The Patriot Front, a white nationalist organization, marched through the streets of the United States capital on the 250th anniversary of the United States.

Several videos posted to social media show masked individuals clad in navy-blue shirts, khaki pants, tan baseball caps, sunglasses, and white cloth face coverings marching through Washington D.C., carrying American flags, Confederate flags, and other banners.

“Reclaim America, reclaim America,” the crowd was heard chanting in a video captured and posted to social media by WTOP’s Mitchell Miller, who reported the group called for getting rid of immigrants.

Photographers also documented members of the far-right group at the Eastern Market Metro station and on public transit.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) classifies the Patriot Front as a white supremacist group that believes that America belongs exclusively to descendants of European settlers.
