@elonmusk Last time I checked, the president is not the only elected representative of the people.

@QMI_Foundation Unfortunately crime dramas don’t make any city look positive. It’s sort of baked into the cake, as it were.

Hold on…. The LOS ANGELES Times is hosting a screening of a show in which Long Beach is billed as “the most important character” at a theater in CULVER CITY? 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ Long Beach Erasure 2.0

@PrimeVideo if y’all want to host anything in the LBC I’ll help 🙋‍♀️

@FrankBuckleyTV go off! Bring the taxis back to the curb at @flyLAXairport. In contrast, traveling through @LGBAirport is a breeze ✈️ Just sayin. 😊

When I was a writer at the Long Beach Business Journal, Jim always took time to speak to us at length. He was very frank and open, even when called to task on serious issues. Applauded when I saw the news on ⁦⁦⁦@KTLA⁩ today. Congrats, Jim & LA! https://t.co/TsZWgjJgEJ

@RobertGarcia I am afraid to ask but: Who is… they?

[Visit Long Beach @VisitLB]

How do you pronounce “Ximeno?” 🤔

@KTLAMorningNews The cats are a little clingy after the quake to say the least. But at least Benny gets to watch @FrankBuckleyTV and Jessica tell him it’ll be okay :p @KTLAMorningNews. Felt it very intensely in Long Beach.

Key debate takeaways:
- Trump refused to answer whether he wanted Ukraine or Russia to win
- Trump wants you to believe abortion means babies are being executed after they are born
- Trump believes immigrants are roaming the streets eating our pets
- Kamala Harris is sane

How it started. How it's going. 

Ten years later, and it's still a good look! https://t.co/NKXRGNgJPv

Tonight, @KamalaHarris showed the world what I have known to be true. She is ready on day one to be President and represents the best of America. Let’s get to work.

Hitting the front pages of my home town papers the @latimes & @presstelegram today. We have to spread our message and fight back against the MAGA extremists every chance we get.

I’m incredibly proud to be an immigrant and an American. My mom always taught me to give back to this incredible country that has given us so much. https://t.co/av6tU0BBms

Do you dream of a wedding in a historic building oozing with character? Want to create a corporate party that would rival Gatsby? Our list of historic venues in Long Beach features places with incredible architecture that will make your event memorable: https://t.co/15RIW52oFQ

@NBCNews @NFL Welcome to Long Beach, CA folks. We’re our whole own thing.

[Samantha Mehlinger @SamMehlinger]

Honestly what could be a more Long Beach moment than the press calling us Venice? Why do you all think we’ve all got LB hats, tats and bumper stickers? We’re so proud of our city. Hollywood uses us as a stand in for Venice, Miami and other famous beaches all the time (1)

[Samantha Mehlinger @SamMehlinger]

@NBCNews @NFL The world is coming in 2028 and we’re going to invite y’all to see us as we are: the LBC. Home to SoCal rap, pickled eggs, 11 miles of waterways, a historic Queen and insane Cuisine Scene. Home to Space Beach, the Green Port, and more Olympic athletes than you can COUNT. (3)
