    3 weeks ago | thenewenglandnewsletter.substack.com | Benjamin Cassidy

    It was early afternoon when I realized I wasn’t going to make it. I was seven years old, home from school with a raging fever, and determined to watch Opening Day at Fenway Park. My Red Sox fandom was still in its infancy. I’d first visited Fenway on my sixth birthday, glove in hand, baseball cap propped on my head. The hat’s brim was no match for the sun that afternoon. I remember squinting at the field and barely making out the players, let alone the ball. I’d never felt so hot.

    The foot of a ski mountain is an unlikely site for a mass protest, but that’s exactly what Sugarbush Resort in Vermont became last weekend in advance of vice president JD Vance’s arrival for a family trip. On the heels of president Donald Trump and Vance’s puerile tag-team rebuke of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as well as ongoing federal layoffs, the VP decided to head with his wife and three children to the slopes of the Mad River Valley.
