Media Matters has won its lawsuit against Texas AG Ken Paxton.

Paxton (at Elon Musk’s encouragement) launched an investigation into Media Matters.

We sued asking court to bar him from proceeding. We were just granted our injunction.

Big win for us and free speech!

Lol. Lmao.

At one point after something like 50 shots have been fired, Reed gets out of his car.
