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.

A design classic - distinct, clean and immediately identifiable thanks to its signature red seconds hand.
The Mondaine Swiss railways watch is renowned for its heritage and strong identity. It offers arguably the most recognisable face of Swiss timekeeping, and like its luxury counterparts always stays true to the core design that it is famous for. In 1944, Hans Hilfiker, a Swiss engineer and designer and employee of the Federal Swiss Railways, created the clock that has become known as the Official Swiss Railways Clock. It has become an icon of 20th century design, thanks to its simplicity and distinctiveness.
This watch faithfully replicates the original Swiss railways clock that keeps time at over 3,000 railway station platforms across Switzerland, and is revered for its iconic design across the world.
