, a nurse slips her a “prescription,” and advises Elisabeth to try a mysterious treatment called “The Substance,” which harvests an individual’s DNA to create a “better, younger, more perfect version” of themself.

Elisabeth takes it, creating a new body and “self” named Sue. But there’s a catch: A user must spend seven days in the old body, then seven days in the new one, which can

only be maintained via lumbar fluid from the old body.

Eventually, Sue takes too much fluid, using Elisabeth’s body to preserve her own — to both of their detriments.

The film is almost dizzyingly bright and colorful, from the hot pink Jazzercise set to the stark, clean bathroom the unused body is kept in.

It doesn’t look like horror, but it feels like it.

I expected to see a lot more disease or zombie horror coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. Films take a long time to produce, create, edit and market, especially taking into account the Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild of America strikes.

Even if a film was written and created after 2022, things like rampant, widespread disease tend to stick in the culture consciousness. Fears stick with us.

Unless, of course, something comes

around that scares us even more.

Though on the surface, it’s been a diverse year for horror in terms of aesthetic and subject matter, I cannot help but notice an emerging theme of loss of control. Now, there is a pervasive fear of something taking over your body and life — be it demons, aliens or a drug-induced replica.

Another emerging theme is deception and betrayal by theoretically “trustworthy” individuals, such as wellloved TV hosts (“Late Night with the Devil”), parents (“Longlegs”) or medical professionals (“The Substance”).

The big fear is not on the minds and screens of American audiences, nor is it on any one creature or killer. It’s a loss of freedom and control — an utter dehumanization as something bigger and more powerful than you strips you of your liberties, free will, power and eventually your life.

I wonder why that’s on so many

people’s minds right now.

It’s not just that politics influences horror movies; it’s that politics and horror are influenced by the same thing: fear.

Politics lately have been a fraught landscape with very high stakes, especially when it comes to overreach of control, breach of trust, and bodily autonomy.

But what we’re scared of in films, we may take arms up against in life. As much as horror is influenced by politics, politics can be influenced by horror.

It’s been a rough year for the United States but a great year for horror. Only time will tell what lurks in the dark and in the future.

Guild Cinema November preview

By Elijah Ritch @dailylobo

Albuquerque’s Guild Cinema, located in Nob Hill within walking distance of the University of New Mexico, is unlike any other place in the city. While the Guild shows some mainstream current films and old favorites, it also consistently screens indie films, local productions, works by UNM alums, and older films that otherwise wouldn’t see a rerelease in Albuquerque. Here are some highlights from its November schedule.

As a part of the Guild’s regular Arthouse Classics series, where it shows beloved art films from across the globe, it is paying tribute to Gena Rowlands by screening two of the many films she starred in. Rowlands was one of American cinema’s greatest actresses who passed away earlier this year. Both films screened at the Guild were directed by her husband, John Cassavetes.

“A Woman Under the Influence,” a domestic drama from 1974 that’s widely considered the pinnacle of the couple’s cinematic collaboration, showed on Nov. 2 and 3. The Guild’s website describes the film as “perhaps the most important examination of mental health ever captured on screen.”

“Minnie and Moskowitz” is a more lighthearted film from 1971, allowing Rowlands to display her equally strong comedic chops. It will screen on Nov. 16 and 17 at 1 p.m.

On Nov. 2, The Silent Light performed a live heavy metal score accompanying F.W. Murnau’s seminal 1926 silent horror film “Faust,” an adaptation of the German folktale of a man who makes a deal with the devil. According to The Silent Light’s website, they breathe “new life into classic silent films through the power of live heavy metal.”

This harkens back to how silent films used to be shown — with accompaniment from an orchestra — while offering a unique spin on the experience that enhances the eerie

atmosphere of Murnau’s classic.

A new restoration of 2006 film “The Fall” by Tarsem Singh — or just Tarsem — can be seen on Nov. 8 and 9 at 10:30 p.m.

An audacious, vibrant fantasy epic that was filmed across 24 countries, “The Fall” was met with mixed reviews upon its original release, with critics accusing Tarsem of self-indulgence and emphasizing style over substance. Now, 18 years later, the director’s cut of “The Fall” is being rereleased across the world, presented by filmmakers David Fincher and Spike Jonze. This may allow Tarsem’s film to move beyond its cult following and find a wider audience.

