The rogue tweets were removed late Thursday morning.

“The New York Post has been hacked. We are currently investigating the cause,” a message on the tabloid’s account said.

“The New York Post’s investigation indicates that the unauthorized conduct was committed by an employee,” the Post said in a statement to AFP, adding that the worker in question had been fired.

The tweets, published Thursday morning, included a call for the assassination of Biden, along with a demand to kill New York lawmaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
