For anyone else that didn't read the first paragraph of the article, here it is:

> The White House deleted a Twitter post on Wednesday touting an increase in Social Security benefits for seniors after the social media platform added a “context” note pointing out that the increase was tied to a 1972 law requiring automatic increases based on cost of living changes.

Emphasis is mine; added for "context". :)
