Statement summary
Paxton says three egg producers conspired to profit from antitrust violations that raised egg prices. His office says they will donate more than 53 million eggs to food banks and community organizations in involved states, including seven million for Texas.
“These three major egg producers conspired to profit off antitrust violations that ultimately raised the prices of eggs for Americans.”
Paxton alleges that three egg producers conspired to raise prices and welcomes the settlement. Cal-Maine disputes wrongdoing and any effect on prices.
Archived copy (opens in a new tab)The alleged coordination of egg prices is the conduct under scrutiny. Paxton criticizes it as antitrust violations that hurt consumers. His approval of the remedy does not amount to defending the alleged conduct.

Response to this claim
Community Capital Partners, the developer of EPIC City, violated Texas securities law, including through fraudulent practices while soliciting funds.
“The leaders behind EPIC City have engaged in a radical plot to destroy hundreds of acres of beautiful Texas land and line their own pockets”
Press release from the Texas Office of the Attorney General announcing a lawsuit against the East Plano Islamic Center, Community Capital Partners and several of their leaders under Texas securities law.
Archived copy (opens in a new tab)The reference point is the Texas government's pursuit of a securities fraud case against the EPIC City developers. Paxton announces the suit and says the project's leaders engaged in "a radical plot" to "line their own pockets", so we labeled it Defended. The closest competing label is Condemned; it loses for the same reason as his October statement: he is defending and pursuing the state's case.

Response to this claim
Community Capital Partners, the developer of EPIC City, violated Texas securities law, including through fraudulent practices while soliciting funds.
“After a thorough investigation, it has become clear that the developers behind EPIC City flagrantly and undeniably violated the law”
Press release from the Texas Office of the Attorney General announcing its findings in the EPIC City investigation and asking the Texas State Securities Board to refer the matter back for a lawsuit.
The reference point is the Texas government's pursuit of a securities fraud case against the EPIC City developers. Paxton says the developers "flagrantly and undeniably violated the law" and asks for the referral he needs to sue, so we labeled it Defended. The closest competing label is Condemned, since he condemns the developers; it loses because the conduct under scrutiny here is the state's case, which he is advancing.
