YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS! CRUZ SUPPORTERS ATTEMPT COUP AT EAGLE FORUM!
Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly has been a national leader of the conservative movement since the publication of her best-selling 1964 book, A Choice Not An Echo. She has been a leader of the pro-family movement since 1972 when she led the fight to defeat the Equal Rights Amendment.
Phyllis Schlafly is 91 years-old.
On March 11, 2016 conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly endorsed Donald Trump for President at his St. Louis rally.
But not everyone in her organization, Eagle Forum – or her family – agreed with Phyllis Schlafly’s decision.
Last week Phyllis Schlafly released several board members for disloyalty to the organization. The group was planning to hold rogue board meeting to take over the Eagle Forum.
Today the rogue Cruz supporters attempted a coup.
They held a non-sanctioned meeting and blocked Phyllis Schlafly from their conference call.
This email was sent out Monday afternoon.
St. Louis, Missouri:
“At 2pm today, 6 directors of Eagle Forum met in an improper, unprecedented telephone meeting. I objected to the meeting and at 2:11pm, I was muted from the call. The meeting was invalid under the Bylaws but the attendees purported to pass several motions to wrest control of the organization from me. They are attempting to seize access to our bank accounts, to terminate employees, and to install members of their own Gang of 6 to control the bank accounts and all of Eagle Forum.
“The members of their group are: Eunie Smith of Alabama, Anne Cori of Missouri, Cathie Adams of Texas, Rosina Kovar of Colorado, Shirley Curry of Tennessee, and Carolyn McLarty of Oklahoma.
“This kind of conduct will not stand and I will fight for Eagle Forum and I ask all men and women of good will to join me in this fight.”
This is a developing story—-
“says the queen of “mean spirited and nasty.”

...says the wicked of “mean spirited and nasty.”
I think it's fair considering you're one of the nastiest pieces of work on the forum. But like all Cruzers, you will play the victim when called out for your bad behavior.
False dilemma
Trump is the Republican front runner
Bernie Sanders is a Marxist wannabe democrat
Brings to mind the snowflakes who are shocked...SHOCKED!!! to see Trump chalkings on campus.
It's not who we are...
Sad that her own daughter is part of the offensive against her. That she endorsed Trump should be allowed as her personal opinion, but like many Cruzers here on FR if you don’t support him you must be destroyed.
Those were tactics that Dems used to be known for. I have said many times here that I think most of us love our country but see candidates in different regard. I think I may have been wrong when Trump supporters must be destroyed not allowed freedom of choice that is no longer love of country.
I can see why no one likes cruz who knows him now
You make it clear that to you personally, rules are for other people.
Other people think that all members of any organization (including leadership) has to operate within the bylaws.
This facet of your worldview has always been crystal clear in your Free Republic postings.
what was “unlawful” about Phyllis Schlafly’s endorsement of the Republican front runner?
Maybe the rest of the board didn’t agree.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting. What does Ted, I’m from the government and I’m here to help, Cruz say about this?
Teddy Bears ALERT!

WWHRC do? Feel the Bern BUMP!
“Today the rogue Cruz supporters attempted a coup.”
Kinda a bit over the top editorializing, no?
“Phyllis Schlafly is 91 years-old.”
Appeal to emotion? A “gang of 6” stealing an organization from a frail old woman?
so what’s new ???
this is not a surprise...
But Schlafly would never endorse Sanders, not in ten thousand years. What’s your point?
Cruz people are so stupid they don't know that those same polls claim Cruz's unfavorables are only a few points better than Trump's.
Trump is a serial fornicator who claims to be a Great Christian but has never once repented of any of his sins.
Wanna play this game for the next 200 posts?
Well the article said so. But, if they had convened a properly noticed meeting of the board of directors, their would have been minutes of the meeting and we - or at least the membership of the organization - would know the truth of the matter.
If she cited which by laws they are not acting by, I would be better able to follow her argument. Is it a seven-member board with all members present and participating for the first 11 minutes of the conference call until Phyllis is muted, or is it a 13 member board with 7 members initially present, or is it a 25 member board? How is quorum defined?
It is not sufficient for a disgruntled board member, even if the founder, (and I respect Schlafly greatly), to make a charge to make the charge true.
I, at least, don’t have enough information to conclude anything, with the possible exception of concluding that many people jump to conclusions on the basis of insufficient information.
One thing Ted is good at...
Destruction
He will end the Republican party in addition to the Eagle Forum.
He will lose the general election if he is chosen the nominee.
And when he has destroyed the nation’s last chance, he will have destroyed it too.
Luckily, with a globalist wife, he’ll still have a future. The rest of us won’t.
The meeting was invalid under the Bylaws

Cruz Jr is invalid under the Constitution that that hasn’t stopped him...
People who stage coups generally disagree about something but staging coups is not usually part of the bylaws
and you are sane while you think the majority of people who don’t have your view are insane.
LOL yea OK
ponder this who is insane then
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Voting for yet another ivy league lawyer who became an elected official who has not even finished his first term is insanity,
maybe you need to look in the mirror.
