Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt told everyone on X to drop whatever we were doing and read an interview from one of Maduro’s soldiers on the ground that night.

He says they were physically incapacitated by some sort of sonar. It made them vomit, vomit blood, bloody noses, incoherence and incapable of moving.

Trump told us in his speech after Maduro’s capture that he didn’t think we would need to have a second wave.

Here's a relevant video clip from C-SPAN of President Trump speaking at a press conference on January 9, 2026, where he discusses Venezuela and states that a planned "second wave" of attacks is likely not needed due to recent developments and cooperation.

President Trump on Venezuela: "I don’t think it's going to be necessary to do the second wave. We were planning on a second wave but the first wave was so powerful and so good and so strong."
