The White House posted past and current comments by the Dems about the capture of Maduro;with all the proper footnotes . Saved me a lot of time. .
Democrats Once Demanded Maduro’s Ouster. Now They Mourn His Capture — Because Trump Did It. – The White House (https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2026/01/democrats-once-demanded-maduros-ouster-now-they-mourn-his-capture-because-trump-did-it/)
Got one more flashback to add to the list
This was January last year .Clueless Joe put a bounty towards Maduro's arrest .
“Since last year’s election, Maduro and his associates have continued their repressive actions in Venezuela,” said Acting Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Bradley T. Smith. “The United States, together with our likeminded partners, stands in solidarity with the Venezuelan people’s vote for new leadership and rejects Maduro’s fraudulent claim of victory.”In the months since the Venezuelan presidential elections on July 28, 2024, the United States and its allies in the region have pushed Maduro to commit to a democratic transition. Instead, Maduro and his representatives have continued their violent repression in an attempt to maintain power, and have ignored the Venezuelan people’s calls from for democratic accountability.
Concurrently, as part of the Narcotics Rewards Program, the Department of State is increasing the reward offers to up to $25 million each for information leading to the arrest and/or convictions of Maduro and Maduro’s named Minister of Interior, Justice, and Peace Diosdado Cabello, as well as adding a new reward of up to $15 million for Maduro’s named Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino. The Department of State also imposed new visa restrictions under Presidential Proclamation 9931 on Maduro-aligned officials who have undermined the electoral process in Venezuela and are responsible for acts of repression.
