The clutch looks like it needs to be adjusted, not sure what’s causing the other issue with the agitator shaft being locked up. More than likely locked up to the spin tube, only way I can think about fixing that is to remove the transmission and remove the spin tube off of the agitator shaft if it’s possible and put some grease in the spin tube and put a little on the spin tube itself to be sure it won’t lock up or do anything peculiar.

That doesn't look like just a clutch issue, it does appear as Chris said that agitator shaft is frozen inside the spin shaft. The wash basket seems to rotate back and forth with the agitator which isn't suppose to happen. The entire transmission is going to need to be pulled out of the machine and the spin tube assembly will need to be removed and lubricated on the inside at minimum.
