NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - A new bill introduced in the Tennessee Senate on Thursday would require sexual offenders to report to authorities their membership in a church or another religious organization.

SB 0451, introduced by Sen. Becky Massey (R-Knoxville), is pushing for sex offenders to have to report to authorities if they’re registered members of a Tennessee religious organization.

In turn, the bill would also require the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation to provide all public information about an offender to any church, temple, or other religious group or organization in Tennessee where the offender is a member.

“As introduced, requires sexual and violent sexual offenders to disclose the name, address, and phone number of any church, temple, or other religious group or organization in this state where the offender is a registered member; specifies that this information is considered public information; requires the TBI to provide all public information about an offender to any church, temple, or other religious group or organization in this state where the offender is a registered member when an offender registers as a sexual or violent sexual offender or updates a registration,” the bill reads.

Deranged Dictator donOLD tRUMP signs Executive Order suggesting DOJ prosecute teachers who use the wrong pronouns as sex offenders

I told you so. I fucking told you so. Yet, there were people withing the Anti-Registry Movement who thought I was lying, despite it being discussed in Project 2025. 

And now it is here. tRump suggests by executive order , in accordance with Poject 2025, that teachers who call children by their preferred pronouns by prosecuted under sexual exploitation laws, a registerable sex offense. All the anti-registry activists thinking tRump would save them from the registry are fools. tRump seeks to expand the registry, not eliminate it.

Feeling stupid yet?

(I usually post a pic but I'm sick of tRump's ugly mug so no pic today.)

Trump Tells DOJ to Prosecute Teachers Who “Unlawfully” Support Trans or Nonbinary Students

The latest executive order also threatens funding for schools that teach about gender and race.

By: Sarah Szilagy & Madison Pauly, 1/29/25

...In the executive order issued Wednesday evening, titled “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 schooling,” Trump directs the attorney general to work with local and state officials to investigate teachers who “unlawfully facilitat[e] the social transition of a minor student.” The order defines “social transitioning” to include using a trans student’s name and pronouns, recognizing a student as nonbinary, or allowing them to use the restroom that aligns with their gender identity.

The same section of the order suggests that K-12 teachers and school officials who take action to support trans students’ identities be prosecuted under laws banning sexual exploitation of minors and practicing medicine without a license. There are 3.8 million public school teachers in the United States, according to the National Center for Education Statistics....
