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.

Your support makes all the difference.Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston is to lend his Hiesenbergian tones to a profane children's nursery rhyme.
Following Samuel L. Jackson's successful narration of "You Have to F***ing Eat", Cranston will take over for novelist Adam Mansbach's sequel "GoThe F*** To Sleep".
"This is a very funny book and my hope is that listeners will agree that I can swear with just as much panache as Samuel Jackson," Cranston said.
Here's a sample line (imagine in Walter White's creepily calm, deep voice):
"The bunnies are munching on carrots. The lambs nibble grasses and bleat. I know you’re too hungry to reason with but you have to f***ing eat."
Cranston found himself in an argument over what is suitable for children with Florida mums recently, when several launched a campaign to remove Breaking Bad figurines from Toys R' Us stores.
"Florida mom petitions against Toys 'R Us over Breaking Bad action figures." I'm so mad, I'm burning my Florida Mom action figure in protest", the actor tweeted.
"Go The F*** To Sleep" sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide, with the audio version being available on Audible from Wednesday.