“Mad About the Boy: The Noël Coward Story” is a 2023 documentary detailing the life and career of the titular artist. One of the 20th century’s most acclaimed playwrights, Coward’s wittily dramatic work was informed by his closeted homosexuality. Featuring archival interviews with acting legends such as Laurence Olivier and Lucille Ball, this

film is sure to provide an in-depth look at Coward’s artistic output and personal life.

“Mad About the Boy” can be seen Nov. 26-28 at 8 p.m. David Lean’s 1945 film “Brief Encounter,” which is adapted from Coward’s play “Still Life,” will be presented alongside the documentary. One of the greatest romances in cinema history, “Brief Encounter” tells the story of a man and a woman, both already married, who meet at a train station and embark on a passionate yet ephemeral love affair.

The couple’s clandestine relationship can be read as an allegory for Coward’s experiences as a gay man in the early 20th century. Equal parts swoon-inducing love story and tragedy of domestic repression, “Brief Encounter” is the rare film that sticks with you long after the credits roll. It will be screened both before and after “Mad About the Boy” from Nov. 26-28.

From Nov. 29-Dec. 2 at 5 p.m., Sean Baker’s “Anora” will make its Guild premiere. Baker has emerged

over the past decade as one of American independent cinema’s most unique voices, turning out dynamic films such as “Tangerine,” “The Florida Project” and “Red Rocket,” which all focus on the stories of sex workers.

In May, Baker’s newest film, “Anora,” won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival — the festival’s top award — and it has been the toast of the festival circuit for the past several months. A screwball, rags-to-riches story of a sex worker who marries a Russian billionaire and has to face the wrath of his family, “Anora” has continued to garner acclaim as it begins its American release, with critics hailing it as Baker’s masterpiece. The film, particularly Mikey Madison’s titular performance, is on track to become a major contender at the upcoming Academy Awards in March.

UNM researchers make discovery about human sleep using fly brains

By Arly Garcia @dailylobo

In October, a research team led by University of New Mexico professor Mubarak Hussain Syed uncovered a link between neural stem cell development and adult sleep behaviors. Using research from fly brains, researchers found evidence to support the idea that sleep problems in humans are rooted in adolescent development.

“We wanted to know what makes sleep neurons ‘sleep-promoting neurons,’” Syed said.

Stem cells are unique because they can self-replicate and differ-

entiate into different types of cells. Neural stem cells are crucial to understanding the neural circuits of the brain, according to the UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center.

“They make different connections, and they end up in different circuits, which make us do different things,” Syed said.

The team’s research on fruit flies allowed it to link sleep neurons to the flies’ ecdysone receptors, which play a role in regulating a fly’s developmental transitions.

Matthew Kayser, an psychiatry professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and a corresponding author on the research, said the findings support the

idea that sleep problems in childhood or adulthood could be partly dependent on development.

Although it may be difficult to see the link between humans and flies, fruit flies have been used for biomedical research for over 100 years.

This is partially because it is easy to raise multiple generations in the lab. Fruit flies are fully developed at 10-14 days old, and each female can lay hundreds of eggs in its lifetime, according to Columbia University Kalderon Labs.

The widespread use of fruit flies in research is also partially due to their genetic similarities to humans. About 60% of fruit flies’ genes can be found in humans in a similar form, accord-

ing to Max-Planck-Gesellschaft.

Fruit flies also express complex behaviors.

“Flies sleep. Flies fight,” Syed said. “Flies groom like we clean ourselves.”

Recently, researchers at Princeton University completed the first-ever complete neural-connections map of a fruit fly’s brain. This could help scientists around the world better understand how the brain functions, according to Princeton University.

“‘How does development shape brain function?’ is kind of an open question in the field,” Syed said.

“That’s what I decided to work on, because in the past, people have worked on the development of stem cells or people have worked on be-

haviors. So it is hard to link the two with one speciality.”

By improving their understanding of fruit flies, researchers have the opportunity to improve their understanding of humans, according to Syed.

“Perhaps our study can help them understand why sleep defects are there in patients with neural developmental disorders,” Syed said.

