The Regressive Evangelism of America Part 4: God’s Plan #Blessed
How did a religion built on charity, humility, and service become a political engine for greed, inequality, and conmen?In Part 4 of The Regressive Evangelism of America, we trace the rise of the Prosperity Gospel—from postwar revival tents and televangelism to self-help culture, multi-level marketing schemes, and today’s far-right governing agenda.

The Costs of Being in the Majority
In this episode, Matt breaks down why Virginia Democrats swept the 2025 elections — and why winning was the easy part. Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger and Democrats up and down the ballot focused relentlessly on affordability, housing, healthcare, and working-class economics. Voters rewarded that clarity, rejecting culture-war politics and the chaos of Trump-era cuts that hurt federal workers, contractors, and families across the Commonwealth.But just days after the election, Senate Democrats — including Tim Kaine — struck a deal to end the shutdown without securing ACA subsidies, leaving millions at risk of higher premiums. That cave-in makes one thing clear: the real f...

Gambling with Our Futures
This week on By the Ballot, Matt digs into the fast-growing gambling crisis reshaping Virginia—from gas-station “skill” machines and new casino proposals to the explosion of digital betting apps targeting young adults.We break down how these industries promise economic growth but overwhelmingly extract wealth from low-income communities, increase crime and addiction, and leave taxpayers holding the bag. From Atlantic City’s failed revival to Virginia’s own debates in Richmond and Roanoke, the pattern is clear: the house always wins—unless lawmakers step in.Matt also explores how platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket blur the lin...

A Fake Debate, A Real Crisis
A Virginia statewide candidate just debated an AI-generated version of his opponent — and it might be the clearest sign yet that American democracy is not prepared for the age of deepfakes.In this episode of By the Ballot, Matt Royer breaks down how artificial intelligence is reshaping political communication faster than the law can respond.
