As he enters the final chapter of his time in office, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy chose to mark Christmas Eve, one of the holiest and most sacred nights in the Christian faith, commemorating the anticipation of the birth of Christ, by publicly advancing his administration’s abortion agenda.
Rather than acknowledging the profound spiritual significance of the evening for millions of Christians, Governor Murphy instead announced a $22 million funding commitment to “protect and grow” access to abortion through what his administration calls the Reproductive Health Access Fund, an abortion slush fund designed to funnel taxpayer dollars to abortion providers.
While the funding itself is not new, it was quietly inserted into the state budget earlier this year, the decision to highlight it on Christmas Eve was striking. The Governor further used the moment to boast that during his eight years in office, his administration has directed $268 million in taxpayer funds to Planned Parenthood’s abortion business, rewarding his most loyal political constituency.
The announcement was not only tone-deaf, but deeply offensive. Christmas Eve is a night centered on reflection, reverence, and the celebration of life, hope, and the birth of one incredibly special child who changed the world. The timing underscored a blatant disregard for the sanctity of life and deeply held religious convictions of countless families across the state.
On Christmas Eve—a night that honors the gift of life—Governor Murphy will long be remembered as a governor who chose to champion a culture of death.
According to reported statistics, 59,000 abortions were performed in New Jersey in 2024 alone—a staggering number by any measure. Rather than expressing concern or restraint, the Governor’s Christmas Eve announcement was openly boastful, celebrating additional taxpayer funding to expand abortion access and proclaim New Jersey as an Open Border Abortion Safe Haven state.
Instead of pausing to reflect on the loss of life, Governor Murphy’s insatiable desire to pursue policies designed to drive that number even higher is profoundly repulsive. How terribly sad and disgracefully unbecoming of one entrusted to serve as governor of all the people.

Because he’s an immoral creep with a leftist wife he tried to put in the US Senate.

“Because he’s an immoral creep”
and those are his good points!
An important part of the larger Christmas narrative so often missed is the so-named "slaughter of the innocents."
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men." Matthew 2:16, in the King James translation.
I'd mentioned this to a somewhat wishy-washy acquaintance, who'd replied at first "why bring that up in this festive time?"

If either or both of you are Catholic then just going to Mass today, Sunday, the question would be answered.
“Holy Innocents’ Day in 2025 falls on Sunday, December 28th, a traditional Christian observance remembering the young boys massacred by King Herod in Bethlehem, honoring them as the first martyrs, and often observed with special blessings for children and prayers for vulnerable youth. Also known as Childermas, it’s a day of solemn remembrance within the joyous Christmas season”
Well written story, thank you.



Judgement Day is coning, Murphy, and it’s bringing helll with it....
His replacement will do the same thing, probably even more.

Christmas Eve is about Life, Governor! And it is about a Baby!

What’s new or surprising about that? “Kill the baby” has been the Democrat party Prime Directive since 1970.

That perfectly sums up the left to a T.
Sad but true.
Amen!
Especially those black ones!
