After having an office 10 years, she placed my desk in the hall. They have created a Hostile work environment for me.

Can you win relief for this discharge? While no attorney can read the future and ethical rules require that we not gurantee any certain outcome, I can outline briefly what questions we might ask you to get started:
(1) What specific agency, role, and committees?
(2) Relatedly, what were your applicable employment/performance/separation policies, and what language was contained in any/all employment contract(s), performance reviews, and separation documentation?
(3) Who has come forward to corroborate your story; or who has come forward to corroborate their story?
So, get started by gathering these documents, and make a quick list of dates and events. Why? For any attorney, this will be key to effectively reviewing your case and, if relief may be possible, to efficiently representing your concerns.
Best wishes, and be sure to begin applying for new employment opportunities for peace of mind, income security, and to ensure that you can demonstrate in any legal action that you affirmatively had sought to mitigate any losses suffered.
