You had one year to bring a discrimination claim on the firing, that time has passed. IF you can PROVE refusal to hire was due to illegal discrimination or retaliation under the Civil Rights statutes.because of race, age sex, etc., you could file a claim on that. Speculation is not proof. Unfairness and personality, politics is not discrimination.
