What exact due process are we looking for here? If I donate to an extremist organization, and my boss finds out, is he required to still continue to employ me?

What exact due process are we looking for here? If I donate to an extremist organization, and my boss finds out, is he required to still continue to employ me? Or can my boss only fire me if a government takes me to court?
Is my boss allowed to fire me because my job performance is poor? Or does he have to wait till the government puts me in jail for being a shitty sys admin?
I do find this idea that speech doesn't carry consequences really foreign and odd.
- ipaddr 5y agoIf your boss is firing you for your political beliefs you might have a lawsuit. Anyone who doesn't vote for the candidate Google's ceo decides will be fired?
- d_e_solomon 5y agoPolitical beliefs aren't a federally protected class; and only protected in a handful of states. So yes, you can be fired over political beliefs.
