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.

Prep: 5 mins
Cook: 45 mins
Serves 4
300g baby button mushrooms
4 steaks (sirloin or fillet)
4 banana shallots, quartered lengthways
3 stalks thyme, leaves removed
2 tbsp tomato paste
500ml red wine
500ml beef stock
To serve
Cooked rice
Chopped parsley
Cut the steaks into 3cm pieces and place on a plate. Season well with salt and pepper.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat and cook the steak until browned, about two mins each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Add the mushrooms, onions and thyme to the pan and cook for 10 mins, stirring frequently. Turn the heat up and add the tomato paste and some salt and pepper, cook for several minutes before adding the wine, then simmer until reduced by half.
Add the stock and bring to the boil, return the cooked steak and its juices and simmer gently until the meat is cooked to your liking.
Serve with rice and plenty of chopped parsley.
