However, it also sounds like some of the texts were discoverable, such as the one about how much money Infowars made in a day, but Jones had refused to comply with discovery requests. That why he was given the ultimate discovery sanction, defaulted, and this is just a prove-up hearing.

It's TRCP 193.3(d)

(d) Privilege not waived by production. A party who produces material or information without intending to waive a claim of privilege does not waive that claim under these rules or the Rules of Evidence if - within ten days or a shorter time ordered by the court, after the producing party actually discovers that such production was made - the producing party amends the response, identifying the material or information produced and stating the privilege asserted. If the producing party thus amends the response to assert a privilege, any party who has obtained the specific material or information must promptly return the specified material or information and any copies pending any ruling by the court denying the privilege.
