I am not a fan of someone being fired for spouting off on twitter. I think when they express open racism, sexism, antisemitism or aggressively advocate for discrimination of political opponents and hold power over people, like professors, their employers should know.
Absolutely wrong. A public university cannot censure a faculty member for expressing opinions in public. That imposes an unconstitutional chilling effect on free speech by every other member of the university.

I didn't say 'censure.' But if a professor is boasting of discriminating against people based on skin color, gender, religion or political views and has power over people with those characteristics, the public and university should know.

Who says censure a faculty on manner of speech?
