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.

"His contribution cannot be underestimated," said Radio 1's Controller Matthew Bannister of Chris Evans, just possibly intending to say that he had contributed a lot, but succeeding in saying that he had contributed nothing. Evans must have felt like the man who found a note pinned to his door saying : "I called but you were in."

On Tuesday we asked readers for ambiguous or Freudian comments; your speed of response has been staggering. Each entry was better than the next. Is there no beginning to your talents? We just can't wait for your entries to stop. Won't anybody put you out of our misery?

There were insults from young and old, but clearly they hadn't learnt from experience. Joking apart, you will always have an empty space in our hearts. Nothing is too good for you.

Constructed out of offerings from: J R. Adams, P. Metcalfe, C and S Whittington, P Burns, J Ryland, R Gardiner and N Grewal who gets the champagnen
