Cardi B Strikes Back at DHS Over ICE Remarks on Tour
Cardi B has recently entered a social media feud with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regarding immigration enforcement by ICE. This conflict erupted during her Little Miss Drama Tour, which kicked off in Palm Desert, California.
Cardi B’s Strong Statements Against ICE
During her performance, the rapper made a provocative statement, indicating her readiness to stand up against ICE agents if they attempted to disrupt her concert or apprehend fans. “B–h, if ICE comes in here, we’re going to jump their a–es,” she declared after performing part of “Como La Flor” by Selena Quintanilla. Cardi B further emphasized, “I got some bear mace in the back. They ain’t taking my fans b–h, let’s go!”
Response from DHS
This bold statement from Cardi B quickly went viral, prompting a response from DHS via social media. The department commented on a post from TMZ, stating, “As long as she doesn’t drug and rob our agents, we’ll consider that an improvement over her past behavior.”
Cardi B’s Rebuttal and Broader Issues
In response to their remarks, Cardi B addressed the DHS directly. She suggested that the department focus on serious issues concerning drug abuse, referencing the Epstein case and its implications. She posted on X: “If we talking about drugs let’s talk about Epstein and friends drugging underage girls to rape them. Why yall don’t wanna talk about the Epstein files?”
Political Context and Support

The DHS has faced significant criticism for its immigration policies. Numerous protests have erupted across the United States due to the administration’s actions, especially following incidents where federal agents fatally shot two U.S. citizens in January.
