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.

Under a Tenner

2005 Cairanne Les Bruneau Domaine Delubac

This scented, typical Rhône blend of grenache, syrah, mourvèdre and carignan is chock full of vibrantly spicy dark berry and plum fruitiness. £9.99, buy 2 = £7.99, Majestic

Splash Out

2005 La Crema Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

Winemaker Melissa Stackhouse has conjured up a stylish California pinot noir scented with savoury raspberry and cherry fruit characters on the palate, and with just enough of a spicy oak veneer to provide excellent overall balance. £14.99, Waitrose
