Starscream actually takes a half-step back, glaring back at Megatron. As self-interested as he may be, he does still consider himself pretty loyal to Megatron; after all, it's not like any of his personal aspirations actually conflict with that loyalty. (Yet.)
"Commander Megatron is not a tyrant," Starscream says with pointed emphasis, almost through his teeth, "and if there was a 'Justice Division', I think I'd have heard of it. We've already dismantled the Senate, for the most part -- we'd be well on our way to rebuilding Cybertron if the Autobots hadn't decided to interfere."
That's a...highly simplified version of events, but Starscream doesn't feel like giving him any more ammunition -- and what does he know about Starscream's own Decepticons, anyway? Nothing that Starscream hasn't already told him, which means that technically, Starscream can claim the upper hand here. Of course he almost completely ruins this advantage by muttering, "Granted, I think we'd be done with the Autobots already if he hadn't made it so personal with their leader..."
