This is such a critical distinction but one that can be hard to get across to folks

SCB has assets to cover almost the entire payout. It’s just illiquid (can’t be sold fast enough to cover the run of withdrawals). The assets still exist. So the only cost will be making up the difference in the short term to cover any withdrawals. The bank was not insolvent. They just rebalanced and it started a run.
SVB also was trying to raise money from selling stock but the same psychology that led to the bank run led to a crash in the stock. It's all psychology and that's why ensuring confidence in banking, nationally, is so important.

Should never have gotten to that point. It seems like competent leadership would have handled it better, and tried to look ahead for problems and keep things more fluid.

That's the kind of thing that can happen at a bank, and nowadays, it can happen very fast, due to instant communications and social media.

Completely false

Why didn't they already sell off some of these assets?
Because this collapse happened in like 48 hours.

Because there is a theoretical chance the banks pass on the costs they agreed to incur to consumers. You know, the traditional and very direct definition of bailout.

Okay and how are these special assessments going to be recovered by the banks?

@FDICgov insurance fund capitalized by premiums paid by banks will absorb any losses.
That's right. They will pass it on to their customers - and that's every FDIC insured institution, not just those on Wall Street.
So this is more of a Main Street bailing out Silicon Valley situation.

That sounds good and all but if we insure all depositors for the full amount what happens if a ton more banks start failing? We can’t afford that level of insurance. The FDIC has an insurance limit for a reason
If the cost is covered through premiums paid by banks, and banks are already strained, could it not create more bank failure? Causing a domino effect as more banks fails and more premiums on the remaining banks? Or at the least those costs get passed on to depositors in some way so we end up paying for it anyways.
I don’t agree with covering all the depositors 100%. Do the 250k for individuals and say maybe 25 or 50% for companies

Dude think about what you just said.
If a ton of banks start failing, FDIC can't insure shite for any of them.
The entire point of this move is to inject confidence in consumers to not make multiple banks start failing.
You know how a bank can't survive a bank run? The FDIC can't survive a rash of bank failures, either.

SVB failed because of a run on the bank. They're still solvent.

You need a link to tell you that companies will pass on regulatory and overhead costs to customers?
Did you take any economics classes in undergrad?

What is “Wall Streets” EIN or Social Security number? That’s right, “Wall Street” isn’t an entity that has anyway of making anything whole. Only people can. People - period. Now who are the people behind this magic place you call “Wall Street” - the American people.
You can eat up all the BS spin you want but at the end of the day the people of this country will once again be on the hook for yet another instance where Joe Biden and his team screwed up. Maybe if they were more focused on there jobs than deciding which gender they are and which orifice they were going to put a stranger penis in this wouldn’t be happening so much.

You serious Clark?
This is Bill Ackman, the last person we should trust.
He's telling the public to calm down and not panic. What does this tell you?
He's probably turning around at the same time and telling his fund managers to quietly liquidate all relevant assets off their books.
Come on bro.

The Fed's new program allowing the survivors to loan their debt securities at par value is a bail out

Several reasons, here's a few:
Signals to markets that something up.
Assets are illiquid
Even they didn't realize how bad it was until it was too late

Somehow the Biden Crime Family got 10% of the cash transfer.
