Your support helps us to tell the story
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. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Cheers and a standing ovation greeted the US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, as she returned to work today after a month-long absence caused first by a stomach virus, then a fall and a concussion and finally a brief hospitalisation for a blot clot near her brain.
Some 75 State Department officials greeted Ms Clinton with a double gift – a white American football helmet emblazoned with the State Department seal, and a blue football jersey bearing the number 112 – the record-breaking number of countries she has visited since becoming Secretary of State.
