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.

A live broadcast showed backstage preparations before following Gaga onto the stage where she walked among fashion models, dramatically demonstrating the flowy fabrics of Nicola Formichetti's creations for the fashion house.
What came down the runway was not as alienesque or 'anatomic' as expected - apart from the fully tattooed Rick Genest's appearance and the occasional sculpted pointy ears of course. Rather, there were some bondage- and S&M-inspired pieces, sometimes paired with Asian elements such as the hat Gaga wore for her walk. And there were some elegantly structured, voluminous pieces that looked surprisingly wearable.
But Formichetti's biggest triumph wasn't Gaga or the music or the 'freaks' on his runway: it was Anna Wintour's smile (!) at the end of the show.
