FBI agents put our clients on the no-fly list to coerce them to spy on their religious community. The FBI didn’t believe either they or their friends and neighbors were involved in crime or terrorism; they just wanted to eavesdrop on the Muslim community.

I am riding my bicycle down 110th St. towards Central Park, hoping to sneak in a few laps before my 4-year old’s nap ends.
