Dear Baker Mayfield, Thank you for wanting Cleveland when no one else did. Thank you for pulling Cleveland out of an abyss of losing. Thank you for the best Browns season many have ever had. Most importantly..... Thank YOU.

The Postmaster General must resign. He’s slowed delivery, banned overtime & decommissioned mail-sorting machines. Right before the election. During a pandemic. The House must demand answers. Hearings should start now. It can’t wait. We won’t let Trump destroy the Post Office.

Not true, @realDonaldTrump. I wrote to you more than 600 days ago demanding answers after you fired the entire White House pandemic team.
.@Yamiche: Why did you shut down the pandemic office in the White House Trump first calls it a "nasty question." Then says someone else shut it down. "I don't know anything about it."

For those of you saying that Odell deserved to be arrested. Shut up! I was a cop for 3 years. This is so petty. It's all based on discretion. I had a dude headbutt me and I didn't press charges. What Odell did was weird but not a big deal lol. Gtfo if here! Lol

We have to end the practice of drawing our congressional districts so that politicians can pick their voters, not the other way around #SOTU
