Cardi B has found herself at the centre of another political firestorm after a fiery on-stage warning about US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) triggered a sharp response from federal authorities — and prompted the rapper to bring up Jeffrey Epstein and his files in a social media clap back.
During the opening night of her 'Little Miss Drama Tour' on Wednesday, 11 February at the Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, California, the Grammy-winning artist paused her set toaddress the crowddirectly.

Cardi took a break between songs to address the crowd during the 'Act III' of her show, singing the late Tejano musician Selena Quintanilla's song 'Como La Flor.'
The rapper asked if there were any Mexicans or Guatemalans in the building and said a fiery warning towards ICE and their agents.
She said, 'B*tch, if ICE come in here, we gonna jump they asses. Bitch, I got some bear mace in the back. They ain't taking my fans, b*tch.'
These remarks from the 2019 Grammy Award winner for Best Rap Album during her concert have triggered a response from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
As long as she doesn’t drug and rob our agents, we’ll consider that an improvement over her past behavior.https://t.co/P9wqWk416L
They said on the X post: 'As long as she doesn't drug and rob our agents, we'll consider that an improvement over her past behavior.'
