From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.If you’re still salivating over cronuts, duffins and mufgels, you’re going to need to take a seat to steady yourself, because ice-cream donuts are now a thing.
The combination called halos are said to have been created by the B Sweet Dessert Bar in Los Angeles.
To make them, a scoop of ice cream is sealed inside a glazed donut with a hot press. That means halos are warm on the outside but cold on the inside. Each donut is made fresh to order.
The donuts have been making waves on social media, with one excited Instagram user writing "omgg yes! The dream!" underneath one photo on the dessert store's Instagram.
B Sweet Dessert is also known for its bread pudding which comes in unusual flavours that change each week. Current flavours include carrot, banana chocolate, salted caramel, speculoos, red velvet, and glazed donut.
Over the past few years, bakeries have been fighting to create the next ‘it’ food. The cronut, or the croissant donut, invented by New York pasty Chef Dominique Ansel in 2013 is among the most famous.
Earlier this year, Marks and Spencer unveiled its croloaf, an oblong croissant that can be sliced and toasted.
