X community adds a context note to Texas AG Ken Paxton post: The X account for the Texas Attorney General's office posted "Attor­ney Gen­er­al Ken Pax­ton Secures Unan­i­mous SCO­TUS Win on Texas Prop­er­ty Rights Case:" The post included a link to an article on the AG's website with the same headline. The account for Attorney General Ken Paxton shared the post, adding his own commentary. He said "WIN: Today we secured a unanimous 9-0 win at the U.S. Supreme Court in a case protecting the ability of Texas to handle compensation disputes under State law for any allegedly taken property. For as long as Texas has been Texas, it has recognized that property rights are crucial to a free society. Under the U.S. Constitution, such claims should be pursued under state law unless Congress has said otherwise. I'm pleased the Supreme Court agreed with us unanimously that citizens should sue under Texas law."  The X community added a note to the post that read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. Texas did not win. Texas asked the Court to affirm the 5th Circuit’s ruling. The Court instead vacated the 5th Circuit’s ruling. supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf…" The label is part of X’s Community Notes system.
