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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Washington: The Korean evangelist Sun Myung Moon blessed the marriages of 39.6 million couples from his Unification Church, linked by satellite from 84 countries. All were dressed identically, with 36 couples reaffirming their vows, and 3.6 million marrying for the first time.

Illinois: Christina Mack, 35, was accused of aggravated battery, attempted aggravated battery and domestic battery after being found unconscious in the house she shared with her lover. After a quarrel, she had apparently greased the top of a stairway, hoping her one-legged boyfriend would slip and tumble. But she slipped on it herself.

New York: Jay Ramras, 48, from Fairbanks, Alaska, has come to New York in search of a nice Jewish girl. "Statistics brought me here," he said. There are only two single Jewish women in Mr Ramras's home town.

Norwich: Alan Schubert, 44, was ordered to pay pounds 200 compensation to his common-law wife after he cut up her clothes with a pair of scissors when she took a lover and left their home.
