Is there any proof that these men were “federal agents”?
The video labels them that but the post notes they were masked and unidentified.
Looks like an attempted carjacking, not anything resembling an arrest.
They ask for badges and the guy silently puts on black gloves?

Video shows the family fleeing after masked and unidentified men attempted to detain them and firing three gun shots at the passenger side door behind where the son was sitting.

Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee spent four years and hundreds of thousands of lives trying to occupy Washington, DC. MAGA accomplished it without firing a shot.
South Carolina was the first state to secede. If South Carolina troops are the first in DC, let that symbolism not be lost on anyone.

It will slowly dawn on more & more people that the only adversaries Trump sees are the American people themselves. He will make nice w/the world’s worst and use the military as a tool of oppression domestically. Private prisons, ICE & GOP Governors will all go along w/gestapo.
Imagine how much money one could make if they were to make nice with all the enemies of democracy and instead deploy USA’s military against its own citizens to feed the private prison industry. Trump gets a big cut. He’s part of something much bigger & more sinister. Wake up USA.

There need to be efforts to get Trump supporters to abandon Trump. We live in a highly polarized society in which tens of millions of our fellow citizens have become radicalized. But I refuse to believe anyone thinks this kind of behavior is acceptable from the president of the United States.
