Over the weekend, the official, verified X account for the beloved Sesame Street character, with about 650,000 followers, began posting antisemitic material, as well as offensive posts related to Jeffrey Epstein and President Donald Trump.
Sesame Workshop worked to regain full control over its Elmo account on the X platform Monday after a hacker gained access and posted a string of racist and antisemitic messages.
The official Elmo Twitter account appears hacked, demanding Trump release Epstein files and posting anti-Semitic remarks. The internet debates if it’s a breach or hoax as the puppet faces a political storm.