Duck Pond to see renovations; fish, turtles and ducks to be relocated

By Shin Thant Hlaing @dailylobo

The University of New Mexico Duck Pond is scheduled to undergo a renovation that will begin in mid-November and improve aging infrastructure, water quality, safety, accessibility and maintenance demands.

The revitalization project will not change the shape or character of the Duck Pond, according to UNM Facilities Design and Construction.

The renovation is expected to improve the circulation of oxygen using a new fountain, according to a statement by UNM Institutional Support Services to the Daily Lobo. The pond will be made deeper to reduce sunlight penetration, water temperature and algal growth.

A new gutter and drain system will be installed to capture runoff and prevent contaminants from entering the pond, according to the statement. New marsh plants will also be planted.

The aquatic animals will be relocated to a pond in the UNM Championship Golf Course, according to the statement.

Museum of Southwestern Biology Director Christopher Witt said he hopes the revitalized Duck Pond will have an intact food system that supports fish and turtles. These animals add to the character of the pond, Witt said.

“There have been plans swirling to rebuild the Duck Pond for some time, and I’m glad that there’s a plan finally going forward,” Witt said.

Biology classes have taken advantage of the Duck Pond’s ecosystem to

look at the health of freshwater aquatic urban systems, according to Witt.

The Duck Pond also serves as a habitat for migrating birds, including the Green-winged Teal, Wilson’s Phalarope and Spotted Sandpiper, Witt said.

There have been about 121 species of birds spotted at UNM this year, according to eBird.

“We have to hope that in the renovation, which targets water quality to some extent, that they don’t lose that quality that allows it to be a good habitat for wildlife,” Witt said. “That really adds to the richness and quality of this campus feature.”

Unfortunately, there are no moral victories in football; you either win or you lose. Despite the great display of offense, the defense could not do its job. The Lobos ended up losing 49-45.

The Lobos came out aggressive in the first quarter with a fast-paced offense. On the Lobos’ first drive, they advanced all the way down the field, finding the end zone in only two minutes and 27 seconds. They went for two but failed.

Wyoming immediately answered back on its first drive, taking a 7-6 lead. That lead didn’t last long, as the Lobos struck right back thanks to a 34-yard touchdown run by Sanders.

The Lobos’ defense could not stop the Cowboys on their next drive, as Wyoming found the end zone again.

The red-hot Lobo offense took the field and came to a standstill as it was forced to punt.

By Rodney Prunty

The Lobos’ offense seemed to get back to form against the University of Wyoming Cowboys on Saturday, Nov. 2. There was a standout performance on the offensive side of the ball from running back Eli Sanders, who accumulated 205 yards rushing and two touchdowns while averaging 12 yards per carry.

Special team issues have been a recurring problem for the Lobos in the past few weeks, and they continued in this game as a terrible punt gave Wyoming great field position. That wrapped up the first as the Lobos trailed 14-13.

Wyoming came out and scored a touchdown on the first play of the second quarter to extend its lead to 8. When the Lobos’ offense took the field again, it was able to move the chains and get down the field. It capped off the drive with an 18-yard touchdown run by Devon Dampier.

The Lobos tried their hand at another 2-point conversion,

which they succeeded on, tying up the game. Wyoming made sure the game wasn’t tied for long, as quarterback Kaden Anderson connected on a 68-yard-deep ball to Jaylen Sargent for a score.

After back-to-back punts by both teams, the Lobos responded accordingly, tying the game up again as Dampier ran the ball in from 40 yards out. Each team scored a touchdown in the final two minutes of the second quarter, keeping the game tied at 35 going into halftime.

In the third quarter, the Lobos’ defense held Wyoming’s offense scoreless. The Lobos’ offense seized the opportunity that its defense provided and scored 10 points in the quarter to take a solid lead into the fourth.

Up 45-35 with one more quarter to go, things were looking good for the Lobos. The Lobos’ defense got yet another stop, which resulted in Wyoming sending out its kicking unit. Wyoming missed the kick and the Lobos took over possession in decent field position.

It looked like the Lobos were going to run away with the game. Instead, on the very next play, Dampier threw a pick six, which kept the game within 3 points for Wyoming.

That pick took the life out of the Lobos as the offense couldn’t get anything going and the defense crumbled under pressure. After another Wyoming score, the see Football page 10

Five cases identified in Bernalillo County

By Rodney Prunty

As of Wednesday, Oct. 30, 90 people across 13 states, including New Mexico, have gotten sick with E. coli after eating food containing onions from McDonald’s, according to The Associated Press.

