Dems’ constitution concern
Make no mistake: Democrats run scared on the thought that conventional public faculties will lose of their battle towards public constitution faculties in New York Metropolis (“Liu’s Stealth Assault on Good Colleges,” Editorial, June 11).
Public-school academics and unions would lose if a very degree taking part in subject inspired the opening of extra charters.
No marvel they struggle to maintain their jobs on the expense of kids who deserve an setting that common public faculties so typically fail to provide.
When will odd residents rise as much as problem this critically corrupt system? When will politicians rise to the problem? Serving to youngsters obtain superior academic outcomes helps us all, not simply unions.
Or will we simply condemn a sure section of our inhabitants to sub-standard educating?

No Ghislaine redo
By no means ought to there be a retrial for Ghislaine Maxwell (“Maxwell juror’s request,” Jan. 13). Sufficient is sufficient already.
What number of a whole lot of hundreds of dollars has been spent on this girl, by no means thoughts the monetary price of monitoring her down after she was in hiding for almost a 12 months?
The core of the case is her function within the abuse of a lot of underage teenage women and that has been confirmed past affordable doubt. If her group is profitable in gaining a mistrial, then all of the victims can be put by means of their agonies once more.
Throw her in jail, throw away the important thing and let her get used to a lifetime of bologna on white bread, carrying the identical jail “fashions” day in and day trip.

Adams’ proper name
Kudos to Mayor Adams for recognizing the difficulty the appointment of his brother as a NYPD deputy commissioner was inflicting (“Adams Household: Half 2,” Jan. 13).
Now, can he additionally demote Phil Banks again to being an unindicted co-conspirator? How a person with a previous so checkered has been elevated to such a excessive place is deeply disturbing to me.

Fake vax card fury
The Submit reported that Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell “warned cops this week towards handing in faux COVID-10 vaccination playing cards, reminding them doing so is against the law” (“Cops warned on faux vaccine playing cards,” Jan. 13).
Gov. Hochul signed laws making cast playing cards a felony. Final week, we learn how a person robbed $2,000 value of medicines from a Duane Reade and menaced the supervisor with a knife, however the Manhattan district lawyer solely charged this beforehand convicted felon with a misdemeanor.
What does PC Sewell say to these victims or cops who put themselves at risk when arresting this man? Did he have a legitimate COVID vaccine card?
I don't condone cast COVID playing cards for apparent causes, however what message are we sending to the general public and the police? The messaging is totally off base. The contradictions are too many to depend.
Can we please have a rational elected official to have the braveness to name this out? If not, can a accountable citizen converse plainly and contemplate working for workplace?

Ronnie’s legacy
I’m saddened by the latest dying of Ronnie Spector (“RIP Ronnie, 78, girl-group legend,” Jan. 13).
The Rock and Roll Corridor of Famer and Harlem native had an iconic voice, made well-known within the hit tune “Be My Child.”
Sadly, she was mistreated by her late husband.
