Accountability MediaOn June 25th, 2019 I visited the US Naval Observatory in Washington DC. I am assuming the helicopter was using the Marine 2 designation, meaning VP Pence was onboard, as the timing would line up with his return from an event in Miami earlier that day.

During my visit, I was illegally detained and searched by (former) Captain Edward Bernat (badge #90) and (former) Sergeant Jeffrey Tolliver (badge #737).

The National Assembly declared that Guaidó has assumed the role of president, but Maduro still enjoys the support of the majority of the armed forces. 54 countries have recognized Guaidó.
When Maduro's diplomats vacated the Embassy of Venezuela in DC, they left key cards with Code Pink and other American anti-intervention activists who are determined to stay in the embassy until Maduro's representatives return.
Outside the building on May 1st and 2nd, 2019, Pro-Guaidó Venezuelans protest the activists' presence and attempt to block more activists, food, water, and other supplies from entering.

Note: After searching the truck K-9 Officer "Joe" stopped to talk, holding his dog within approximately a foot of one of the embassy security personnel. The dog showed no signs of aggression and Joe clearly wasn't worried about any aggression from the dog. This demonstrates that he ordered me to move only in an attempt to deny my right to film. Sorry for not including it originally, but here is a link to that clip on imgur: imgur.com/I43E5yo
Update: A complaint concerning the Secret Service K-9 Officer has been filed with the DHS Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties.
