People jeered Vice President JD Vance at the Kennedy Center on Thursday night.
“JD Vance’s Boo at Tonight’s Concert at Kennedy Center” tweeted Guardian Andrewroth’s Global Affairs correspondent when sharing the episode’s video on Thursday evening.
Sitting next to his wife Usha, Vance waved from the balcony in a dissonance.

Special mission president Richard Grenell, who works in the leadership position with the Kennedy Center, suggested that political left people are “intolerant.”
“The intolerable left is an extremist who can’t even sit in the same room as people like them who don’t vote. What happened to Democrats today? They’re very intolerant,” he declared as he commented on the episode.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Vance team on Friday to request comment, but no comments were provided.
The Kennedy Center director encourages Republicans to attend, saying, “Everyone is welcome.”
The event was an orchestra concert by the National Symphony Orchestra, the report shows.
Vance, author of the book “Hillbilly Elegy,” has noticed that he was shocked to learn that people were listening to classical music for fun.
“Elites use different languages, eat different foods and listen to different music. When I found out that people listen to classical music for pleasure, I was surprised – and generally occupy a different world from the poor people in America,” Vance said.

President Donald Trump announced the shaking of the Kennedy Center leaders last month.
“I have decided to quickly close multiple individuals from the board, including a chairman who does not share a vision for the golden age of arts and culture. We will soon announce a new board meeting with the incredible chairman Donald J. Trump!” the president declared in February in part of the Truth Social Post.
He later announced that Grenell would serve as interim executive director.
“The board has elected President Donald J. Trump as the Kennedy Center’s board chairperson, replacing former chairman David M. Rubenstein,” and “ends the contract for Kennedy Center President Deborah F. Lutter and announces Richard Grenell as interim Kennedy Center President.”
The press release also noted that more than a dozen new Kennedy Center Council members have been announced, including Usha Vance, Trump and others.
