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.

The Rock Wife
She had pouted by his side
In a hundred dodgy bars
They were spliced in holy deadlock
Through an archway of guitars
She emerged into the sunlight
In suspenders, veil and train
In the parish of St Charlie
The patron of cocaine
She honeymooned in Harrods
With her sisters and her Mum
While his lordship and his cronies
Turned their house into a slum
On returning with her lawyer
And a writer from Hello!
He said, "Yes, we'll keep the horses
But the leopard has to go."
Then she named her child Gandalf
And she made her last decisions
She would not stay with a maniac
Who could sleep-throw televisions.
