President-elect Donald Trump has nominated a man for secretary of Housing and Urban Development who thinks Islam isnt a religion and has argued that theres a covert Muslim plot to destroy the U.S. from within.

Its concerning that Ben Carson is set to fill a seat in Trumps Cabinet, a Muslim civil liberties group said Monday.

Based on his past Islamophobic statements and policy positions, all Americans should be very concerned on how Dr. Carson would treat Muslim HUD employees or Muslims seeking agency services, Robert McCaw, government affairs director at the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said in a statement.
