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.

Midfielder Darren Pratley has confirmed that he will leave Swansea this summer after five years at the club.

The 26-year-old Londoner, who has been linked with a move to Bolton, has refused to sign a new deal and revealed he is eager for a new challenge after playing a key role in the Swans' promotion to the Premier League.

Pratley said: "It's been a difficult decision for me and my family to make because Swansea is a fantastic club with such friendly and passionate supporters."
