The United States Department of Homeland Security slammed Cardi B in a tweet today, prompting a fiery response.

Cardi B is one femcee who is never afraid to speak her mind, regardless of whatever backlash she may receive for it. Recently, for example, she kicked off her highly anticipated "Little Miss Drama" tour with a performance in Palm Desert at the Acrisure Arena. At one point in the show, she asked if there were any Guatemalans or Mexicans in the crowd.

"B*tch, if ICE come in here we’re gonna jump their a**es," she then declared. "B*tch, I’ve got some bear mace in the back. They ain’t taking my fans, b*tch!” Cardi proceeded to jump into a performance of her hit featuring Bad Bunny and J. Balvin, "I Like It."

Unfortunately, the playful moment quickly caught the attention of the United States Department of Homeland Security. The government agency responded in a tweet on its official Twitter/X account today, and didn't hold back. "As long as she doesn’t drug and rob our agents, we’ll consider that an improvement over her past behavior," the tweet reads.

Of course, Cardi wasn't about to let this slide, quickly firing back in a tweet of her own.

"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?" she asked. Cardi obviously isn't dodging any smoke, and fans can't blame her.

Cardi didn't only shade ICE agents during her first "Little Miss Drama" tour stop, however. She also threw a jab at BIA, with whom she's been at odds for months. She did so with a new mute challenge, where fans are to remain silent after Cardi says to name five BIA songs in her track, "Pretty & Petty."

"Name five BIA songs, gun pointin' to your head / Bow, I'm dead / That melatonin flow puttin' us to bed / I'm doing you a favor, Epic, run me my bread," she raps. At the time of writing, BIA has not publicly responded to the shade.
