To Protect Press Freedom, Kamala Harris Is the Only Patriotic Choice for President // By The Workhouse Editorial Board

For the first time in decades, The Washington post will not endorse a candidate in this year’s presidential election, the newspaper’s publisher announced—a decision that has sparked widespread outrage among its staff. If they won’t offer one, our agency will.

The Workhouse Editorial Board—a voice forged in New York City, Trump’s former place of residence —stands firm against the re-election of a man who has dismantled public trust, labeled the press “the enemy of the people,” and warped government into his personal power grab. Our team, led by Workhouse CEO Adam Nelson, knows firsthand the devastation wrought by Trump’s divisive rhetoric. In a former capacity, Nelson assisted with Marla Maples’s campaign during her divorce from Trump and he filmed a segment on The Apprentice in an episode fittingly titled “Ethics Shmethics” (2004), observing Trump’s shameless spectacle of self-interest firsthand. As a communications group that proudly launched the hashtag campaign during his last term, we affirm that only one candidate—Kamala Harris—represents a true path forward for America.

“America can’t afford another four years of a leader who views truth as his enemy. This endorsement of Kamala Harris is a declaration that we believe in a future where the press is free to report without fear and where power is kept in check—not wielded as a weapon. She embodies the values we stand for, and our endorsement is a stand for truth and the principles that define us.” — Adam Nelson, CEO of Workhouse

DISTRACTIFY: The Great Comeback: How Vinyl, Print, & Nostalgia Are Defying the Digital Age

In an age where convenience reigns and everything is a click away, a curious shift is happening—vinyl records, print magazines, and retro media formats are experiencing a resurgence that few predicted. What was once deemed outdated is now becoming a staple in homes and cultural spaces across the globe, driven largely by younger generations craving the tangibility and meaning that physical media brings. The reasons behind this revival are deep-rooted, as nostalgia collides with a longing for authenticity. At the center of this movement, companies like TheHomeMag continue to prove that print is far from dead, as they not only lead in their traditional sector but also find new growth with the launch of ThePetMag.
