Washington Times: According to a CBS News report, the Treasury Department will announce this week that it will redesign the $20 bill to include a famous woman’s face, not the $10 bill as initially planned.
Citing “people familiar with the process,” CBS reported Monday evening that Treasury Secretary Jack Lew will announce that his predecessor Alexander Hamilton will stay on the $10 bill, but “a scene of women throughout history will be added to the back.”
Mr. Lew also is expected to announce which woman will now have the place on the $20 bill currently held by former president Andrew Jackson, more here
I was hoping for George Jefferson.
Double damned guaranteed it will be a gay or transgendered minority of color.
No wonder our money is heading toward worthlessness.
Our currency has been degraded to funny money status, Phyllis Diller would be the perfect choice.
I nominate Ayn Rand to be the new face of the yuppie food stamp ($20 bill).
Well, at least this makes more sense than the original proposal. Hamilton’s Bank of the US functioned to some degree like the Federal Reserve System while Jackson opposed banks of all kinds as well as paper money.
The gal said
“$10! What do you think I am!?”
Why am I thinking like…. Back of the Bus?
I smell Libby vapors coming up.Must be some drama here some where.
So Andy Jackson is going to be replaced on the sawbuck, with what inappropriate politically correct broad or other weirdo do they replace him with? And when exactly do these bastards want to put In Gaia We Trust on our currency?
Really what needs to happen is denominations need to cease. It’s clearly not fair if someone has a $20 versus someone else with a $10 especially if we’re talking about obtaining pictographs of females. All money should be the same because freedom and fairness. Hell, just get rid of “money” and exchange dildos instead.
I nominate Juanita Broaddrick.
A lightly dressed and seductive World War II pinup would be the perfect picture to replace the hero of the Battle of New Orleans!
Miley Cyrus.
And make it a “Scratch ‘n’ Sniff” bill.
They didn’t want to replace Alexander Hamilton because he’s popular now. With diversity r us in casting the Broadway musical- it hits all the right notes and so Hamilton is an acceptable Founding Father.
Mooch chowing on a chicken leg would be fitting. Someone come up with the art please?
Quick. Someone start writing a musical about Jackson.
Barring that, let’s see Harriet Tubman. She was a right Republican.
@eternal cracker p,
“Hell, just get rid of “money” and exchange dildos instead.”
Do you mean like McCain and Lindsey do now?
Well, it does save a lot of math, since they would have to revalue the $10 bill to $7.83…
I nominate Monica Lewinsky. That way when you blow your money, you can say, “Hey – she started it…!”
?
Jackson

on the NEW $20 bill.
Czar for the win!
Janet Jackson?
Aaron Burr to replace Hamilton because he gave the central banker just what he deserved.
In all seriousness, I support having Harriet Tubman on the $20. Would love to have a God-fearing, gun totting, Republican on it.
Hey, we are broke anyways so why not spend money and effort redesigning something that doesn’t need it?
This whole idea should be defenestrated.
@ JohnS
OK, I’ll finish it… “$10? What do you think I am?”
“We know what you are. We’re haggling over price.”
