RFK Jr saying he never knew anybody who was autistic as a kid is particularly galling considering his aunt Eunice founded a day camp for kids with autism in 1962 and founded the Special Olympics in 1968
Just a completely dishonest POS

Looks like @GoogleAI is just fabricating Bible verses out here. "Weapon" does not appear in any translation of 2 Thess. 1:11 hosted by Bible Gateway: biblegateway.com/verse/en/2%…

So I spent *way* too much time on this, but here's how long it takes to walk to the nearest train station at all 30 MLB stadiums
Metro is urging Dodger fans to walk from the stadium to the Chinatown station after home games. They say it can be done in about 25 minutes. We walked the route, which is just over one mile. Follow along with us! 🚶 abc7.la/48l4s47
