With Liberty and Justice for Some

How the Law is Used To Destroy Equality and Protect the Powerful

Glenn Greenwald,

About this book

A scathing critique of the two-tiered system of justice that has emerged in America that sanctions immunity at the top and mercilessness for everyone else.

"The most important voice to have entered the political discourse in years." —Bill Moyers

The founding principle of the United States was that the rule of law would be the great equalizer in American life, the guarantor of a common set of rules for all. But over the past four decades, this principle has been eviscerated. From Watergate to the fraud that caused the 2008 financial crisis and culminating with Obama's failure to prosecute Bush-era crimes, Glenn Greenwald lays bare the mechanisms that protect America's elite from accountability, while the politically powerless are imprisoned with greater ease and in greater numbers than in any other country in the world.

With Liberty and Justice for Some exposes a new and profoundly un-American justice system that incentivizes elite criminality, protects oligarchical political culture, and sanctions immunity at the top and unyielding mercilessness for everyone else.

"Glenn Greenwald is the American Left's most fearless political commentator. . . . H. . . is rock-ribbed principles and absolute disregard for partisan favor have made U.S. political discourse edgier, more confrontational, and much, much better." —Rachel Maddow

"The first thing I do when I turn on the computer in the morning is go to Glenn Greenwald's blog to see what he said. He is truly one of our greatest writers right now." —Michael Moore

"One of America's forty most popular and widely cited political pundits." — New York Magazine
