Cardi B takes reveals massive fortune she spends on her kids that includes $10K a month on a DRIVER

Daily Mail​2 days ago

Cardi B delved into her family's over-the-top finances and made a dig at her estranged husband Offset in a furious social media stream over the weekend.
The 32-year-old rapper, who shares three children with the Migos artist — Kulture, six, Wave, three, and Blossom, eight months — said that the rapper has not pitched in a penny for the kids since their split.
'A whole year straight, you have left me with the kids' bills,' Cardi B said on X Spaces. 'Y'all want to know what's the kids' bills? Start adding.
'My kids got their own driver — they pick them up from school, they drop them off and they take them to gymnastics and boxing classes. The kids' driver is on a retainer for $10,000 a month.'
The Girls Like You rapper — who has gone Instagram official in her romance with stalwart NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs — audited the expensive tuitions she is footing the bill for, claiming Offset didn't help with any of it.

'Kulture's school this year — you didn't pay for it — that's $45,000,' said Cardi B. 'Wave's school a year is $35,000, which you didn't help me pay for it this year at all.'
The hip-hop mainstay, whose full name is Belcalis Almánzar, added she pays a relative $3,000 weekly to babysit, and a nanny for their baby Blossom charges a daily fee of $500.
Cardi B listed a series of ancillary charges she's eaten in the near-year since their bitter breakup.
'Kulture and Wave get tutoring four times a week. Each hour is $250. Count that up,' she said. 'Kulture's piano class, that's $300 an hour and she gets piano classes three times a week.
'I'm not sure how much is gymnastics and Wave's boxing classes, but I pay that too,' she added.
The I Like It performer also was critical of Offset for seeking spousal support in the split, again itemizing expenses she's paid for without his assistance.
'Kiari, have I asked you for anything?' the Bodak Yellow vocalist said. 'You want spousal support so bad. And mind you, this is not even including food - my kids have a personal chef that comes from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. that I pay for because people in my house don't have time to cook.'
Cardi also said that Offset has 'seen Blossom only like five times' since her birth last fall.
She added, 'I been trying to save your face. I said you can see my kids in my house. I want my daughter to feel the love of her dad. He hasn't seen his kids since March.'
Cardi B filed for divorce from the musical artist in July of 2024, and petitioned the court for full custody of their three kids. She and Offset initially wed in 2017 and had previously filed for divorce in 2020, but eventually called it off.
Diggs shared an image of himself in the uniform of his new team, the New England Patriots, amid speculation his mounting controversies could cause a distraction to the team ahead of training camp, endangering his roster spot.
Diggs has been a mainstay in the NFL for 10 seasons, playing his first five seasons with the Minnesota Vikings before playing for the Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans in the years since.

White House threatens to pull billions of dollars from California's high-speed rail project

California's years-long effort to construct a high-speed rail faces yet another hurdle as the Trump administration said the project has no 'viable path' to move ahead and threatened to pull billions of dollars in federal funding. Sean Duffy, the US transportation secretary, released a compliance review report that said the project is in default of the terms of its federal grant awards, and said it has been beset by mismanagement, waste and ever-growing costs. 'Here's the cold, hard truth – there's no viable path to complete the rail project on time or on budget. California is on notice,' Duffy said, adding that 'it could soon be time' for funds to move to other projects. High-speed rail, long available in Japan and Europe, has been a dream for decades in California with supporters hopeful it could reduce the environmental impact in a state known for its rampant car use, connect the state and drive economic development with the creation of thousands of jobs. In 2008, California voters approved $10bn in funding for the bullet train, which was supposed to bring passengers from San Francisco to Los Angeles in less than three hours and be completed by 2020 at a total cost of $33bn. Seventeen years on, the project's estimated cost is expected to exceed $100bn. The state has now focused not on the original route designed to connect California's metropolitan areas, but on a 171-mile stretch in the Central valley, which is expected to be completed by 2033 at a cost of more than $35bn. The entirety of the line received environmental clearance for construction in 2024 and the project finally began laying down track this year. Frustrations over the delays and growing costs have mounted. In 2019, Donald Trump cancelled almost $1bn in funding for the project. The Biden administration, however, restored that funding and later allocated another $3.3bn toward the project. But California is still expected to come up with most of the budget, and it has so far. The state has supplied 82% of the $14bn already spent on the project. 'No state in America is closer to launching high-speed rail than California,' Gavin Newsom, the state's governor, said earlier this year. 'We're moving into the track-laying phase, completing structures for key segments and laying the groundwork for a high-speed rail network.' But in the report published on Wednesday, Drew Feeley, the acting administrator of the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), said the state has 'no viable plan to deliver even that partial segment on time'. 'What started as a proposed 800-mile system was first reduced to 500 miles, then became a 171-mile segment, and is now very likely ended as a 119-mile track to nowhere,' Feeley wrote. His letter said the review 'revealed patterns of unattainable proposals and unrealistic assumptions on a wide range of issues' as well as 'countless change orders for almost every contract', and cited a February 2025 report from the rail authority's inspector general that found the agency has 'no credible plan' to close the $7bn funding gap on the Central valley segment. The California high-speed rail authority has 30 days to provide documentation to show its compliance. The authority said in a statement on Wednesday that it strongly disagrees with the FRA's 'misguided' conclusions, and pointed to the governor's latest budget proposal, which includes at least $1bn a year for the project for the next 20 years. 'We remain firmly committed to completing the nation's first true high-speed rail system connecting the major population centers in the state.'

