Vance Family Forced Into Hiding After Pro-Ukraine Mob Targets Their Vacation [WATCH]

Vice President J.D. Vance and his family were relocated to an undisclosed location due to security concerns after a group of pro-Ukraine protesters gathered at a Vermont ski resort where they had planned a vacation.

The demonstration took place at Sugarbush Resort, where Vance, his wife Usha, and their three young children were scheduled to stay.

Protesters lined up outside the resort just a day after a tense Oval Office meeting between President Donald Trump, Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The meeting, which initially started on a cordial note, quickly turned confrontational after Zelensky refused to sign an economic agreement with the U.S. and continued pushing for additional military aid.

Vance pushed back on Zelensky’s demands, at which point the Ukrainian leader warned that the U.S. would face national security threats if the Trump administration chose to halt its support for the war.

President Trump reacted strongly to the comment and ended negotiations, later stating that Zelensky would not be invited back to the White House in the foreseeable future.

The next day, organized protests erupted at the Vermont resort, with demonstrators targeting Vance over his opposition to continued military funding for Ukraine.

Many of the protesters, reportedly older liberal women, held signs calling Vance a “traitor” and urging him to “go ski in Russia.”

However, counter-protesters also showed up in support of Vance and the administration’s policies.

A row of pickup trucks displaying “Make America Great Again” flags lined the opposite side of the road, while other groups of counter-protesters engaged in verbal confrontations with the anti-Vance demonstrators.

According to the New York Post, tensions ran high outside the resort as both sides clashed.

Despite the large presence of counter-protesters, mainstream media outlets provided significantly less coverage of their demonstrations.

This has become a recurring pattern in recent weeks as Democratic activists have launched coordinated disruptions at Republican-led town halls and public events.

Democratic National Committee chair Ken Martin has cited these protests as evidence of public opposition to the Trump administration, though the extent of their grassroots nature remains a point of debate.

During the Oval Office meeting on Friday, Vance criticized Zelensky for his approach and said he should acknowledge Trump’s efforts to end the conflict.

“With respect, I think it’s disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office to try to litigate this in front of the American media,” Vance told Zelensky.

“Right now you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. You should be thanking the president for trying to bring an end to this conflict.”

Following the protests at Sugarbush Resort, the Vance family was forced to take an alternative ski route down the mountain to avoid the demonstrators.

Ultimately, they cut their trip short and were relocated to a secure, undisclosed location for safety reasons.

Security concerns surrounding Ukraine-related activism have grown in recent years, particularly regarding threats from Ukrainian ultranationalist groups.

Some factions have reportedly compiled “kill lists” targeting prominent American politicians, including President Trump and Vice President Vance, due to their stance on ending the war.

These groups have also vowed to carry out targeted attacks against what they describe as “pro-Putin propagandists.”

Additionally, Ryan Routh, the would-be assassin who attempted to target President Trump, had a known history of supporting Ukraine.

Reports indicate that Routh had previously tried to recruit foreign fighters from Afghanistan to join the Ukrainian army. In 2022, he traveled to Ukraine, where he was profiled by The New York Times.

His assassination attempt was thwarted when Secret Service agents intercepted him as he set up a sniper’s nest near Trump’s South Florida golf course.

The ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and Ukraine continue to spark backlash, with protests and security threats becoming an increasing concern for U.S. officials.
