Virginia mother: DOJ ‘has declared a war on parents’, threat probe is ‘unconscionable’
Virginia mom and Parents Defending Education member Asra Nomani says that she and other parents trying to have a say in their children’s education are ‘not domestic terrorists’
Virginia mother and Parents Defending Education member Asra Nomani spoke with "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday to react to the Department of Justice (DOJ) tapping the FBI to look into potential threats from parents against school board members.
