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.

Terry Venables may soon have the chance to erase one of the worst memories of Graham Taylor's ill-fated reign - England's 2-0 humiliation by the USA in Foxboro last summer. Bora Milutinovic's side are pencilled in for a Wembley visit on 17 September, replacing a planned friendly against Switzerland. One American World Cup star who certainly appears on his way to England is the flame-haired one-time hippy centre-back Alexi Lalas, poised for a move to Newcastle.
