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.

Iggy Azalea has slammed a person who she says sent her semen in the mail.

The Australian rapper, 28, wrote in a tweet on Thursday (14 March): “Someone sent a vile [sic] of semen in the mail and the office assistant had to unknowingly open the package.

“I– Who– FBI!!!”

She included a sick emoji towards the end of the message.

The tweet appears to have now been deleted, but screenshots indicate that she then added: “We have your DNA! Idiot. Hope you like the sex offenders registry.”

Azalea’s social media posts came on the same day she released a new song titled “Sally Walker”.

Her next album, In My Defense, is expected to follow later this year.

It will be the first record released by Azalea since she left her previous label, Island Records, last year.

The rapper has since signed a multi-year agreement with Empire Distribution, announcing in a statement at the time: “The ability to have control of my own artistic future is a long awaited and monumental change in my life.

“I genuinely feel I am in the best position to achieve my creative ambitions.”
