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.

Stuck on what to spend your £40 (or more) on? Our round-up of the best Lego sets for adults has plenty of inspiration.
Earning a spot in our round-up of the best sets for adults, Lego brick-bouquet (£44.99, Lego.com) impressed our reviewer. The set from Lego’s botanical collection is aimed to encourage creativity and ease stress, with our tester saying: “The shapes and colours of the petals are beautifully realistic and look great arranged in a vase or jar at home – we had several compliments from visitors on ours.”
Launching just in time to spice up your Mother’s Day, Lego has transformed the nation’s favourite girl band into Brickheadz form. Marking the band’s 25th anniversary, our reviewer said that “each piece is instantly recognisable with Geri in her famous Union Jack dress, Mel B in leopard print, Melanie C in a tracksuit and Victoria in her trademark LBD” in the Spice Girls tribute set (£44.99, Lego.com).
And if your budget stretches, Lego’s the ideas globe (£174.99, Lego.com) is as impressive as it gets. Taking the crown in our round-up, our reviewer said: “It’s not always easy to find a Lego model that no one in the family will object to being on display, but this globe could have pride of place in any home.” They added that “standing over 40cm high, it looks fantastic and spins just as smoothly as you’d hope.”
