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.

Sneaky HBO! It said Game of Thrones filming would not be returning to Croatia earlier in the year (the bulk is being filmed in Spain and Northern Ireland), but cast and crew have this week been spotted shooting in Dubrovnik.

Lena Headey was seen filming new Cersei Lannister scenes at the spot where Myrcella was sent off to Dorne, apparently pensive and wondering what has become of her daughter.

Back in fine robes and with her hair growing back, Cersei looks very different to when we last saw her - naked, shaven and covered in mud and blood as she was whipped through the streets of King’s Landing as part of a walk of atonement sanctioned by the High Sparrow.
