Three former Google employees sued the technology giant claiming they were wrongfully fired for challenging a plan to collaborate with the Trump administration’s border security agencies.

They claim that in addition to being falsely accused of leaking information about the Alphabet Inc’s unit’s plans to the media, they were also targeted because they were gay or trans.
