GRANADA HILLS (CBSLA) — Residents of a Granada Hills neighborhood fear for their safety and property values after what looks to be a junkyard has taken over one home’s yard. Neighbors have been trying to get the city to force the owner to clean it up for nearly three years, but to no avail.

Now, the city, the Los Angeles Police Department, and even the television show “Hoarders,” have gotten involved. CBSLA learned that the city is finally going to stand up and try to fix the problem for neighbors by filing a nuisance abatement. The Los Angeles Police Department was also seen on Bircher Street, going door-to-door interviewing neighbors — the same people who say they have been fighting for … [Read more...] about Granada Hills Junk House: ‘Hoarders’ TV Show, City, LAPD Get Involved As Junk Remains Piled In Yard Of Granada Hills Home

Scarborough Goes Off On ‘Trump Terrorists’ After House Session Is Canceled Over Security Concerns
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough ripped into “Trump terrorists” Thursday after the House session was canceled due to security concerns at the U.S. Capitol. House leadership announced that legislative business would be shut down for the week on Wednesday after Capitol Police reported a possible threat from a militia group. The Senate, however, has not canceled its session. “Not a surprise that these terrorists that attacked on 1/6 inspired other future terrorists,” Scarborough said. “Especially when you have them possibly coming in and the chatter is about stolen elections, election fraud.” (RELATED: ‘Drag All Of These People Into Prison’: Joe Scarborough Wants 20-Year Sentence For Everyone Who Got Inside Capitol) WATCH: Scarborough also went after former President Donald Trump for “stirring up that big lie” at the Conservative Political Action Conference ( CPAC ) during his speech on Sunday.

ND House passes bill barring trans youth from teams that match their gender identity
The North Dakota state House of Representatives passed a bill on Thursday that will prohibit youth transgender athletes from joining teams that match their gender identity. The bill, HB 1298, passed in the state House 65-26, according to the Grand Forks Herald , and will now move to the state's Senate for consideration and amendments. The bill also bans sporting events from receiving public funding if they have a trans athlete playing on a team that matches their gender identity. ADVERTISEMENT An amendment adopted late into the proceedings would allow girls to play on exclusively boys' sports teams, according to KFYR notes, which would be a violation of Title IX. “Some have said this bill just doesn’t follow the science. We’ve got science going back well before the United States that backs this. This isn’t new science. Men and women didn’t just cease to exist. They’ve existed for a long time and we’ve been able to recognize the differences,” state Rep. Ben … [Read more...] about ND House passes bill barring trans youth from teams that match their gender identity
