Former Obama staffers launching anti-Trump site called 'Crooked Media'

Democratic operatives and Obama staffers no longer have the more than 4,000 presidential appointed jobs to transition to after President-elect Trump takes office.

Politico describes how a generation of young operatives from the Hillary Clinton campaign and failed down-ballot races are still managing their “shock and grief” from Clinton’s loss.  ...

They still will not have held a real-world jobs in their lives, though. That's a shame.
