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.

Your support makes all the difference.Ubisoft has released a story trailer introducing its Assassin’s Creed 3 spin-off, Liberation, due to launch exclusively on Sony’s PS Vita.
Set in 1765, Liberation follows events occurring in Louisiana as Spanish forces plan to take control of the south amidst the confusion caused by the beginnings of the American Revolution in the north (which is more the subject matter of Assassin’s Creed 3).
Just to show that girls can be just as deadly as boys Liberation introduces Aveline de Grandpré into the mix, a female assassin of French and African lineage who, like a superhero from a bygone era, poses as a slave to quell suspicions, before donning her assassin’s outfit when the need for bloody vengeance arises.
As befitting a game set in the deep south expect to traverse plenty of swamps, apparently even explore Mayan ruins and vie with voodoo – who knows, perhaps even Guybrush Threepwood might make an appearance.
Impressively the game sports similar advances in animation as seen in its big brother and makes use of the PS Vita’s touchscreen, motion sensor and built-in camera, as Aveline chains slow-motion kills, goes pickpocketing and, um, paddles her canoe according to the official press release.
Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation will be available on 31st October.
