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.

The fictitious island of Panau that serves as the sandbox setting for Just Cause 2 is amagnificent creation, comprising lush beaches, snow-capped mountains, crowded cities and dense jungles. After an initial introduction to parachute-packing hero Rico Rodriguez, you’re free to explore and wreak havoc while undertaking missions, which are usually shady jobs for local militias. Combat takes the all-guns-blazing approach while Rico’s grapple hook is indispensable when traversing the island, even acting as a weapon when deployed tactically. A brash and fun shooter, if at times a little long-winded.
