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.

Too Hot to Handle is returning to Netflix this week, having been renewed for a second season.

The first eight-episode series was inspired by the classic Seinfeld episode “The Contest”, and saw contestants forced to abstain from sexual contact for weeks in order to win a prize kitty of up to $100,000 (£73,000).

The show went down well with viewers, who lauded its “trashy” premise and compared it favourably to Love Island.

Too Hot to Handle season two is set to be released on the streaming service starting on Tuesday (23 June), following the conclusion of popular reality series The Circle.

Netflix data showed the first series managed to reel in 51 million views last year.

One of the show’s stars was recently fined nearly £3,000 for being abusive to staff on a BA flight and refusing to wear a mask.

Two other of the show’s stars were also arrested for their behaviour on the flight, which was transporting the stars back to the UK from the Caribbean, where they had been filming the dating show.
