The news comes after a major report earlier this year revealed the Navy's biggest projects, including new Virginia-class submarines, were facing severe delays of up to three years. Absent today's intervention, I have zero confidence that Navy shipbuilding will get back on track." The Navy attributed shipbuilding delays across its top programs to COVID-19's impact on the workforce and supply chain. "Somehow, the Navy continues to assert that commitments to INDOPACOM and our AUKUS partners remain on track" despite Virginia-class delays, he said. Virginia-class submarines are considered vital to the US' role in deterring and, if necessary, fighting China.

☆ Sam Bankman-Fried's mom asked him for $92,000 — to be delivered within a day. I can (sort of) relate.

My child lost a tooth right before bedtime, and the Tooth Fairy found herself completely out of cash (who carries cash now?!). So, in the dark of night, I snuck into my son's piggy bank, stole a crumpled $5 bill, and placed it under my sleeping angel's pillow. (A note for him when he's old enough to google his mom and comes across this: Son, let's talk about this.) AdvertisementThe Journal looked at emails that had previously not been reported where Joe Bankman and Barbara Fried discussed political donations. As a mother who has "borrowed" money from her own child's piggy bank, I can relate.

☆ Where Amazon opens offices, free bananas follow. You can thank Jeff Bezos.

But one of its most distinct offerings is much simpler: A stand for distributing free bananas. On Thursday, during the ribbon-cutting for Metropolitan Park, the first phase of the new Virginia headquarters, the bananas were free to Amazon employees and visitors, including Virginia Gov. The idea came from Amazon founder and former CEO Jeff Bezos, who wanted to offer a free snack that was healthy and didn't come heavily packaged, Amazon told Insider. Bananas have another advantage, Amazon told Insider: You don't need to wash them before taking a bite. A banana stand also popped up temporarily at Washington DC's Union Station in 2017 as the company was facing increasing criticism from Congress, according to the New York Times.