The New Mexico Department of Health released a public health alert declaring the intent to investigate the situation after identifying five cases, including one hospitalization, in Bernalillo County.

There are no current additional suspected cases in the state, New Mexico Department of Health Public Information Officer David Morgan wrote in an email to the Daily Lobo.

“There is a possibility more cases may emerge, but chances are low,” Morgan wrote.

Nationally, at least 27 people have been hospitalized, with one death tied to the outbreak, according to PBS.

Onions on McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburgers are likely the source of the outbreak. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the onions have been recalled from restaurants.

E. coli can spread rapidly in agricultural settings, according to Michelle Bardack, a primary care physician at UNM Student Health and Counseling.

“Some strains cause foodborne illnesses,” Bardack wrote in a statement to the Daily Lobo. “There can be serious complications such as kidney failure.”

UNM freshman Brandon Paiz said he finds the outbreak concerning.

“It’s crazy what’s going on. Every time I go to McDonald’s, I usually

get the quarter pounder,” Paiz said.

On Oct. 30, McDonald’s Corporate wrote in a statement that there have been no reported illnesses since it took action to remove slivered onions.

Onions from an E. coli-contaminated facility were distributed to approximately 900 McDonald’s restaurants, according to the statement.

UNM student Lauren To said the growing concern about E. coli may lead to students no longer going to McDonald’s.

“I eat out at McDonald’s about once a month, but now I just won’t go there anymore,” To said.

In August, the Daily Lobo partnered with other newsrooms throughout the state to create a survey that asked readers which issues they care about the most this election season.

There were 27 responses to the Daily Lobo survey. Participants were given the option to rank the top three most important issues to them during the upcoming election. Out of the 22 options, the “economy/cost of living” category was deemed most important based on a ranked-choice analysis.

The second most important issue to voters was democracy. Climate change was third, followed closely by abortion, international policy, health care and LGBTQ+ rights.

Out of the 22 options, only two were unmarked by any respondents: taxes and election integrity. Agriculture, drug reform and water were also among the least important issues to respondents.

Issues that respondents care about most, by identity type

Age

The majority of the survey respondents were 27 years old or younger — around the cutoff for the age range

of Generation Z, according to Pew Research Center.

Sixteen of the respondents were members of Gen Z. Nine respondents specified ages older than Gen Z. Between the “Gen Z and younger” category and the “millennial and older” category, there was no overlap in the three issues that respondents cared about the most.

Gen Z respondents cared the most about the “economy/cost of living” category, followed by the “democracy” and “abortion” categories. Older surveyees cared the most about climate change, international policy and racial justice, in that order.

Location

Respondents were given the option to input their zip code or general location.

The majority of the respondents lived in or near Albuquerque, while five lived in other parts of New Mexico or other states.

The “democracy” and “economy” categories both broke the top three most important issues for readers who lived both in and outside of Albuquerque.

Albuquerque residents cared about international policy the second most, while that didn’t break the top three for non-Albuquerque residents. People outside the Albuquerque area cared about health care the third most, while

that category didn’t break the top three for Albuquerque residents.

Gender

Respondents checked that they identified as “man,” “woman” or “nonbinary,” and one respondent preferred not to specify.

Women were the only group for which abortion was among the top three most important issues. Nonbinary people were the only group for which LGBTQ+ rights was among the top three.

Women also cared about the “economy/cost of living” category more than the other two groups. Men cared the most about democracy, followed by international policy and climate change.

Race and ethnicity

Respondents had the option of checking one box for the “race or ethnicity” question, which included a “multiracial” category. The majority of the respondents checked either “white” or “Hispanic or Latino.” The other categories that surveyees identified as were “Asian or Asian American,” “Black or African American,” “multiracial” and “other/prefer not to state.”

Members of the “white,” “Hispanic or Latino” and other categories — a collective of the additional demographics — all selected the “economy/ cost of living” category as one of their

top three issues. Hispanic or Latino surveyees cared about abortion first, while the “abortion” category wasn’t in the top three for the other races. Surveyees who did not select “white” or “Hispanic or Latino” cared about international policy more than the other races.

