Glenn Greenwald contends that the United States has a two-tiered judicial system, one for the “haves” and one for the “have-nots.” Mr. Greenwald presents his argument by tracing the evolution of judicial inequality, from President Richard Nixon’s pardon for the Watergate scandal to what the author deems were economic and political crimes committed during the George W. Bush administration. The author posits that both political parties and the media are culpable for creating an unequal judicial system. Glenn Greenwald presented his thoughts in conversation with political activist Noam Chomsky. They also responded to questions from members of the audience. This was a special event of the Harvard Book Store, held at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

It would be interesting to see how the both of them would view Trump in this context. Trump has increased the drone war radically. What little concern for civilian lives was left after Obama seems to have disappeared. And its not even among the bigger Trump scandals. To put it in words Chomsky would use: "It's quite, uhm... troubling if you take a look it."
