The earlier article about a day ago tells how Phyllis removed the President and she and the board installed people including her daughter. Look at the names as they correspond to some in todays phone call that is claimed to be improper insurgents but are her board members she installed two days ago.
First article:
Eagle Forum Press Release
The Board of Eagle Forum, a 501(c)(4) corporation, held a Board meeting in accordance with and pursuant to the Eagle Forum By-Laws and Illinois State Law at 2 pm CDT on April 11, 2016.
Pursuant to the By-Laws, Eagle Forum First Vice President, Eunie Smith, presided over the meeting. Eagle Forum Founder, Mrs. Phyllis Schlafly, the Chairman of the Board, was present during the entire meeting, including expressing herself on all seven votes. In Schlafly’s opening statement she said she has spent her life building Eagle Forum as a unique organization of volunteers. She also said that paid staff cannot order volunteers around. Mrs. Smith said, “The purpose of the meeting was to ensure that Eagle Forum will continue long into the future as a viable force for all the causes we have addressed in the past, for God, family and country.”
The Board of Eagle Forum voted to remove Mr. Ed Martin as President of the corporation; effective immediately. Mrs. Eunie Smith is serving as President until a new President is elected pursuant to the Eagle Forum By-Laws. Mrs. Smith appointed Eagle Forum Board Vice Chairman, Anne Schlafly Cori, daughter of Phyllis Schlafly, as Executive Director of Eagle Forum. Anne Schlafly Cori has worked with our state organizations and worked alongside Phyllis for some time.
Anne Schlafly Cori said, “I am honored and excited to be working with our wonderful state volunteer leaders from across the country. We are continuing the incredible legacy of our Founder Phyllis Schlafly.”
Dr. Shirley Curry was directed to lead a Search Committee for a new president of Eagle Forum.
END
Now her daughter Ann Cori is propertied to be part of this phone call like the VP Phyllis put in charge. This is not what it seems. Doesn’t anyone read these posts with a discerning eye or a spirit of inquiry anymore? Is it all just one big clown car demolition derby here now?
Yes. Trump's fault.
Thank you.
You have your facts mixed up. For the time being, I will presume this to be innocent mistake.
The looks like a battle within Eagle Forum where they should have agreed not to endorse anyone as an organization and get through the primary by agreeing to their general principles.
Phyllis Schafly apparently asked the whole Board (including her daughter) to resign and this looks like it has escalated further.
Thank you for one of the few useful posts on this thread.
This article contradicts your assertion that "The earlier article about a day ago tells how Phyllis removed the President and she and the board installed people including her daughter." A couple days ago (Sunday), Phyllis was installing her daughter.

Members of the board said in a statement that they ousted Martin in Monday's meeting, specifying no reason.
That contradicts your assertion that Schlafley removed Ed Martin.
April 11 Facebook post represented as Schlafley (Slyfox asserts this facebook post was made by Ed Martin)
"At 2:00 pm 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 amounts to an assertion that Phyllis installed some people on the board, and two days later fired them. That doesn't square at all with what the news reports say, and from my point of view, looks like fabrication, by you, out of thin air. And it is a pretty nasty claim to make, I think you will agree, that a person has flipped their lid the way you describe, if they didn't in fact, act as you assert.
-- Slyfox should comment to help us all out. --
I have Slyfox in the special box where 100% of what it posts is presumed false. I will accept contentions from that poster, only with evidence.
Close but not quite accurate. First, Phyllis asked her daughter and five others to resign. They refused. Then, they held a board meeting to remove the current president. Phyllis participated in the conference call.
This is mostly a family civil war between Phyllis and her daughter. Pretty much the entire board believes Phyllis was manipulated by Donald Trump due to her age and her lack of interaction with the grassroots.
