Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real
The coin will bear the word "Liberty" and the dates "1776–2026" for the 250th anniversary.
Living people are not supposed to appear on U.S. currency or stamps in order to avoid such self promotion.
But the CFA’s vice chair, James McCrery, said:
"I motion to approve this as presented, and with the strong encouragement that you make it as large as possible, all the way to three inches in diameter."
Officials report Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent used his narrow authority over commemorative coins to bypass the restriction for Trump's latest ego boost. Unless Congress intervenes, the U.S. Mint will move forward with the design, which Trump personally approved, to create a "24-karat gold" coin.
Most minted coins are done in 22-karat gold for overall durability and to resist scratching. The popular American Gold Eagle coin is 22-karat, or 91.67% purity.
The only 24-karat gold coin currently minted by the United States is the American Buffalo Gold Bullion coin with a $50 designated denomination, which is not available directly to the public from the mint. The bullion coins, introduced in 2006, are distributed "through a network of official distributors called authorized purchasers."
The coin design recreates the popular "Indian Head" or "Buffalo" nickel, which was introduced in 1913 and produced until 1938.

The mint also produces—for sale to the public at a whopping price tag just shy of $6,000—a 24-karat American Buffalo Gold Proof coin. It's unclear if Trump’s coin will be a bullion coin, only available through third parties, or a proof coin for collectors complete with a hefty price tag.
The reverse or "tails" side of Trump's gold coin will feature an eagle—not unlike the one that famously terrified Trump during a photoshoot in August 2015 for TIME magazine in his Manhattan office.

News of Trump's sycophants giving him another monument to himself spread quickly online...
...with some sharing the CFA (and Trump) approved sketches...
@onefussyone/Bluesky
...and others sharing golden mockups.
Despite having a Trump approved design, people across social media offered alternate designs.

No Trump coins have been struck yet, as approving the design is just the first step in creating a new coin. Traditionally, the approved coin is then sculpted in clay on a large scale, then scanned to create appropriately sized metal dies to press the coins. Given Trump's love of AI, they'll likely eliminate the use of any actual artists.
Even so, there's still time to pick a more appropriate design to represent the United States.
Or a more appropriate one to represent Trump.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports
Trump issued the announcement on Truth Social, all the while condemning "Radical Left Democrats" and praising Tom Homan, his border czar:
"On Monday, ICE will be going to airports to help our wonderful TSA Agents who have stayed on the job despite the fact that the Radical Left Democrats, who are only focused on protecting hard line criminals who have entered our Country illegally, are endangering the USA by holding back the money that was long ago agreed to with signed and sealed contracts, and all."
"But watch, no matter how great a job ICE does, the Lunatics leading the incompetent Dems will be highly critical of their work. THEY WILL DO A FANTASTIC JOB. The great Tom Homan is in charge!!!"
You can see his post below.
@realDonaldTrump/Truth Social
In remarks to reporters, Trump responded gleefully to the thought of ICE arresting people:
"They [ICE] love it because they're able to now arrest illegals as they come into the country. That's very fertile territory, but that's not why they're there. They're really there to help."
You can hear what he said in the video below.
In a post responding to the news of the deployments, Newsom made this important point:
"By sending ICE into airports, Trump is proving the problem in real time: ICE has become the president’s lawless, under-trained, personal police force, deployed to serve his agenda — not the law."
You can see his post below.
He followed up with the following message on his personal account:
"Donald Trump has one playbook, no matter the issue or problem: SEND IN ICE! Trump owns the government shutdown. He's incompetent — pathetic."
You can see his post below.
Many concurred.
ICE and TSA are both agencies within the Department of Homeland Security, but they serve very different functions.
ICE officers are armed federal law-enforcement agents with authority to investigate crimes and make arrests, primarily related to immigration and customs violations.
TSA personnel, by contrast, are unarmed security screeners responsible for airport safety screening and do not have general police or arrest powers. More than 400 TSA agents have left their positions since DHS funding lapsed and their payments were paused.
This won't end well.
Fans Can't Believe How Old Reese Witherspoon Is After She Just Celebrated A Milestone Birthday
For her birthday, Witherspoon shared a series of fun photos and captioned the post:
"Turning 50 today... just thought I would show you some highlights."
"Gotta laugh every day you can!"
You can see Witherspoon's birthday Instagram post here:
Fans were quick to celebrate and wish Witherspoon a happy birthday.

