Witness Describes US Directed-Energy Weapon Used in Maduro Capture Raid
A U.S. directed-energy weapon caused severe symptoms and enabled a small unit to kill hundreds of Maduro's defenders without casualties, per a witness shared by the White House.
- On January 3, 2026, U.S. forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in an operation that produced explosions over Caracas and caused an estimated 100 security-force deaths, Venezuela’s Interior Ministry said.
- President Donald Trump ordered the raid early on Jan. 3 to capture Nicolás Maduro, Venezuelan President, now in U.S. custody on narco-terrorism charges amid attacks on small Venezuelan vessels.
- A Venezuelan guard recounted how a `mystery weapon` incapacitated defenders with nosebleeds and vomiting as barely eight helicopters deployed roughly 20 U.S. troops and drones, routing defenders.
- The White House did not immediately confirm verification after Leavitt shared the guard’s account on X, noting the raid sent shockwaves across Latin America and referencing Trump’s warning about Mexico ‘on the list’.
- An ex-U.S. intelligence source told The Post the U.S. has had directed-energy weapons for years, and the unnamed Venezuelan guard said the weapon `still haunts him`.

Just when you thought in 2026 that Democrats would finally wake up and put America first, they don’t. Instead of supporting the capture of known drug kingpin and socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro, who bled his country of Venezuela into poverty, forcing millions to leave the country, Dems are mad. They seem to care more about him than the millions of Venezuelans who were brutalized under his reign of terror.
