Elmo's X account posted antisemitic and racist posts after it was hacked on Sunday, a spokesperson for the makers of "Sesame Street" said in a statement.

After the beloved character’s X account was hacked, Jon Stewart decided to have some fun with a look-alike puppet of Elmo on “The Daily Show ” on Monday. The talk show host reminded the audience with a photo that he had worked with the famed muppet years ago and said he was “shocked” by the tweets.

Elmo, the beloved fuzzy red resident of Sesame Street, is back on social media after the character’s X account was hacked by an “outside party” that posted antisemitic rantings and amplified conspiracy theories.
