Improve The News is a free news aggregator and news analysis site developed by a group of researchers at MIT and elsewhere to improve your access to trustworthy news. Many website algorithms push you (for ad revenue) into a filter bubble by reinforcing the narratives you impulse-click on. By understanding other people’s arguments, you understand why they do what they do – and have a better chance of persuading them. **What's establishment bias?** The establishment view is what all big parties and powers agree on, which varies between countries and over time. For example, the old establishment view that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote was successfully challenged. ITN makes it easy for you to compare the perspectives of the pro-establishment mainstream media with those of smaller establishment-critical news outlets that you won’t find in most other news aggregators. This Magazine/Community is not affiliated with Improve The News and is an unofficial repository of the information posted there.

  • The Republican National Committee (RNC) and former Pres. Donald Trump's campaign Wednesday announced they've raised $65.6M in the month of March, taking their total cash in hand to $93.1M. gop.com
  • This comes after the RNC and the Trump campaign raised $21.6M in February. The two groups merged last month after the former president became the presumptive GOP nominee for November's presidential election. Bloomberg.com
  • Because the campaign and RNC reached a joint fundraising agreement, the maximum an individual can donate to the Trump campaign has increased from $3.3K to around $800K. Trump will host a fundraiser Saturday, with per-donor goals of $250K and $814.6K per person. Associated Press (LR: 3 CP: 5)
  • Trump's fundraising agreement with the RNC over proceeds from the upcoming dinner dictates that the first $11.6K of any donations will go to the presumptive nominee's campaign ($6.6K) and Save America PAC ($5K) respectively, with the next $413K reaching the RNC. New York Times (LR: 2 CP: 5)
  • RNC Chairman Michael Whatley in a statement said Trump has "created a fundraising juggernaut," with the two groups "focused on victory." gop.com
  • Pres. Joe Biden and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) have yet to announce their fundraising total for March, but the campaign ended February with $97.5M cash in hand and announced over $25M had been raised in a single fundraiser last month. axios.com

Republican narrative:

  • Despite the deep state's best attempts to stop Trump, his campaign is only getting stronger. These fundraising statistics are staggering, and it's no surprise this comes following Trump's recent changes in the party's leadership and direction. Trump is moving closer and closer to a White House return.

Democratic narrative:

  • Biden has a clear fundraising advantage that will lead him to victory. This will allow the president to project his message further than the Trump campaign, including to disillusioned former Trump voters, and defeat a deeply divided Republican Party at the polls in November.

Nerd narrative:

  • There's a 49% chance that Trump will be elected US president in 2024, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
