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 former United Kingdom and Masters champion looked uninterested for much of his first-round match before losing 5-1 to the methodical Scot, Chris Small. O'Sullivan, who slammed the balls about indiscriminately during the last frame and took on a number of highly ambitious pots, added: "I couldn't wait to get out of there. I am just playing terrible. I hate the game and I don't want to play any more."
