New York Liberty player Natasha Cloud unleashed a torrent of racially-charged posts on X Friday after the identity of the suspected assassination of Charlie Kirk was revealed in Utah.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox confirmed Friday that law enforcement arrested the suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.

Cloud deleted an X post that prompted backlash, in which she made presumptions about the alleged killer's family's political beliefs.

"So how y'all gone twist this? Raised in a good middle class family, dad was an officer/church leader, whole family of Republicans and gun owners [and] Trump supporters," Cloud said in the deleted post. 

Cloud left several other controversial posts remaining on her feed. One post made the unsubstantiated assertion that Robinson was a "far-right Republican." 

"Tyler Robinson and his parents were Republicans. FAR RIGHT REPUBLICANS," Cloud wrote. 

Cloud also left a post on her feed that contained a racially-charged comment about Robinson and connected the assassination to recent threats against historically Black colleges and universities. The FBI, in a statement Thursday, said it is "aware of hoax threat calls" to HBCUs. 

"So why were y'all threatening HBCU’s when it was a 22-year-old white boy from Utah who shot Charlie? Racism. Not politics. Racism. Difference in policy is you giving tax cuts to billionaires. Y'all dumb but I digress. Your hatred for other people is not politics," Cloud wrote.
