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.

La Roche-Posay effaclar purifying cleansing gel: Was £18.50, now £10, Boots.com
As a well-known French skincare brand, we were pleasantly surprised to see La Roche-Posay’s products in the Boots flash sale. The cleansing gel in question has been heralded as a hero product for those with acne-prone and oily skin, and received rave reviews in our guide to the best face cleansers. Lathering into a rich foam, our writer noted that “after consistent use over two weeks, it reduced shininess in our T-zone, and we saw less blackheads across the nose and forehead”. She added that the hefty 400ml pump bottle will last you months, making this a real steal.
