    The Trump administration is now offering a $50 million reward
    to anyone who can provide information leading to the arrest
    of Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro, who is widely considered
    a dictator.

    The announcement came directly from Attorney General Pam Bondi,
    who accused Maduro of conspiring with multiple gangs to bring
    guns and illegal drugs into the United States.

    'Maduro uses foreign terrorist organizations like [Tren de
    Aragua], Sinaloa and Cartel of the Suns to bring deadly drugs
    and violence into our country,' she said.

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has so far seized
    30 tons of cocaine that were subsequently linked to Maduro
    and his associates, Bondi said.

    Nearly seven tons of that total was linked to Maduro himself,
    she added, explaining that this represents a primary source
    of income for gangs operating in Venezuela and Mexico.

    'Cocaine is often laced with fentanyl, resulting in the loss
    and destruction of countless American lives,' Bondi said.

    Maduro, 62, has been in the crosshairs of the American justice
    system since March 2020, when he was indicted in the Southern
    District of New York on a litany of charges related to drug
    trafficking.

    . . .

    Will Maduro take out a contract on Trump now ???

    'Decapitation' was long avoided because it can
    easily escalate out of control and do huge damage
    to the international picture. Besides, it's best
    if an enemy surrenders, or is displaced from
    within.
