U.S. paper currency will bear President Donald Trump's signature to mark the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence, the ​Treasury Department said on Thursday, a first for a sitting president, while ‌deleting the Treasurer of the United States' signature from U.S. money for the first time in 165 years.
The Treasury said in a statement to Reuters that the first $100 bills with Trump's signature and ​that of U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will be printed in June, followed ​by other bills in subsequent months.

The Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and ⁠Printing is currently still producing notes bearing the signatures of former President Joe Biden's ​Treasury secretary, Janet Yellen, and Treasurer Lynn Malerba.
Malerba will be the last of an ​unbroken line of Treasurers whose signatures had appeared on U.S. federal currency since 1861, when it was first issued by the U.S. government.

Since these are "Federal Reserve Notes", I wonder if they have a say in the matter?

If the SOB is going to put his name on them, they should draw the reserves from the billions he's gotten paid or insider-traded to - Mideast hotels, a bitcoin, Truth Social, Mar-a-Lago fees, the Omani jet gift, prediction trade on Venezuela, prediction trade on war announcement a week ago, etc etc etc...

I posted a link, and snip from the official Treasury Dept announcement of this, on the Policy board. I dare not comment on it here.

What is even more bizarre is that Trump will have a coin minted with his image on both sides of the coin. Talk about narcissism and megalomania! Even the Roman emperors didn't do that.

Yup, a coin with his image on both sides — naturally, something that matches his inability to see beyond himself.

Or he just wants to insure all coin tosses go to him. Heads, I win!

I was thinking something more like both sides are tails....

> on both sides of the coin.

Thanks for this Wendy, I laughed out loud.

Perhaps we should invest in any companies that can mint coins with tiny images along the sides too.
