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.

With four years under its belt, the "Rich Kids of Instagram" blog and Instagram account is still at it, curating photos of the lifestyles of the wealthy.

Although it's only June, those featured on the blog are already deep into their summertime celebrations -- complete with private jets, luxury cars, and beach vacations.

Take a look at what the "Rich Kids" are up to thus far:

Some are off to Malaysia.

Others are staying in the US, flying in private jets to Sarasota, Florida.

Helicopters are also a popular form of transportation.

Some are swinging high above the jungle.

Off the coast of California, @stevenrsachs celebrated his 24th birthday on his yacht.

Tulum, Mexico, is a popular destination this summer.

@prince.pd is Jet Skiing in the Hudson River.

Aside from traveling, shopping is also a popular activity.

So is counting money ...

... and drinking Dom Perignon.

New watches are always a must.

This is just the beginning of summer, so we'll have to wait to see where the "Rich Kids of Instagram" are off to next.