Intersectionality

Intersectionality is “the complex, cumulative way in which the effects of multiple forms of discrimination … intersect especially in the experiences of marginalized individuals or groups,” according to Merriam-Webster.

People who marked two or more of the following were classified as those who had intersectional identities: “woman,” “nonbinary,” any specified racial or ethnic category besides “white,”

and — as specified in the free-response section — members of the LGBTQ+ community, rural and farming communities, the neurodivergent community and disabled communities.

Respondents who had intersectional identities cared about abortion and climate change more than those who didn’t specify intersectional identities. Respondents who did not specify intersectional identities cared about democracy the most, while that category didn’t make the top three for people with intersectional identities.

Albuquerque City Council moves forward with AI policy implementation

By Addison Fulton @dailylobo

On Oct. 21, the Albuquerque City Council voted on a resolution to establish a working group designed to develop an artificial intelligence policy for the City of Albuquerque.

Resolution R-24-81 allocates $50,000 to supporting the creation of an Artificial Intelligence Policy Working Group, which will go toward addressing an AI policy for the City.

This includes creating a “prioritization matrix” — identifying potential uses and misuses of AI, according to the resolution. The group will also be charged with creating clear and universally understood definitions of “key terms related to AI development and implementation.”

Additionally, the task force will inventory current AI usage by City departments and analyze the risks

and costs of that usage.

The legislation was co-sponsored by District 7 City Councilor Tammy Fiebelkorn of Albuquerque and District 8 City Councilor Dan Champine.

According to the resolution, the task force will be staffed by the Department of Technology and Innovation and will include additional staff from other City departments and community entities.

“We’re not really sure what the future holds with this really dramatic change in technology,” Fiebelkorn said. “I realized that a lot of other cities, counties and states are developing AI use guidelines, but the City of Albuquerque has not done so.”

Fiebelkorn said the makeup of the task force and the choosing of its members was guided by what she saw on other task forces, as well as a look at which communities would be most impacted and how to ensure their voices were heard.

“This is not just a, ‘Hey, let’s have

the three smartest computer people get in a room and decide,’” Fiebelkorn said. “This is really a community conversation about what’s an appropriate use for the City of Albuquerque for AI.”

Fiebelkorn said she hopes that the task force will not only protect New Mexicans from the bad uses of AI, but also allow them to benefit from the good.

She stressed concerns with deepfake usage in elections and politics.

“It’s kind of like 20 years ago, when we started going online for everything. This is the next step. I think we have to acknowledge all of the problems that could exist and set up guardrails,” Fiebelkorn said. “I think we can do that.”

REVIEW: “BRAT” remix album transports listeners

By Elijah Ritch @dailylobo

On Oct. 11, Charli xcx released the long-awaited remix album of her zeitgeist-defining record “BRAT.”

The new project, entitled “Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat,” features remixes of all 15 tracks on “BRAT,” alongside remixes of two of the album’s three bonus tracks.

Every song features at least one new artist, each of whom brings their own sensibilities to Charli’s maximalist vision of life as an endless cycle of sex, drugs and 120 bpm.

Part of why the “BRAT” remix album works so well is because the songs are actually remixes. In a pop landscape where music is produced and marketed as quickly and cheaply as possible, remixes have become divorced from their original purpose.

Coinciding with the emergence of hip-hop and dance music in the 1980s, remixes became a way for outside producers and artists to come onto a track and turn it into something entirely new. Nowadays, so many songs that are touted as remixes are nothing more than pop songs with generic rap verses tacked on.

The vast majority of the songs on Charli’s new project don’t sound

much like their original versions — and the “BRAT” remix album is all the better for it.

The production on the original “BRAT” album is an exciting fusion of traditional pop formulas with elaborate electronic flourishes. On the remix album, Charli — alongside frequent collaborators such as A.G. Cook and George Daniel — pushes the sound of modern dance music into its further possible realm.

Tracks such as “Sympathy is a knife” and “365” are some of the standard record’s intensest moments, but in their remixed versions, featuring Ariana Grande and Shygirl, respectively, they devolve into a complete experimental free-for-all — transporting the listener straight to a dimly lit, late-night warehouse rave. You can feel the strobe lights blinding your eyes and the sweaty bodies surrounding you. Charli, as an artist, can take you right into that moment because it’s a space she knows intimately.

