Exclusive: Trump's signature to appear on US currency, Treasury says, ending 165-year tradition
Source: Reuters
WASHINGTON, March 26 (Reuters) - 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.

(41,556 posts)Maybe I can live with that. Any bills with Chump's signature will become collectors' items. Along with his stupid fake gold coins. In 2029 we return the U.S. Treasury back to its former pre-Chump non-corrupt status. OK?

(657 posts)Once we start sharpie-ing the money or demanding "real" money the next thing these fascist fucks will do is start pulling any currency without his signature and destroying it.
Thus costing taxpayers even more money.
He is a piece of shit.
Oh, and postage stamps are next.

(1,561 posts)thought it would ever get this bad. His narcissism is absolutely off the charts. To get a coin with his name?? His name lives forever. It's the cherry on top of the cake. Yet you know he will go down in history as the worst, just on on the numbers alone. Not to mention his execution on project 25 to destroy democracy. It's all seems to be a bad bad dream. God help us all
