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.

According to Trivago, the average rate at a five-star hotel in the top 50 European cities is £165 (€189). However, the site has compiled ten destinations where guests can enjoy the trappings of five-star luxury for half that price.
Three of the ten hotels are in Spain, located in Barcelona, Alicante and Marbella. Another three are in Eastern Europe - Warsaw, Poland, Tallinn, Estonia and Dubrovnik, Croatia all make an appearance; hotels in Germany, Finland and the Greek and Portuguese islands make up the remainder of the list.
Chain hotels make up a surprisingly high 50 percent of the offers, with Radisson, Hilton, Swissotel, Kempinski and Vincci all appearing.
