Kudos to @RoKhanna. Every word of this is true. Decisive action is needed to protect the regional banking system. The run on other banks has already started. https://t.co/G45fvuKQaJ — PolitiTweet.org

What Yellen should have said: 1. No bailout for SVB stockholders/bond holders. 2. But deposits are safe—not just at SVB but at all regional banks. You can trust the US banking system. 3. We will backstop it if necessary to prevent contagion. We will defend the US banking system. — PolitiTweet.org

The basic formula here is actually correct… 1. No bailout for SVB stockholders/bond holders. 2. But we will meet the needs of depositors. 3. And prevent contagion… But it all sounds hopeless vague. Half-measures won’t stop a banking crisis. https://t.co/sfw27Kt2C7 — PolitiTweet.org

@AlexBerenson It’s like GPT was told to write a formulaic populist class warfare rant without even understanding the particulars. SVB had 40,000 small business customers who are impacted. If this was “Farmers’ Bank,” you would understand the risk of contagion. It will be obvious soon enough. — PolitiTweet.org

The spike in interest rates took out SVB first, but it could have been any bank. Soon the contagion will spread and it will become obvious that animosity towards tech is blinding people to the real issue. — PolitiTweet.org

In reality, this has little or nothing to do with tech. It’s about whether half the deposits in the US (which are uninsured) can be trusted. — PolitiTweet.org

SVB’s customers are being treated like they engaged in some incredibly risky behavior for which they’re being unfairly bailed out. But all they did was open a bank account! That’s not an investment, it’s a deposit. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not asking for a bailout. I’m asking for banking regulators to ensure the integrity of the system. Either deposits in the US are safe or they’re not. If not, look out below. We have a very big problem on our hands. — PolitiTweet.org

@balajis @mattparlmer When you say "they'll run after yours" does this refer to David Sacks asking Yellen and Powell for a bailout?

Sometimes entertaining Steve Bannon worked at Goldman Sachs but doesn’t seem to remember what systemic risk is. The people lining up to get their money out of this bank don’t look like “elites” to me, Steve! https://t.co/bc4m7w3Fdp https://t.co/nsXmg2njTE — PolitiTweet.org

Community banks simply won’t be able to compete if the Fed says you can lose your deposits there but not at a Big 4 bank. The Big 4 will have too great a regulatory advantage by virtue of being “too big to fail.” — PolitiTweet.org

Blaming depositors for bank failure is like placing the blame for medical malpractice on patients because they didn’t do a good enough job shopping for a doctor. Depositors expect the Fed to ensure that banks are safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Only morons in the media could blame a single VC or even all VCs for SVB’s demise. It happened because SVB mismanaged its balance sheet and communications, with regulators asleep at the wheel. The sharks on Wall Street already smelled blood in the water by Thursday morning, and… — PolitiTweet.org

If you’re a conservative who doesn’t believe that the Fed should act decisively to stop this banking crisis, you’re being played for a sucker or a fool. The result will be the further concentration of Big Finance in a small number of politically connected firms. — PolitiTweet.org
