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.

White
1999 Trulli Chardonnay, Salento, £4.49, selected outlets of Somerfield, Co-op, Oddbins, Bottoms Up, Wine Rack
A silver medallist and one of three white wines of the year, this lightly oaked, peachy Italian chardonnay made by Aussie Master of Wine Kym Milne slips down dangerously easily. Drink on its own or with fish or chicken.
Red
1997 Santa Rita Triple C, Maipo Valley, Chile, £10.99, Majestic Wine Warehouses
No shy and retiring red, this blend of cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and Chile's own carmenere grapes (hence Triple C) is robust blackcurrant with a hint of mintiness. It's unfiltered, so needs decanting an hour before drinking.
