Phyllis Schlafly Releases Video After Attempted Coup by Cruz Supporters: “I’m Still in Charge”
Gateway Pundit ^ | April 19, 2016 | Jim Hoft

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.

Two weeks ago 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.

Last week the rogue Cruz supporters attempted a coup at Eagle Forum. They held a non-sanctioned meeting and reportedly blocked Phyllis Schlafly from their conference call.

Today Phyllis released a video to the Eagle Forum. She’s still in charge.

“There seems to be a lot of confusion on what is going on in the ranks. I understand it was said that I was there but I only piped into the meeting to say I objected to the validity to what it’s doing. And I don’t. I’m still in charge.”

The Cruz supporters argued that Phyllis is senile and not in charge of Eagle Forum.

In the Nazi era, undesirables would be treated as non-persons. Their contributions to society would be demeaned. People participating in this effort would say things like “I have no idea what she did. “

Perhaps this is what our friend is attempting here.

Wow, lots of nasty comments today. I’m 60 years old. I don’t know who she is. Apparently everyone else here discusses her everyday.

I’ve noticed a lot of nasty banter going on here this year. Quite a lot of unrest I would say. So it goes.

Is she somebody we are supposed to know and pay attention to? I don’t know who she is nor did I get the memo.

"Nasty comments"? It's a conservative site. Conservatives believe in self-sufficiency. A quick Google search, as opposed to your non-stop badgering of people on this thread about your ignorance, would have saved yourself a great deal of grief. Instead, you come across as a helpless snowflake - hardly the behavior of a self-professed conservative.

Confirms my theory that age does not guarantee maturity.

I think this is over money. When Phyllis endorsed Trump, funding to the group started drying up thus the board members got worried
