Popular rapper, Cardi B is well known for her confidence and ability to speak her mind. On November 18, she continues to prove that as she took to Instagram live to discuss politics. In her statements, she criticized Biden for prioritizing foreign nations, like sending military aid to Israel and Ukraine, above financially assisting the U.S.

According to Fader, back in 2020, Cardi B was in full support for President Biden, although recent events have led the rapper to question his leadership. That is, Cardi B focused on how the United States is looking at overwhelmingly negative situations, especially in NYC. In her perspective, she reemphasizes how domestic issues should be of top priority for the president, especially considering the negative implications that the budget cuts in NYC will have. 

Cardi B took the opportunity on her Instagram live to admit she is lucky and shows gratitude for what she has. However, she also questions the future of her nieces, nephews and the lives of everyday citizens in NYC.  Cardi B infers that the budget cut will negatively impact schools, sanitations, libraries, police stations and more. She fears that in consequence to the budget cut, the city will be infested with rats and be extremely dirty for the people that reside in NYC. In her message, Cardi B urges people to pay attention to what is happening domestically, and also shows frustration for what she feels is being ignored by the president and government as a whole.
