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.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Three cheers for John Pilger and your newspaper for not being afraid to expose the true consequences of American foreign policy around the globe. If killing the innocent is promoting freedom and democracy perhaps we ought to look more closely at the definitions of words. As for our "friends", who needs friends who use armed force against any country which is not prepared to act as a poodle? Those of us who were in the armed forces during the Second World War were told we were fighting against tyranny. Who are the tyrants now?