Trump names nominees to take over commands in the Middle East and Africa

President Donald Trump is nominating Vice Adm. Brad Cooper to take over as the top U.S. military commander in the Middle East, the Pentagon said Wednesday. If he is confirmed, it would mark just the second time that a Navy admiral has held the job. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said in a statement that Trump also is nominating Air Force Lt. Gen. Dagvin Anderson to head U.S. Africa Command. Anderson would be the first Air Force general to lead the command, which was created in 2007. Cooper is currently deputy commander of U.S. Central Command and has extensive experience serving and leading troops in the Middle East. The current head of the command, Army Gen. Erik Kurilla, is slated to retire after more than three years in the post. It is a crucial role as the region has been shaken by conflict, with the Trump administration pushing to broker a ceasefire deal after 20 months of war in Gaza and pressing for an agreement with Iran in negotiations over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program. A 1989 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, Cooper commanded naval forces in the Middle East for close to three years as the head of the Navy's 5th Fleet in Bahrain. He left in February 2024 to take over as deputy at Central Command, which oversees U.S. military operations in the Middle East and is based in Tampa. Army and Marine generals have largely held the Middle East job since it was created in 1983. And two of the recent leaders — former Army Gen. Lloyd Austin and former Marine Gen. Jim Mattis, went on to serve as defense secretary. Central Command covers 21 countries across central and south Asia and northeast Africa and has overseen the conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel, Syria and Yemen. The only Navy officer to ever lead Central Command was Adm. William Fallon, who resigned after a year and retired. At the time, Fallon said he was stepping down due to press reports that suggested he was opposed to then-President George W. Bush's Iran policies. He said the reports were wrong but the perception had become a distraction. Cooper is a surface warfare officer and served on guided-missile cruisers, destroyers, aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships. He commanded a destroyer and a cruiser. During his time leading the 5th Fleet, Cooper set up the Navy's first unmanned and artificial intelligence task force, and he led naval operations against the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen. He also oversaw the Navy's role in Operation Prosperity Guardian, the U.S.-led coalition created in late 2023 to counter Houthi attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea. He previously served as commander of Naval Surface Force Atlantic and commander of U.S. Naval Forces Korea. Cooper is the son of a career Army officer and got his master's degree in strategic intelligence from the National Intelligence University. Anderson, nominated to lead operations in Africa, is a pilot who has flown the KC-135 tanker, the C-130 transport aircraft and the U-28A surveillance aircraft used largely by special operations forces. He has flown more than 3,400 flight hours, including 738 in combat. He is currently serving as the director of joint force development on the Joint Staff. According to the Air Force, he commanded a special operations squadron, an expeditionary squadron, an operations group and a special operations wing. He also led the task force that coordinated the repositioning of U.S. forces from Somalia and headed Special Operations Command, Africa, from 2019 to 2021. Africa Command is the newest of the Pentagon's geographic commands and covers the bulk of the African continent. Much of the U.S. military's efforts there have focused on combatting extremist groups and training local forces. Anderson would be the seventh general to head Africa Command. To date, four of the previous leaders were Army generals and two were Marines. Anderson is from Ypsilanti, Michigan, and graduated from the ROTC program at Washington University in St. Louis.

French brandy and liqueur-maker Remy Cointreau axes sales targets as Trump tariffs bite

The maker of Remy Martin cognac and Cointreau liqueur has become the latest global drinks company to abandon its sales targets in the face of the trade war declared by US president Donald Trump. Paris-listed Remy Cointreau, which has teamed up with The White Lotus actress Aubrey Plaza to promote one of its brands, said that the 2030 goals that it had set out in 2020 were no longer realistic. It blamed tariffs as well as persistently slow US sales. However, the company's shares climbed 4 per cent as it said the worst has passed in terms of sluggish sales. 'We believe this difficult phase is now behind us,' said chief executive Eric Vallat. Its rivals, including Diageo and Pernod Ricard, have also withdrawn their sales targets as the sector endures a sharp slowdown from previous boom years for pricey liquors. But Remy, which makes 70 per cent of its sales from cognac, mostly in the US and China, has suffered more than peers as drinkers in both nations ditch the brandy and both governments have levied tariffs.
