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.

The German soccer federation (DFB) yesterday reversed the result of a Bayern Munich victory over Eintracht Frankfurt two weeks ago to punish the reigning champions for fielding too many amateur players. A DFB panel awarded the match, which Bayern Munich had won 5-2, to Eintracht Frankfurt with a 2-0 scoreline.
Greek referees said yesterday they would boycott this weekend's matches in protest against the brutal beating of one of their colleagues by angry fans last Saturday. Eight fans stopped a taxi taking Philippos Bakas to Athens airport, dragged him out and hit him with iron bars and chains before driving off. Bakas said the eight men were AEK Athens fans, angry with a disputed penalty he awarded to Panathinaikos in the closing seconds of the Greek Cup final last Wednesday. Striker Christo Warzycha converted the penalty for a 1-0 win for Panathinaikos.
