Legal Question in Employment Law in Virginia

Job discrimination/retaliation
I am 66 yrs old. I had retired as Director of Public Works 2+ yrs ago. I had retired due to family matters.
I applied & interviewed for the Deputy position. I was verbaly given the post by the Director & City Manager on a Thur. The next Mon the Cty Mgr told me the Mayor would not let him hire me & if he did the mayor would eliminate the position and micro manage the City. The starting sal was to be $89K.
The Dir of Pb Wks was ecstatic that I was returning to the Department as her Dpty.
As Dir I had professional disagreements with the Mayor when he was then president of the school board. After retirement the Mayor had requested that I stay on as a consultant for the City, which I still am.
The Director mentioned to me, after the postion was retracted, that she was surprised the the mayor would carry a grudge this far. The City Manager has not told me what the reason was.
My intentions were to stay on until age 70 to increase my VA Public retirement rate
