"Elmo's X account was briefly compromised yesterday by an unknown hacker who posted disgusting messages, including antisemitic and racist posts. The account has since been secured," a spokesperson for Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, said in a statement to ABC News on Monday.

The iconic kids' entertainment character's social media also declared in a since-deleted post that Donald Trump is in the Epstein Files.

The account of the 3-year-old Sesame Street character turned hateful and certainly not suitable for kids. Here's what the hacked account said.

The popular X account for the “Sesame Street" character Elmo began posting controversial messages that were quickly deleted after going viral on Sunday.

Sesame Workshop is working to regain control of Elmo’s X account after a hacker posted racist and antisemitic messages.

Elmo, the Muppet character on the show Sesame Street, was trending on the internet on July 13 for posting controversial statements on X (formerly Twitter).

Kelly Krauskopf's X account disappeared after a viral re-circulation of her past comments about the Indiana Fever brand and Caitlin Clark's role.
