A Christian nurse in New Jersey just won a major victory against the woke machine.
The hospital where she works learned a very expensive lesson.
And one nurse called out a doctor celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder and justice was swift.
Hospital forced to do the right thing after massive backlash
Dr. Matthew Jung is out of a job, and Lexi Kuenzle is back at work with full pay.
On Monday, Englewood Health announced they had accepted Jung’s resignation and that the 33-year-old nurse would be reinstated to her position.
The hospital also confirmed she won’t lose any pay during her suspension.
“We have accepted the physician’s resignation, and the nurse is expected to work her scheduled shifts,” the hospital said in a statement Monday.¹
This is what happens when someone finally stands up to the woke mob – and wins.
Kuenzle had watched in horror as Jung “cheered and publicly praised” Kirk’s death right there in front of patients and staff.
Instead of quietly keeping her head down, she had the courage to call him out.
“Had the audacity to say, ‘I’m glad, he deserved it,’ in front of a patient/nursing station in regard to Charlie Kirk’s being murdered,” Kuenzle posted on Instagram about Jung’s disgusting celebration.²
Even worse, Jung then “offered to buy the nursing staff lunch” after his outburst – like a Happy Meal would somehow make up for celebrating political assassination.
The hospital tried to punish the whistleblower
But here’s where things got ugly for a while.
Instead of immediately firing Jung for his disgusting behavior, Englewood Health initially went after Kuenzle.
They suspended her without pay and made her think she might lose her job entirely.
The hospital claims they “never told her she would be fired,” but Kuenzle’s lawsuit tells a different story.
What’s crystal clear is that they suspended the wrong person first.
Kuenzle filed her complaint with management on Wednesday.
She also posted about Jung’s behavior on her personal Instagram account.
That’s when hospital administrators decided she was somehow the problem.
They put her on unpaid suspension while they conducted their “investigation.”
Meanwhile, Jung kept working – the guy who celebrated a political assassination in front of patients was allowed to keep treating people while the nurse who reported him got punished.
Think about how backwards that is.
Kuenzle gets vindication and sends a powerful message
By Monday, the public pressure was too much for Englewood Health to ignore.
Jung resigned, Kuenzle got her job back, and she delivered a statement that every healthcare worker should read.
“A hospital is supposed to be a place of healing, compassion, and professionalism, not a place where a rogue staff member cheers the death of someone because of their views,” Kuenzle said.³
She continued: “Speaking up wasn’t optional for me; it was my duty as a nurse to protect patients from that kind of cruelty and to uphold the integrity of our profession. God bless Charlie Kirk and his family. His voice without a doubt will outlive the noise of those spreading hate.”
That’s exactly the kind of backbone we need to see more of.
Kuenzle’s attorney from the Dhillon Law Group – founded by Trump’s new Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon – made it clear what this case was really about.
“No nurse should ever face retaliation for reporting illegal and unethical conduct, especially when that conduct happens in front of patients,” attorney John-Paul Deol said.⁴
The lawsuit isn’t going away just because Jung resigned and Kuenzle got reinstated.
Her legal team is still working with the hospital “to resolve the remaining details” of what happened to her.
Translation: There’s probably going to be a settlement check with a lot of zeros on it.
Look, here’s why this victory matters so much
This story just became a blueprint for how to fight back against woke insanity in the workplace.
A Christian nurse refused to stay quiet when a doctor celebrated political violence in front of patients.
She got punished for doing the right thing.
But instead of backing down, she lawyered up and made enough noise that the hospital had no choice but to fix their mistake.
Jung is out. Kuenzle is back. Justice served.
You want to know why healthcare workers have been losing faith in their institutions? This is exactly why.
When administrators’ first instinct is to protect the guy celebrating assassination and punish the woman who reports it, you know the system is broken.
For patients walking into hospitals these days, this should be deeply concerning.
What kind of “care” are you going to get from a doctor who celebrates political murder?
What other patients has this guy treated differently based on their beliefs?
The fact that Jung felt comfortable enough to cheer about Kirk’s death in front of colleagues tells you this wasn’t his first time letting his politics affect his professionalism.
But here’s the encouraging part – when people stand up and fight back, they can win.
Kuenzle didn’t just save her own career. She sent a message to every woke ideologue in healthcare: we’re not going to tolerate this garbage anymore.
The Left always talks about “speaking truth to power.”
Well, here’s a Christian nurse who literally did that – and she won.
More people need to follow her example.
