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.Britain’s most beloved and pastel-hued baking show is back once more, with a batch of new Great British Bake Off contestants taking a break from skipping merrily in a park to try and get Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith’s taste buds tingling.

Rahul was named Star Baker for the second week in a row, with Antony was sadly sent packing.

Jon, it's very sweet you dressed as a ballerina, but why would you choose a red hot sauce? This looks like a bloodbath.
A lot of love for Kim-Joy's space turtles. But will she win Star Baker?
Here's a twist for this week: nobody's going home this week, due to Terry's illness. But there's a strong possibility two will go home in the next episode.
