In countless instances over recent years, prominent political and media figures have insisted that serious crimes by the most powerful should be overlooked— either in the name of the common good, or in the name of a warped conception of fairness according to which those with the greatest power are the most entitled to deference and understanding. In his new book, With Liberty and Justice for Some, Glenn Greenwald argues that this is a profound distortion of our nation’s constitutional commitments to equality and accountability.
