Did SiriusXM Fire Mark Thompson Out The Cannon?

SiriusXM hosts Mark Thompson and Joe Madison. SiriusXM may have parted ways with Thompson after an altercation with a Black extremist.

I am angry that a favorite among progressives is off the satellite dial.

Mark Thompson (Matsimela Mapfumo) was placed on leave after a video surfaced last month. He got into a heated confrontation with a Black extremist and served the guy a knuckle style chili.

Thompson, Rev. Al Sharpton, Van Jones, Joy Reid, Mark Lamont Hill, Sonny Hostin and Joe Madison have faced a group of Trump supporting coonservatives who ambush them.

They call them "sell outs" for supporting Democrats and progressive causes. They believe they betray the Black experience.

Rapper/activist Talib Kweli wrote about this last month and I have decided to take account to what happened. I got off work this morning and I usually enjoy listening to Make It Plain, which is on SiriusXM Progress between 6am to 9am. Rev. Thompson offers honest takes on civil rights, progressive activism and motivational speaking. He is a staunch critic of Donald J. Trump, Mitch McConnell and Fox News.

Thompson was constantly harassed by this group called ADOS (American Descendants of Slaves).

Thompson is a vocal supporter of reparations of Black slaves who came to the United States on promises of land and opportunities.

Yvette Carnell, the founder of ADOS and her followers became a strong supporters of Trump and his pro-Amerikkkan beliefs.

While on a speaking tour, Thompson was confronted by Africa The Great. This Trojan horse decided to belittle Thompson on his remarks about poor Blacks.

"The stuff you say and other people say don't really explain me or my life. I'm a poor Black man from the inner city and I don't care about Russia ... I care that my kids' education is horrible... there are no jobs... I got a felony so I can't really get a job. These are the things I care about."

After a few remarks agreeing with this Trojan, Thompson tries to walk away. The guy decides to follow him and then calls him a coon and a sellout. That's when Thompson serves him.

Then of course, the Trojan went right to social media to post it and SiriusXM decided to put the brakes on Thompson and Make It Plain.

Now we don't know if he's been fired out the cannon or iced. But from the last few weeks of guest host and today's episode of a repeat of Saturday's programming, me thinks it's the end of the road for Make It Plain.

Do you believe that SiriusXM had a right to let Mark Thompson go or was it a mistake?

He wasn't working on behalf of the company. He was doing an event as a guest.
