what's the easiest way to attach a video instead of picture

I had a officer intentionally send me in the wrong direction today when I asked about the polls after doing so, I went back and recorded asking him about if he was new to the area, in which you can clearly see him lie, then fake describe the building where he knew voting was. After all… he was an officer there for a specific reason today.

    Put it on a USB drive and attach it to its foot with a bit of ribbon. Use a shoelace knot so that if need be the crow can untie it.

Not sure if your description is related to the question, but you can upload the video probably in the same way you would an image, or upload it to a file host like YouTube, imgur or catbox, and then send the link in the link field.

Lemmy also allows sharing of images and videos. To upload an image, go to the Create post page and click the little image icon under the URL field. This allows you to select a local image. If you made a mistake, a popup message allows you to delete the image. The same image button also allows uploading of videos in .gif format. Instead of uploading a local file, you can also simply paste the URL of an image or video from another website.

Note that this functionality is not meant to share large images or videos, because that would require too many server resources. Instead, upload them on another platform like PeerTube or Pixelfed, and share the link on Lemmy.

That said, the more important thing I wanted to say was that you should report that officer. Here’s an infographic with state-specific hotline numbers to do so:
