U.S. officials move to protect all deposits at Silicon Valley Bank in a bid to stem a wider fallout.

Federal regulators stepped in yesterday to back all deposits at Silicon Valley Bank to resolve a key uncertainty surrounding the second-largest bank failure in U.S. history before global stock markets resumed trading this morning.

She forgot to check her spelling, which she didn't discover until Gabrielle went to get her learner's permit as a teen. There was no record of a Gabrielle Mayor with that social security number in the DMV computer. There was, however, a "Babrielle" Mayor. It all got sorted out, and Gabrielle shared the fun fact on TikTok recently.
