A firefighter in New York City called out a pro-Palestinian agitator wearing an Elmo costume with a Palestinian flag as “anti-American” Friday, not far from where the city’s 9/11 memorial ceremony was taking place at Ground Zero, according to video shot by Turning Point USA (TPUSA) and posted to X.
“F—— anti-American motherf—–. Go back to f—— Palestine. We don’t want you here,” the man yelled to the protester. It was unclear if he was a current or retired firefighter.
The man told the protester to also take former President Barack Obama, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Gov. Kathy Hochul and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with them.

“Take ‘em all. They’re all no f—–g good!” he yelled. “You’re no f—–g good.”
After the firefighter walked away from the agitator, someone yelled in the video, “The Jews are committing a genocide.”
It wasn’t clear if it was one of the protesters who yelled it.
“Frustration from Americans attending the 9/11 memorial service a few blocks away is spilling over,” TPUSA’s X post said.

The FDNY told Fox News Digital: “We are aware of the video circulating of someone wearing a uniform having a verbal altercation today. This person appears to be from another fire department and is not and has never been a member of the FDNY.”
