Instead of being present to manage the emergency, Murphy traveled to Europe to attend a close family friend&#8217;s wedding. His lieutenant governor, Tahesha Way, declared a state of emergency and urged residents to stay safe. The article criticizes murphy for prioritizing personal plans over his duties during a crisis,comparing him to another Democratic official,Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass,who also faced backlash for being away during a disaster. It suggests that if Murphy were a Republican, his absence would be heavily criticized, but media bias protects him. The piece argues that Democratic leaders often put personal interests ahead of their constituents, and voters should be aware of this pattern.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>With his state in a state of emergency, New Jersey&rsquo;s Democratic governor is AWOL.<\/p>\n<p>In a move reminiscent of the decision by Los Angeles Democratic Mayor Karen Bass to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/la-residents-rage-absent-mayor-wildfires-cause-devastation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">leave the country<\/a> just before her city was ravaged by historic fires, Garden State Gov.

A state of emergency has been declared out of an abundance of caution.<br \/> Our <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/69News?\">@69News<\/a> crew is reporting live in Ocean City with the latest updates. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7qK8X1IljZ\">https:\/\/t.co\/7qK8X1IljZ<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ahkz3RrJuY\">pic.twitter.com\/ahkz3RrJuY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Cierra Genelle (@thecierranews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thecierranews\/status\/1977731460745302478?\">October 13, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>As a coastal state, of course, New Jersey has weathered plenty of rough storms in the past &mdash; and done it without Phil Murphy being around.<\/p>\n<p>But the point is that when a governor signs on to the job of being a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-11-most-popular-governors-are-all-republicans\/\" title=\"The 11 Most Popular ...s Are All Republicans\">state chief executive<\/a>, the welfare of the state is supposed to come first &mdash; even ahead of jaunts to attend the wedding of a &ldquo;close family friend&rdquo; in some luxury spot in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>And it&rsquo;s a rock-solid bet that if Murphy had an &ldquo;R&rdquo; after his name instead of a &ldquo;D,&rdquo; Murphy&rsquo;s decision to spend the storm thousands of miles away would be a lightning rod for criticism all by itself.<\/p>\n<p>But Democrats have the bubble wrap of media bias protecting them. That&rsquo;s why Murphy can get away with things like bragging about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/dem-gov-bragged-hiding-illegal-alien-home-gets-bad-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">putting up an illegal alien<\/a> in a room over his garage.<\/p>\n<p>And if a term-limited Democratic governor already has one foot out the door while voters choose his successor (and that will be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trump-celebrates-new-poll-shows-republicans-shot-pulling-off-major-upset-new-jersey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Republican Jack Ciattarelli<\/a> if New Jersey voters have any sense), he&rsquo;s going to feel a lot more comfortable jetting off abroad knowing the establishment media is going to have his back.<\/p>\n<p>The thing is, though, New Jersey residents know where they stand on Murphy&rsquo;s priority list, just like the voters of Los Angeles know that when Karen Bass wants to enjoy a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/la-mayors-wildfire-blunder-looks-even-worse-campaign-promise-resurfaces\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip to West Africa<\/a>, warnings about wildfires aren&rsquo;t going to change her mind.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats don&rsquo;t care &mdash; it&rsquo;s clear.
