There are several examples in the article I quoted. I can google up tons of others.
Various Christian terrorists are let go without any qualms while several Muslims have been rotting in jails without any trial or charges, or even worse, after the courts determined that there is nothing against them.
Hutaree Milita's (Christian terrorists) were all released even though they had plans to kill government / law enforcement officials.

The United States Attorney's Office stated that the Hutaree allegedly planned "to kill an unidentified member of local law enforcement and then attack the law enforcement officers who gather in Michigan for the funeral".[14][15] The press release further stated that nine had been indicted by a federal grand jury in Detroit on charges of seditious conspiracy, attempted use of weapons of mass destruction, teaching the use of explosive materials, and possessing a firearm during a crime of violence. The indictment said that the Hutaree planned to attack law enforcement vehicles during the funeral procession for the officer or officers they planned to kill, using explosively formed penetrator improvised explosive devices (which under federal law are considered "weapons of mass destruction").[15]
Compare that to the various cases in which Muslim Americans were convicted and sentenced for tens of years because of their thoughts or their writings or for uploading a video on youtube. None of that is exaggerated, really a kid was arrested for uploading a video and was facing decades in prison.
Tarek Mehanna - no violence, no crime committed except thought crimes. Sentenced for 17 years.

A pre-teen (or teen?) Canadian kid was abducted from Afghanistan and he was put in Guantanamo. If he had pleaded not guilty he would have had got a much longer sentence so he pleaded guilty. He was not on US soil when he allegedly committed that crime (if it was a crime).

His chief interrogator was Joshua Claus, who later pleaded guilty to abusing detainees to extract confessions following the in-custody death of wrongly accused Dilawar that same year.[81]
Jubair Ahmad, sentenced for uploading a youtube video and exchanging Youtube messages with a relative of a terrorist organization. The uploading of video is "material support" in the eyes of the system when the guy is a Muslim.

When Hutaree militia was being given material support (military gear, cameras, guns) which appears to be more than youtube video and involved actual weapons of mass destruction, they were all released.
