A daughter has publicly shamed her own mother for being punched in the face during a violent encounter at a Pro-Trump protest in Washington D.C on Wednesday.

Helena Duke, 18, identified her mom in viral video footage from a fight which broke out near the Capitol during the insurrection, telling Newsweek she was "disappointed to be related to her".

"Hi mom remember the time you told me I shouldn't go to BLM protests bc they could get violent ... this you?," Helena Duke wrote on Twitter in response to the video.

In the clip, a young Black woman who appears to be a uniformed police officer, holds up her phone in a crowd of Trump supporters wearing MAGA caps and brandishing flags.

A white woman appears to lean over in an attempt to grab the phone, knocking it from her hand.

The Black woman turns around and appears to confront her, throwing a punch to the white woman's face. It is unclear what words are exchanged between the women.

Three men are then seen carrying the Black woman across a police line to join a group of officers.

Chaos ensues as the mob descends on police and more violence breaks out between the protesters.

The white woman is seen shortly after with a bloody face and addresses others filming the encounter.

"Who hit you?" a man is heard asking. "That Black girl," the woman replies.

The video, which has amassed nearly 7 million views since it was posted to Twitter on Wednesday, is said to have been taken from a fight between BLM and Trump supporters at Freedom Plaza in Washington D.C.

Helena Duke seized the opportunity to shame her mother, who she claims is a long-standing Trump supporter.

"Her actions were appalling and I did not think she could possibly stoop this low," the 18-year-old told Newsweek. "I do find her participation in the insurrection extremely hypocritical as she has kicked me out of the house for attending BLM protests."

Duke clarified that her mother, Therese Duke, has previously warned her not to attend BLM protests because of potential violence.

"Seeing her harass a black woman and attending a violent event is very hypocritical of her," Duke added.

She also took the opportunity to correct her mother over social media, saying: "Mom I think you mean to say that powerful black woman punched you for harassment." (The way these Millennials talk makes me want to puke.-drvoke)

Duke claimed her uncle and aunt were also in attendance at the protest.

Many have praised Duke's bravery in coming forward to identify her mother.

"Traitor take down of the day! Winner goes to Helena Duke!" one woman said.

"Her own daughter turned her in! Turned in her mom, her uncle, and her aunt!" another added. "Let's all salute Helena Duke for opposing her mom's racism and hypocrisy. You've done good Helena!

1. She's only 18. I hope she has someplace to go because living with Mom may not be possible now.nt

2. Huh?

"The way these Millennials talk makes me want to puke..."

Except for the possible omission of a comma, I see nothing wrong with it. Or was this sarcasm?

6. Yeah, agreed -- wth

3. After first seeing this yesterday, I wondered about the 3 men who moved her

to the police lines. I thought they were aligned with the MAGA's and presented her to the police for punching Mama Duke.

From this it, sounds like they were undercover and moved her to protect one of their own. If true, it's a good lesson that in a crowd, those around you might not be who you think they are.

5. There's something similar happening in the video of the AP photographer getting attacked

A group of thugs shove him off a ledge but then a couple people in the crowd try to help him get away.

7. Very interesting, thanks.

4. I admit,

I watched the video several times thinking how awesome the Capitol police officer was in her immediate response to the wench grabbing at her phone. It was a perfectly landed, reflexive hit and it was glorious.

And I am thrilled at the outing by her daughter.

9. Something disturbed me about that video though.

After the officer lands the punch, it appears that three Trump supporters grab the officer and "deliver" her to the other Capitol police. If they had grabbed her and taken her in a different direction and surrounded her in the crowd God knows what might have happened to her.

8. That black girl

Ugly on so many levels.

I feel for Helena Duke.

[2naSalit]

10. What?

She was defending herself and her phone.

[KentuckyWoman]

11. No.... I meant

Helena's mom ...

Who hit you.
That black girl.

That is all she cared about ... a black woman would not be ordered about by a white woman.

Helena managed to grow beyond that kind of ugly .... but it could not have been easy.

12. Oh.
