Now Unable to Communicate with Create2 and Getting repeated Bat: messages via the serial port

After hooking up my Raspberry Pi4 to the Create2 for the second time, I am now unable to communicate with the Create2. When I open minicom on the pi I see the following messages repeated on the screen. I tried resetting the Create 2 and got the messages again. Has anyone seen something like this??
