[rock music] Tonight, the race on our radar is Florida's 22nd congressional district, which was drastically redrawn by Republicans this year to make it more Republican-friendly.

Now, the 22nd district is currently represented by the Democrat Lois Frankel, but she's running for re-election in the also newly redrawn 23rd district, which gives you a sense of how much the Florida map has changed.

Now, under the old map, the 22nd was a narrow, uh, densely populated district containing much of Palm Beach, uh, County's coast, including Boynton Beach and Delray Beach, but take a look at the new map You can see a totally different shape.

You're gonna see it in a second when we get that loaded on.

She's studying legal communications and Howard University's pre-law track and has a passion for public service.

Today, we're going to talk to her about her studies and experiences so far, including an internship over the summer with Representative Lois Frankel of Florida.

Serenity, welcome to the podcast.

Thank you for having me.

And it segues very well into some of the other questions that we have for you.

So we're really excited to hear about your experience over the summer on Capitol Hill.

Could you tell us a bit about what that was like? What drew you to your internship with Representative Lois Frankel? And did you learn anything over the summer that surprised you?

Yes.

I feel like there was more Republican outcry, honestly, about the Epstein files than there was Democrat.

After all, it was Lois, wonderful Lois Frankel, who was the mayor at the time when Jeffrey Epstein was not brought to justice and probably could have saved more lives.

And that's people who are living and damaged and people who actually perished, including Virginia Giuffre, okay? Mm-hmm.

Oh, she froze up.

Democrat Lois Frankel speaking underneath the flight path of planes taking off from President Donald J. Trump International Airport.

This is what people are living with every 90 seconds.

The flight path changed last year to divert planes from the president's Palm Beach estate.

Hakeem Jeffries, just to underscore the point in case there was any doubt about how Israel wins, regardless of who wins in November.

A Jewish hardcore Israel loyalist named Jared Moskowitz, who's from South Florida, the same area where W. Wasserman Schultz is from and Lois Frankel is from.

Very big Jewish population, extremely pro-Israel.

I grew up there, Broward County.
