Three former aides to President Barack Obama have launched a new political website called Crooked Media in opposition to Donald Trump.
"Now, more than ever, we need a better conversation about politics in this country," the website notes. "Trump's victory is a reflection of what's decayed all around us — in our political parties, our government, our media, our democratic institutions, and our culture."
The three one-time Obama staffers are identified by Time magazine as Tommy Vietor, Jon Favreau and Jon Lovett, who served as spokespeople and speechwriters for Obama.
"We're not journalists, we're not unbiased, we're not always serious and we're certainly not always right," they say on their website.
"If there's one thing we've learned from 2016, it's that there are no experts with all the answers. There is no secret plan. And there is no hero coming to save us.
"For our part, we're launching Crooked Media — a place to talk about politics that informs, entertains, and inspires action."
