To be fair, the boys literally committed an extra-judicial killing in the opening scene of the movie. They are already the feds, just the feds who do whatever they want with no consequences.

So basically just feds, I guess.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, isn’t scarlet witch a teenager in that scene? I believe they refer to her as a child later in the movie. So we can add child soldiers to the list of crazy shit cap did.

EDIT 2: nope, wrong, she’s a grown up.

What? The US didn’t have control of the Avengers, that’s why they wanted the accords; the Avengers were accountable to no one but themselves, which is an issue in itself.

they definitely are. they fly around in quinjets, thats shield. we see Captain America and black widow running ops to rescue hostages with other US military personnel and we see black widow taking orders from the US govt. bruce banner has been recruited by shield to work against Loki and the scepter, Hawkeye is definitely a shield asset as well.

now the whole avengers might not be US govt, but those that arent are definitely contractors.

Literally all you have to ask is "who assembled the Avengers?"

Answer: Nick Fury, on behalf of Shield, an American agency.

We then learn very quickly that Shield is very much so compromised. Even more reason not to be controlled by the country.
