Multiple reports say Secret Service agents assigned to Vice President JD Vance and his family are frustrated with the frequency of last-minute travel requests. Mediaite, citing MS NOW, reports that agents are “fed up” with repeated changes that require additional advance preparation for security operations. The Independent similarly reports that agents are reportedly “fed up” with Vance over last-minute travel demands, describing the issue as one involving repeated short-notice planning requirements.
Across the accounts, the core allegation is that the Vice President’s travel schedule frequently involves changes on short notice, which can increase the logistical burden on protective teams. The reports do not provide detailed examples, specific dates, or information on whether the matter has been formally addressed by the Secret Service or the Vice President’s office. Nor do they specify any consequences or changes to security procedures. The coverage reflects claims attributed to unnamed sources and framed as frustration within the assigned protective detail.
