New York (AP) -- Conservative host Glenn Beck has been suspended by SiriusXM satellite radio for agreeing with an author who asked hypothetically "what patriot will step up" to remove Republican Donald Trump from office if he's elected president and oversteps his authority.

SiriusXM said Beck's program was suspended for this week and the company was "evaluating its place" in the lineup.
