As if President Trump intended to meet professional US mercenary Erik Prince half way, US Attorney General Pam Bondi increased the existing US bounty on President Nicolas Maduro — originally set at $15 million — from $25m to $50m for anyone providing “information leading to his arrest or conviction.”

In late 2024, Prince, a professional mercenary, alongside Venezuela’s far right, promoted a plan to deploy a private army to Venezuela. He suggested that if the US raised the bounty on Maduro’s head to $100 million, targeting not only the president but also Diosdado Cabello and the entire government, they could “just sit back and wait for the magic to happen.” Prince and Venezuela’s far right even launched a crowdfunding campaign, Ya Casi Venezuela (“Almost There, Venezuela”), to collect the $100 million.
