Trump admin announces $50M reward for capture of Venezuela dictator Nicolás Maduro

NYPost:

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration on Thursday offered a $50 million reward for information leading to the arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro.

“Maduro uses foreign terrorist organizations like [Tren de Aragua], Sinaloa and Cartel of the Suns to bring deadly drugs and violence into our country,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a video posted on X.

The Drug Enforcement Administration has thus far seized 30 tons of cocaine linked to Maduro and his associates, Bondi said, and “nearly seven tons linked to Maduro himself, which represents a primary source of income for the deadly cartels based in Venezuela and Mexico.” more

  1. It would be a whole lot cheaper to just send a SEAL team and park 3 P226 rounds in his brainpan. To “arrest” him seems fraught with all manner of legalities, which are best avoided.

  2. That works out to 21 million dollars for AA and 49 million for Brad. Still not a bad haul for either. Is the reward money tax free or not since the vast majority of the money would go to the feds otherwise. Or the state of California in Brad’s case, AA might see a little more since Wash. state doesn’t have an income tax.

  4. I own a P226. Not my fav weapon. It’s got the anchor stamp on it, so it’s actually a Navy Seal designated weapon. A true double action. Problem is that first double action trigger pull is between 18 and 20 pounds. A throw away shot just to get in single action mode. After the guns in battery it’s a nail driver, no question.At under two pound pull. It’s designed with a de cocking lever as a safety. Which puts you right back double action mode. I’m not carrying that gun in the number one condition with a hair trigger. I love thee gun for punching holes in paper I just don’t think it was ever a good tactical weapon. Lot’s of Seal opted for 19111s back then.
