Thanks for the :-) or I might have taken offense.

I’m actually still up in Canada (though born and raised in the U.S.), and tentatively planning on staying up here, so I have less in this fight than most of the people on the forum.

I personally wouldn’t have stuck this one in breaking, as it seems a good way to transfer internal division in an organization to this message board.

If Schlafly has attempted to unilaterally punt members from the board, which sounds illegal to me, and some of the remaining board members have entered “unprecedented” though not necessarily illegal, procedural waters in response. It looks to me like EF is in a mess and some threads on FR are following it.

I think it was a simple attempt at a power and money grab. Go look at the website Eagle Forum. It is as dedicated to only Schlafly, no one else. It is her the same way Ann Coulter’s site is only all Ann.

It is the GOP and Cruz people trying to IMO steal it because they want to control their own narrative in the future. Plus the money in the bank might be substantial.

I'm sure the way she set up the organization allows for her to control the whole board until her passing. The reason for a board is more for when she is gone. Many then choose the direction of that money mostly and you probably end up with a ghost archive that sells subscriptions to her past articles and videos.
No one else cares about stuff like the original creator of their brand or stuff.

I would worry about her regarding who to trust after this.

Here in the USA the Trump issue has uncovered lots of disappointment for conservatives who all invested already maybe decades in Rush Limbaugh or Mark Levin. Trump had partially destroyed their brand as well because of their seeming connection to the GOPe and win-at-all-cost tactics approval.

Cruz will flame. We get 50 years of a Liberal Supreme Court that will leave Canada looking conservative.

Good luck with your Muslim population I've run into while visiting Canada. They are on you dole declaring they will take over control of Canada by the womb without a fight. Good luck with that! :-)

This is what happens when your organization doesn't establish a clear hierarchy for executing the zot.
