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 firm favourite when it comes to fitness tracking, Garmin’s forerunner 245 smartwatch is discounted by 42 per cent right now, making it even cheaper than its Amazon Prime Day deal price.
Designed with built-in GPS, the watch measures pace and routes, while tracking your heart rate. Plus, you can even get custom training plans that adapt to help you meet your 5k, 10k or half-marathon goals, all while tracking advanced running dynamics, such as ground contact time, balance and stride length.
In our review of the similar 245 music smartwatch, our tester said: “Put simply, this lightweight watch includes pretty much everything you need as a runner.” They added: “Accurate GPS tracking means you know your distance and speed, while your heart rate is measured from your wrist, so you know how hard you’ve pushed. It will also tell you your training status and your training load, to ensure you’re not doing too much.”
