The United States military used a secret weapon during the operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, President Donald Trump told the New York Post on January 24, calling the system “The Discombobulator”.
Trump boasted that the weapon “made [enemy] equipment not work” when U.S. helicopters landed in Caracas on January 3 to capture Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, in what became known later as “Operation Absolute Resolve”.
“The Discombobulator. I’m not allowed to talk about it,” Trump said during an exclusive interview in the Oval Office.
“They never got their rockets off. They had Russian and Chinese rockets, and they never got one off. We came in, they pressed buttons and nothing worked. They were all set for us,” he added.
Trump’s revelation followed on-the-ground accounts from Venezuela describing how troops guarding Maduro were brought to their knees, “bleeding through the nose” and vomiting blood.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on January 10 shared on X an alleged interview with one of the Venezuelan troops who survived the battle.
The guard described how U.S. forces wiped out “hundreds” of fighters without losing a single soldier, using technology unlike anything he has ever seen.
“We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation,” the guard said. “The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn’t know how to react.”
Moments later, a handful of helicopters appeared — “barely eight,” according to the guard — deploying what he estimated were just 20 U.S. troops into the area.
“They were technologically very advanced,” the guard recalled describing the troops. “They didn’t look like anything we’ve fought against before.”
“We were hundreds, but we had no chance,” he continued. “They were shooting with such precision and speed; it felt like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute.”
“At one point, they launched something—I don’t know how to describe it… it was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside. We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move,” he added.
An estimated 100 people, including 32 Cuban military and security personnel, were reportedly killed during the U.S. operation, not “hundreds” as the guard said.
Taking into account what Trump revealed and the testimony of the Venezuelan guard, it is safe to assume that the U.S. military employed multiple systems at the same time to facilitate its operation in Caracas. Attributing all of these effects to a single system is unrealistic.
Venezuela air defenses were likely displayed using electronic warfare means, some cyber weapon, or may have been compromised by some complex sabotage operation. The Discombobulator described by Trump was likely something within these lines.
Of course the use of something more advanced like some direct energy or electromagnetic system is also a possibility, although way less realistic.
As for what affected the troops guarding Maduro, this was likely a whole other thing. The U.S. military may have used some secret sonic weapon, but it is even more likely that some top secret non-lethal chemical weapon was employed, something like an incapacitating agent.
It’s worth noting that several such chemical weapons are completely odorless. Thus, it is normal that the guard didn’t report smelling anything.
All in all, it looks like the U.S. military employed some of its best technology and techniques during the operation to capture Maduro. More information on weapons like The Discombobulator will likely surface later.

so venezuelas defense minister was right when he said the americans employed some sort of experimental weapon.
50million of us dollar +bonus and green light to helicopters
about one weeks takings by the drug cartels that they won’t be taking now .mind you rheewz going to be a lot of unhappy junkies and dealers suddenly unable to pay their bills .
if you haven’t mingied with the in crowd of approved dealers then you would be clueless obviously .if you’ve only known the outsiders .allegedly .
it should be noted that the reform only affected the structure of the ground forces. the international legion of the main intelligence directorate of ukraine operates separately and continues to function as usual.

microwave weapons. they have blindness weapons ready to use on their own population too.
test bed in minnesota with the rest of the palantir architecture ready to go in 5… 4… 3… 2… 1…
really if course you read it on google years ago like everyone else in the world .hello ??? you think rheye actually going to tell the truth ? grow up .sitting there thinking some alleged soldiers telling the story to sf as if .
israel will do the same to iran, lebanon ,gaza and all other criminals spreading their terrorism under their own maduro’s dictatorship 🇮🇱❤
hahaha as if you’re not obnoxiously obvious .
ahhh s-f is so butt hurt they won’t allow the comment to go through. as per their u$ual these past 6 years and like zh. i miss their old consistent and truthful reportage unblemished by partisan propoganda. those were the days… and this clearly illustrates that anything web based or other that touches north america and western europe must be sanitized by the langley/mi6/mo$$ad free press…
no in fact joe biden handed complete control of the internet over to a select group of faithful followers to run as their www.
the advance weapon was the corruption among venezuelan army that sold his president! 12 helicopter chinook flying over caracas are an easy target for an army with plenty of manpads, thermal image and 50cal gun mounted in pick up trucks. even taliban shot down many us helicopters in similar operations
the us might have an emf type weapon ? perhaps this is also in the iran plan.
it’s true, it sounds like a science fiction story for idiots. the only weapon used is corruption, so assuming this secret weapon exists, it can wipe out an entire country? and what about the people filming the helicopters? wasn’t this weapon used against them? pure propaganda.
agreed, radar systems don’t work very well if you’ve been paid to switch them off…..
putin is next…heheheh
inferior species americunts proof darwin was wrong
youre total transparency is revealing of your inferiority .and you actually think you’re not .
more rubbish story telling everyone’s known about those type of emf dews for decades except drongoez
venezuela generals as well as putin instructors were paid not to activate missile defense systems.why is putin not forcing the release of maduro but goes in trilateral talks with the enemy
because there’s various possibilities revolving around not bring transparent to enemies. believe it or not war isn’t an open book.
zelenski got full begging of trump to sabotage russian oil to enable trump to steal venezuela oil and start selling lng.trump and natayahu wants to sabotage iran oil market but scared to make action.putin wants to fire lavrov nd medvedev according trump instruction over non transparent calls.
rubbish there’s so much oil around lots of countries have actually closed down their production totally just to not flood the market.
exactly like in australia they’ve shut down the argyle pink diamond mines to increase” rarity “. shut down gold mines, driven dairy farmers out of business, and pretend empty houses everywhere aren’t real
they probably sold the houses to germans, which “produce” crap on youtube, and get payed for to “produce” empty houses. only the farmers can avoid anyone produce own food, all cannibals are happy, especially banks and brokers.
usa warships have enter middle est for the final own dist-ructions revelation isaiah 60v22 in going to be fulfill.even useless macron hijack russian oil ships and putin does nothing
no russia has said they know britain was behind that, and they’ve said ” england is playing a dangerous game” adding “acting as hooligans”.
the bamboozling is getting to absurd levels
discombobulator or whateverthefuck if that existed the israelis will have it and use it in palestine
and the americans wouln’t do shit with it, bad warriors never have good weapons
discombulator my ass. top generals in the venezuelan army sold out maduro. their betrayal is called, as an excuse, “discombulator” to hide the truth. why haven’t they used it in ukraine. it’s a bunch of pedo-trump bs.
discombobulate is a humorous verb. he’s using it correctly its to confuse bewilder disorientated.
meanwhile in the real world, real drug dealers are the cia and the drug trade continues into the failing society in ussa
i think adolf trump used a fabulator, the beliefs that zeros have value. have they start to execute the traitors with this belief in venezuela yet ? what a loud of crap this article is. helicopters flying in a city, and not shoot down. it must have be some form of alien technology, like in 9/11 😂
