Masked men, some carrying Confederate flags, were seen marching in Washington, D.C., on the Fourth of July.

“Reclaim America, reclaim America,” the crowd was heard chanting in a video captured near Union Station by WTOP’s Mitchell Miller, who reported the group called for the removal of immigrants.

In Miller's video, some members of the group can be seen carrying flags that appear to depict the Patriot Front logo. The Anti-Defamation League describes Patriot Front as a white supremacist group.

Other videos on social media appear to show the group marching near the Eastern Market Metro station.

Finn Gomez, a Getty Images photographer, shared an image of people in face masks and apparent Patriot Front gear riding Metro.