Some of the tracks aren’t that sonically different from their original versions, and on these, Charli intelligently employs artists who are sure to provide an unmissable moment.

“Girl, so confusing featuring lorde” and “Guess featuring billie eilish” both became all anyone could talk about online within minutes of their

release, with lines like “let’s work it out on the remix” and “Charli likes boys but she knows I’d hit it” instantly joining the pop culture lexicon.

So much of contemporary dance music falls flat because it’s designed solely to be played in H&M, but “BRAT” succeeds because Charli is a student of the genre and the atmospheres that it thrives in. As a teenager, she posted her tracks on Myspace, which grabbed the attention of underground rave organizers. What started out as a hobby that Charli’s parents would accompany her to as a 14-year-old girl has turned into a career as one of the most innovative pop stars of the 21st century.

Even as she’s found a global audience, Charli hasn’t left behind the environment she cut her teeth in.

“That whole scene really inspires me,” Charli said in a 2012 interview with Rolling Stone. “The fashion, the music, etc. Even with its stereotypes and limited scope, it really helped me become who I am as a performer today.”

Just like with the other instantly iconic dance record of the 2020s, Beyoncé’s “Renaissance,” Charli’s vast knowledge of the genre works to her advantage on “BRAT.” Like Beyoncé’s Grammy-winning record, “BRAT” is a textbook, inviting listeners to take a

journey alongside the artist through the progression of dance music, moving between decades and subgenres with an ease that only a master of her craft could possess.

“Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat” serves as a victory lap for Charli xcx in what’s been her biggest year yet. Hopefully her return to A-list status causes new fans to explore her discography, which includes some of the most forwardthinking pop music in recent years.

Its highlights include the albums “True Romance” and “how i’m feeling now,” as well as the mixtape “Pop 2.” Charli has an artistic vision and level of taste that is matched by few of her peers, and the immense success of “BRAT” and its accompanying remix album proves that tenfold.

votes, according to the New Mexico Secretary of State website.

New Mexico has voted Democratic since 2004, according to 270 to Win, and it is not considered a swing state this election. Political candidates and pundits usually focus on swing states due to their ability to sway voters and secure electoral college victories, according to NPR.

“I’m here for one simple reason,” Trump said. “I like you very much, and it’s good for my credentials with the Hispanic or Latino community.”

Throughout the rally, Trump re-

peatedly said “Hispanics love Trump.”

A poll conducted by the University of Chicago showed that Trump is getting higher levels of support among young Latino men this year than in 2020. Vice President Kamala Harris is leading Trump among registered Latino voters overall, but the advantage is the lowest it has been in the past four presidential election cycles, according to an NBC poll.

Trump attracts Americans outside of typical Republican audiences, such as younger people, Pearce said. One first-time rally attendee, Woody

The Wyoming Cowboys came into the game 1-7 on the year. Though in football it’s any given game, some might say the Lobos could have overlooked their opponent. But

Payne, wrote “Kamala” on his hat. He thinks Trump’s visit is unlikely to impact the way New Mexicans vote, he said.

Payne is not a Trump supporter, he said, but he wanted to see Trump with his own eyes.

“I couldn’t think of a scarier thing to do on Halloween than go to a Trump rally with a Kamala hat,” Payne said.

A protest organized by the Albuquerque Party for Socialism and Liberation took place near the venue. Protesters marched from the parking area toward CSI Aviation before being blocked by a line of police officers.

“I think we’ve seen that no matter who is president, we have a responsibility to each other,” Craft said. “They are not coming to save all of us. We have to do that for ourselves.”

Head Coach Bronco Mendenhall disagreed with that idea.

“Record means nothing to me. Our team knew it. We prepared, so there’s no chance — 0% chance — that they were overlooked,” Mendenhall said.

The Lobos will look to come back

After the rally, the Democratic Party of New Mexico described the rally as “unhinged” in a press release.

“Trump did not stop in New Mexico to win our votes, but as a sounding board to espouse divisive rhetoric on his Blue State hate tour,” the press release reads.

Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 5.

“I think that he’s not here just to make a stop. He’s got plenty of stops (in) bigger states, but he’s here because he thinks he can win New Mexico,” Pearce said. “We’ll see. Tuesday will tell a big tale.”
