美國副總統范斯( JD Vance)在前往佛蒙特州滑雪勝地時，沿途遭遇數百名親烏克蘭抗議者的抗議，迫使他改變行程，去更隱密的滑雪地點。星期五在白宮的記者招待會上，川普、范斯與烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基(Volodymyr Zelenskyy)發生史上罕見的嚴重衝突，其中范斯被認為是火上澆油者。
紐約郵報(NY post)報導，范斯和他的家人在前往糖樹山( Sugarbush)度假村的途中，受到了佛蒙特州小鎮韋茨菲爾德(Waitsfield)居民的在大雪覆蓋的街道兩旁抗議。https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-0&features=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%3D%3D&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1895846989033849203&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chinatimes.com%2Frealtimenews%2F20250302003205-260408&sessionId=92b9f7ecd05974620f37d07dfbdc765f9990c036&theme=light&widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&width=550px
抗議者舉著標語，稱范斯是「國恥」(national disgrace)、「叛徒」(traitor)，並鼓勵他一家¬「去俄羅斯滑雪」(go ski in Russia)。
一塊標語寫道：「你就沒有羞恥心嗎？支持烏克蘭！」
也有「讓美國再次偉大」(MAGA)的反抗議者前去抵制，一輛輛掛著MAGA旗幟的皮卡車，也行駛在韋茨菲爾德的主街上。與反范斯的人士發生了爭吵。https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-1&features=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%3D%3D&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1895876202197385571&lang=en&maxWidth=560px&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chinatimes.com%2Frealtimenews%2F20250302003205-260408&sessionId=92b9f7ecd05974620f37d07dfbdc765f9990c036&theme=light&widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&width=550px
范斯原本計劃住在度假村附近的一家四星級酒店，但是看到這些激烈抗議後，他轉移到了一個未公開的地點。
這些示威抗議者，甚至在他們認為范斯夫婦滑雪地點附近紮營，想要讓他們在搭乘滑雪纜車時，也會看到這些抗議標語。
這場抗議活動早在本週稍早就已計劃好 ，原本的抗議主題是反對川普政府削減聯邦政府開支。但在橢圓形辦公室糾紛之後，抗議活動變得更加激烈。文章來源：Vance family moved to undisclosed location after hundreds of pro-Ukraine protesters swarm ski resort ahead of vacation
