Unbelievable! @tysonbeckford1 sent me these videos of his friend Robert, who was arrested w/o cause by 6 Miami officers who tackled & punched him!! He did nothing wrong and was released within hours, but we need to let Miami PD know that this isn't a GAME — it's POLICE BRUTALITY.

Important point by @AOC: "It’s a physical impossibility to lift yourself up by a bootstrap." She's right. 60% of all wealth in America is inherited. “Pull yourself up by the bootstraps” is a cruel joke.
