So that's the way Alito blows

On the docket yesterday--to what extent do corporations have the right to retaliate against employees who file discrimination claims? Short of firing, of course--we all know you can't do that.

But in an 8-1 decision, Alito was the only justice who suggested that businesses could retain the right to take lesser retaliatory action (suspension pending investigation, job transfers, etc) in response. Can't speak to the details of the case, but it's interesting...looks like the left was right about this guy (any puns you can find in there intended)
