10/22/2024
The rapper went live on IG from a hospital bed Monday, where she’d been laid up for a few days -- and despite being under the weather, she didn't hold back, venting, "Motherf***ers have taken s*** too f***ing far when you mess with my f***ing kids."

00:00
Cardi B, there are a couple of mysteries here.
00:02
One is, why is she in the hospital?
00:05
That's actually the lesser of the mysteries here,
00:07
at least as far as Cardi's concerned.
00:09
Obviously, she knows why she's in the hospital.
00:10
The bigger is, who made a particular phone call?
00:13
A phone call to Child Protective Services
00:17
that had the agency coming out to Cardi's house,
00:21
and she is livid.
00:23
Now, obviously, the reason she's livid
00:25
is there's nothing going on with her kids.
00:28
Her kids are not being abused.
00:30
But the call claimed that.
00:32
Claimed that the kids were being beaten
00:34
actively at that moment.
00:36
At that moment, at 11 o'clock at night,
00:38
I believe it was a Sunday night.
00:40
And so, CPS did its due diligence.
00:43
They came out to the house.
00:45
And you gotta realize that when CPS does this,
00:49
they have to see the kids.
00:50
And so, you're waking the kids up, alarming them.
00:54
Cardi's in the hospital, so that's a problem right there.
00:58
She is livid, livid.
01:01
I'm gonna sue Child Protective Services
01:03
for coming to my house at whatever time it comes.
01:08
And I'm also gonna sue the person that did this.
01:11
I'm gonna hire the best private investigator
01:13
in the whole country.
01:15
Because y'all take joking,
01:17
and y'all take a little too far.
01:21
Don't you ever in your life play with my kids?
01:25
My kids have never been touched.
01:27
Never got hit.
01:28
No matter how annoying they are, I never hit my kids.
01:31
Y'all going to die.
01:32
I'm going to beat the out of you.
01:36
I'm not calling the cops on you.
01:38
As soon as I know and retract that phone call,
01:41
I'm going to beat the out of you.
01:43
If you a man, my baby father's gonna beat the out of you.
01:48
Because you thought it was okay to mess with kids.
01:52
So, I just wanna say one thing.
01:54
Because when I was a reporter at CBS in Los Angeles,
01:57
I did 22 stories on the Department of Children
02:02
and Family Services.
02:04
And one of the things that we found,
02:08
and we made a big deal of this,
02:10
kids were dying because the social workers
02:13
weren't going out to the houses enough,
02:14
and there were budgetary issues and everything else.
02:16
So, I get Cardi's upset,
02:18
but CBS is doing its job when they go out.
02:22
The real issue is, who made the call?
02:24
Who made the call?
02:25
She's definitely not going to have any luck suing them.
02:27
Because like you said, they're just doing their job.
02:29
But the real scumbag here is whoever the person was
02:32
who made this call.
02:34
And I don't think, I mean, I know she said
02:36
she has a lot of money,
02:37
can probably hire the best private investigator
02:39
that money can buy.
02:40
I don't know if they're going to have any luck
02:43
because these calls have to come in anonymously.
02:45
So, I don't think she's ever going to-
02:46
So, that CBS can do their work.
02:48
She's never going to find out.
02:50
Because CBS, they want people to call in anonymously.
02:54
So, they're not going to give up the phone number.
02:56
So, it's a problem though.
02:58
The one good news is like you guys said,
02:59
she is in the hospital,
03:00
but clearly she's doing well enough
03:02
to hop on Instagram Live that this made her that angry,
03:05
but she's at least feeling up to that.
03:07
Like we said, we have no clue why she's in the hospital.
03:10
But I mean, this is a very similar
03:13
kind of like the swatting things we see
03:16
where people will swat homes.
03:19
But they did it with her kids essentially.
03:21
Usually they call and say that there's someone with a gun,
03:24
someone's being held hostage
03:25
and the cops send out, go out full force.
03:28
This obviously for Cardi is a lot more serious
03:32
because it is someone involving her kids.
03:36
I just, like you said, I get why she's upset,
03:39
but she's, I don't know.
03:42
She's not going to get the justice she's hoping for here.
03:44
Well, she's not,
03:45
but you can totally understand why she's upset.
03:48
And again, it's the,
03:50
I think there's an extra layer here
03:52
that she wasn't even at home to comfort the kids
03:56
when CPS shows up at 11 o'clock at night on a Sunday.
04:00
I mean, it is alarming for any kid,
04:03
for something like that to happen.
04:05
So I get it.
04:06
I totally get it.
04:07
Totally, very serious situation,
04:09
but in classic Cardi fashion,
04:10
she's like, no matter how annoying my kids are,
04:13
I've never beaten them.
04:14
It's like, good on Cardi.
04:16
Also, you probably, if you're,
04:17
if you are going to find this person,
04:20
you probably don't want to tell the world
04:21
that you're going to beat the hell out of them.
04:23
You've already signaled the attack.
04:26
And it gets you in a little,
04:27
it gets you in a little bit of trouble
04:29
when you've already kind of announced it.
04:31
Now you end up getting in trouble
04:32
if you do find the person, Cardi.
04:34
Not a good idea.
04:36
Hi, my name is Rayshawn.
04:37
I'm from Florida.
04:38
And I just want to say that I personally feel like
04:41
Cardi B is definitely a great mother.
04:42
Like I can tell that she's definitely the type of mother
04:45
to do the utmost for her children.
04:47
You know what I mean?
04:48
So I feel like she was just speaking from a place of hurt.
04:51
And I know that she's not going to really like
04:53
do anything to harm anybody else,
04:55
but I hope she gets the justice
04:56
that she deserves for her family.
04:58
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
04:59
The only reason she's not going to
05:01
is because she's not going to find the person.
05:02
Yeah, if she found the person,
05:04
do you think she, oh, kumbaya, really?
05:07
I don't think she will kumbaya,
05:09
but I feel like she would definitely press charges,
05:11
for sure, for sure.
05:13
Well, okay.
05:14
After she beats him.
05:15
Yeah.
