US Now Offering $50 Million Reward for Info Leading to Maduro’s Arrest
Updated August 9, 2025 at 11:35 AM
As the clock ticks, the United States seems to be cranking the printing press into overdrive, motivated by an unusual goal: nabbing Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
The U.S. government has now upped the ante with a whopping $50 million reward for information that could lead to Maduro’s arrest, as announced by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday.
In a recent video posted on X, Bondi didn’t hold back, suggesting that Maduro has been playing nice with some not-so-nice characters like Tren de Aragua and the infamous Sinaloa Cartel.
This bounty increase flips the script on an earlier offer of $25 million for clues related to the Venezuelan leader.
It seems that the U.S. is not just throwing spare change into the wishing well but is instead going all in, hoping that someone will step forward with the information to put a big “Wanted” stamp on Maduro’s forehead.
