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.

Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet: Was £159.99, now £89.99, Amazon.co.uk

Thanks to its 10.1in screen, it’s easily “the biggest of any Amazon tablet and the highest resolution”, which makes “it the best Amazon tablet for video playback”, wrote The Independent’s technology critic, David Phelan, in his review of the best tablets.

“It’s a sleek and effective machine, with plenty of power and strong battery life,” he added. What’s more, Phelan noted that it’s easily “the best-value full-size tablet” and there are more than half a million apps you can download.

At £159.99 it’s good value, but now, with nearly 50 per cent off, it really is a no-brainer. Should you want a different colour, it’s available in black, blue, lavender and olive.
