Beckham family feud and more: Letters to the Editor — Jan. 25, 2026

Beckham fam feud

I read The Post every day, but putting Brooklyn Beckham on Tuesday’s front page — are you kidding me (“Brooklyn burns a bridge,” Jan. 20)?

So much is going on in the world and we have to read about a spoiled child who has probably never worked a day in his life. Is this a publicity stunt to sell his hot sauce?

He and his spoiled wife need to get a life. How about doing something worthwhile like donating some time to a food bank or children in need? Who cares about Brooklyn other than Brooklyn himself?

Rand Paul’s rumor

My heart goes out to Sen. Rand Paul after reading of his nightmare with YouTube and Google (“YouTube refuses to scrub lie about me,” Jan. 20).

He’s lucky that he has a platform like The Post to tell the truth about what is being done to him on social media. I hope he pursues legal action and wins his case.

Woke psychology

I attended Brooklyn College in the late ’70s to early ’80s; at that time, it was an incredibly affordable college that had a stellar pre-med program with a required psychology course as part of the curriculum (“ ‘Psych’ out at college,” Jan. 21).

If I had been forced to take this course now, I would hope a barf bag would have been included. It’s outrageous and depressing that the woke leftists are still pushing this type of marginalizing educational agenda. Can someone please “wake up” and rescue higher education?

Tish’s Jew-hate

Amid the maelstrom of malicious antisemitic demonstrations urging “globalization of the intifada,” state Attorney General Letitia James has chosen to civilly prosecute Betar, a virtually unknown, tiny pro-Zionist organization, demanding it cease operations (“Tish Targets the Jews,” Seth Barron, PostOpinion, Jan. 21).

This should come as no surprise to students of history. Hitler demanded that Jewish communities pay fines to repair the horrendous damage inflicted upon synagogues and Jewish commercial establishments by Nazi thugs after the events of Kristallnacht.

Dems’ tax folly

Post columnist Betsy McCaughey rightfully points out the folly of both California and New York’s Democrat-led tax policies (“Spendaholic Hochul Dooms NY to Failure,” PostOpinion, Jan. 21)

It is incumbent on policymakers to understand that other conditions being equal, financial capital moves to where it gets the most efficient return — whether it is between countries, states or local banks down the street.

Reparations?

New York is willing to spend upward of $200,000 to study the possibility of reparations (“ ‘Political theater,’ ” Jan. 18).

To keep things fair, this same study should also consider the experience of Italian-Americans when they first arrived in America. They were seen as alien, inferior and unassimilable, socially ostracized and subject to economic exploitation, xenophobia and violence.

The historical memory of this hardship and prejudice remains to this day a significant part of the Italian-American experience in this country and should be addressed by this study.
