Elmo’s X account was hacked on Sunday, causing the beloved “Sesame Street” character to appear to post expletive-filled antisemitic rants and anti-Trump statements.

The posts have since been deleted, but widely circulated screenshots show Elmo apparently calling for violence against Jews and calling for the release of files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.

“Elmo’s X account was compromised by an unknown hacker who posted disgusting messages, including antisemitic and racist posts,” a spokesperson for Sesame Workshop, the makers of “Sesame Street,” told CNN in a statement. “We are working to restore full control of the account.”

CNN has contacted X for comment.

The tirade was a jarring departure from Elmo’s usual upbeat, motivational posts and wholesome pictures with other “Sesame Street” characters or celebrities. Some of the posts even mimicked his habit of referring to himself in the third person.
