SOME good news about Texas.

[Scrivener7]

Apparently there are groups flooding the tip line and making it useless. Tens of thousands of people are reporting Abbott himself, and there are bots filling up the reporting media with tens of thousands of texts and calls etc per hour.

No link. I heard it from a relative who is part of the effort.

1. Please don't post any links or phone #s

n/t

[Scrivener7]

2. What?? I didn't. Why are you saying that?

[BComplex]

10. Because that person...and maybe others...would like links and phone#'s?

duh?

[Scrivener7]

13. Oh. Sorry. Lost 2 family members today. The brain is not at its best.

But I don't know the contact info.

It was just the only good news I had to report.

[BComplex]

14. OMG!! So sorry Scrivener7!

That's so sad! What a terrible day! I'm really sorry for your loss.

[Scrivener7]

16. Thank you.

You know what, though? It's nice to go to DU and talk about other stuff.

[FailureToCommunicate]

17. So so sorry to hear of your awful news.

There is so much grief swirling around, it hard to grab hold of a solid point to self rescue.

May you find something soon...

[Scrivener7]

26. Thank you.

[ancianita]

I'm sorry for your heavy loss, and agree that this place can be a comfort.

3. I was going to say: there's half a continent between me and Texas.

But this is good news, too...

[LeftInTX]

5. It's not good news, because it isn't a real tipline....

It's designed to attract web traffic to Texas Right to Life's website......

[Scrivener7]

7. The point is that they're jamming all the reporting venues.

[LeftInTX]

11. James O'Keefe will know exactly what to do....

So will TRTL volunteers.....These people all work together......

[Scrivener7]

12. You mean James OKeefe, super genius?

[LeftInTX]

15. He embedded himself just recently in October down here.

He got this woman arrested and charged

https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2021/01/13/rachel-rodriguez-arrested-alleged-election-fraud-illegal-voting-texas/

SAN ANTONIO, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) – A woman has been arrested in connection to alleged election fraud and illegal voting, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced Wednesday.

According to Paxton, Rachel Rodriguez of San Antonio was “exposed in a Project Veritas video” ahead of the 2020 election regarding vote harvesting and acknowledged what she was doing was illegal.


Rodriguez is accused of election fraud, illegal voting, unlawfully assisting people voting by mail and unlawfully possessing an official ballot, according to Paxton. She could face up to 20 years in prison if she is convicted.

Raquel Rodriguez was arrested on Jan. 13 and charged with four felonies, including election fraud and illegal voting, by the state attorney general's office. She was released from the Kendall County Jail, northwest of San Antonio, the following day on bonds totaling $60,000.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's office began investigating Rodriguez after Project Veritas, a conservative activist group, released a heavily edited video purporting to show her helping an elderly woman fill out her ballot and discussing unlawful voter influence tactics.

4. The tipline is through Texas Right to Life....

It's not through the state

There is a volunteer intake for TRTL on their website and it is heavily vetted. I tried putting in a fake name at a real address and it rejected it. Obviously the TRTL website is able to check voter registration before allowing any volunteer connection....

The real people who will be filing lawsuits will be James O'Keefe and that guy who filmed Planned Parenthood. They have dirty tricksters who are already embedded with all sorts of left leaning groups.

That tip line from TRTL is BS.......Probably they figure they will get web traffic and can fund raise off of it....

Sure you can report Abbott and it's all in good fun, but it is not "good news".....

8. It was flooded with cartoon porn before the law went into effect

This anti-abortion whistleblowing site is being flooded with Shrek porn
Others have shared tips on how to disrupt the anonymous tip-off site run by supporters of Texas’ abortion ban

If you thought that Shrek was just a swamp-dwelling hypebeast, then think again. As of this week, pro-choice advocates have also adopted NSFW clips of the animated ogre to troll an anti-abortion whistleblowing website in Texas, in scenes that are being compared to TikTok’s longstanding feud with Donald Trump.

Admittedly, that sentence is a lot to take in, so first some background. Starting on September 1 this year, Texas is set to enact a near-total abortion ban, after the state’s so-called “heartbeat bill” was signed into law by the governor, Greg Abbott, back in May. The law makes very few exceptions, including for pregnancy by non-consensual sex, and will prohibit women from seeking abortions after six weeks.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Despite widespread criticism and lawsuits from abortion rights activists, supporters of the ban have been preparing for it to come into effect, inviting people to turn in those they suspect of breaching the law via an anonymous form. Hosted on prolifewhistleblower.com, the tip line encourages users to “help enforce the Texas Heartbeat Act anonymously” by providing information and “evidence” in the form of visual attachments.

Enter: Shrek erotica. Since supporters of the pro-choice movement caught wind of the anonymous snitching site, they’ve shared various ways to disrupt it on social media. As one Reddit post sarcastically reads: “It would be a shame if we all made bogus tips, making the whole system useless.”

9. IMHO, what would make a useful contribution is burying the courts

in cases.

Let the judges know their offices and staffs will be buried in a cavalcade of frivolous suits from fly-by-night ambulance chasers and outright pranksters ... that they have to sort through, and then try to elucidate what's real and what's not.

They'll freaking hate it, and know that if they start handing out $10K+ awards, it'll only get worse.

21. There won't be any court cases.

Its a scare tactic. The first case brought would result in the law being exposed as unenforceable. Watch, there will never be an actual case brought.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

23. Doesn't have to ever be any 'actual court cases' ... for 100,000 of them to be filed

[Kablooie]

22. Someone made an app that allows anyone to flood the tip web site with bogus info.

Sounds like it's being put to good use.