But over on the "Pop Culture Chat" subReddit, Redditors were focused on something else: her age.
While Witherspoon has aged since her Legally Blonde days, her photographs do not look like she's aged the 30 years between Legally Blonde at 20 and her birthday at 50.
"GIRL LOOKS THE SAME AS SHE DID WHEN SHE WAS IN 'LEGALLY BLONDE.'" - Own-Importance5459
"Is this photoshopped? Her skin looks younger than mine, and I'm closer in age to her daughter. And I adore her dress!" - sushiroll465
"She looks great but also like herself which is refreshing." - VacationLizLemon
"I swear this woman is a vampire." - kawaiihusbando
"Happy Birthday, Reese! The beauty and aging gods are clearly in your favor!" - Nintendo_Pro_03
Some Redditors also came in with a reality check.
"She looks great, and of course she looks closer to 30. Celebrities get tons of minor work done all the time. Do not compare your skin to someone who literally gets paid to look good on camera."
"Also, some people are just blessed with good skin and good bone structure. My mom and dad are close to 60, and they literally have flawless skin, very little sun damage despite not wearing sunscreen all their lives, and very few lines on their face. Sometimes it's just pure luck, so do not compare your face to hers, please." - redbeesley
"She looks amazing, but people in the skincare subs always ask for the routines celebs who are in their 50s/60s and look ~30-35ish have, and the answer is always good genetics and access to things normal people don’t have easy access to." - sadproperty
"Can celebs stop editing/photoshopping their pics? Seen her candid pics and she definitely looks her age and there is nothing wrong with that." - itsfranklygrim
"She doesn't look as young as she did when she filmed 'Legally Blonde,' but she absolutely does not look 50. She easily passes for around 40, and many would assume late thirties."
"And yes, I've seen some pictures of her face in a high-quality photo without filters, where you can see the wrinkles. I've also seen a lot of other 50-year-olds in real life where I live, extremely far away from Hollywood or anywhere where enhanced cosmetic procedures and sunscreen are normalized." - Magnaflorius
"I just saw her in person not long ago. And I PROMISE you... she does not look 50, even by Hollywood standards. But some people do have really good genetics and work done." - Falling4Strangersoutro
While Witherspoon may not look as young as she did for Legally Blonde, she still looks fabulous, and like she said in her Instagram post, you have to laugh every chance you get.
It's not about looking young forever; it's about enjoying your life as it comes and enjoying every day to the fullest!
Chappell Roan Speaks Out After Soccer Star Says Her Security Guard Aggressively Confronted His Young Daughter
The soccer star said his stepdaughter, Harding’s daughter with actor Jude Law, is a fan of Roan’s music and “simply walked past the singer’s table” to get a glimpse of her before returning to her family.
The soccer star described what he called a “disproportionate” response from security:
“[He] began speaking in an extremely aggressive manner to both my wife and my daughter, saying that she shouldn’t allow my daughter to ‘disrespect’ or ‘harass’ other people.”
He added that the guard claimed he would file a complaint with the hotel, noting that his own experience in the public eye has given him a clear understanding of “respect and boundaries.”
He shared his broader reaction to the incident:
“I sincerely hope this serves as a moment of reflection. No one should have to go through this, especially not a child.”
Harding also addressed the situation, saying she told the security guard that her daughter is accustomed to being around public figures and that, as hotel guests, they had every right to move freely through the space. She denied any suggestion that her daughter behaved inappropriately, adding that they never approached the singer.
Frello escalated his criticism in a follow-up message:
“WITHOUT YOUR FANS, YOU WOULD BE NOTHING. AND TO THE FANS, SHE DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR AFFECTION.”
Harding later reposted his statements on her Instagram Stories, alongside a photo of her daughter’s fan-made sign for Roan’s performance, which referenced the pop star’s song “HOT TO GO!”
You can view his post below:
Roan responded on Sunday, sharing what she described as her “half of the story” after the Brazilian soccer star accused one of her security guards of leaving his stepdaughter “extremely shaken” and “in tears.”
In a video posted to her Instagram Stories, Roan said the guard involved was not part of her team and that she did not witness any interaction involving a child or a woman at the hotel.
The singer addressed the situation from her perspective:
“No one came up to me, no one bothered me…”
She also emphasized that she did not instruct anyone to confront the family.
Roan responded to the security guard’s actions:
“It’s unfair for security to just assume someone doesn’t have good intentions when they have no reason to believe [that] because there’s no action even taken.”
You can watch her video response here:
In a separate Instagram Stories post, Roan addressed online reactions that mocked the situation. "I do not hate people who are fans of my music. I do not hate children. Like, that is crazy," she said.
The internet quickly split between those defending the family and those backing Roan’s stance on boundaries.
Meanwhile, Harding shared a video of her daughter enjoying Friday’s Lollapalooza Brazil headliner Sabrina Carpenter, noting that the 11-year-old chose not to attend Roan’s set the following day due to “how we were treated.”
Harding posted her own video response:
Naturally, people had opinions about that, too.
The moment also comes as Roan has been vocal about fan behavior. In 2024, the singer expressed to her followers that some interactions had crossed the line into harassment and stalking as her popularity increased. More recently, while heading to a dinner in Paris, she criticized autograph seekers and photographers in the crowd for “completely disregarding all of my boundaries.”
As the controversy continue to circulate online and draw responses beyond social media, including from Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Cavaliere, the situation highlights the ongoing tension between celebrity security and fan access, and how quickly those lines can blur.
