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.

Warrington have chosen to play Huddersfield in the Super League play-off semi-finals.The tie, which is a repeat of the 2009 Challenge Cup final won by the Wolves, will be played at the Halliwell Jones Stadium on Thursday.

The announcement, made by Warrington chairman Stephen Broomhead yesterday, means Wigan will meet Leeds in the second semi-final on Friday. Although Huddersfield finished top of the table – for the first time for 81 years – it was no surprise that they were chosen by the Wolves, who have already beaten them three times this year. That includes a 44-24 hammering by Tony Smith’s (left) side in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals in July.
