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.

Seasonal "how to" videos once again dominate the Videojug top ten, with "how to make a Christmas tree bauble" remaining at the top of the charts.
Magic tricks for the festive season are growing in popularity as "how to make a cup float in mid air" climbs four places, but it looks like Videojug users have got the hang of folding their clothes as "how to fold a T-shirt" drops down the rankings.
Re-entering the charts this week is the seasonally appropriate "troubleshooting: when you have a cold radiator"; the video gives advice and instructions on how to fix your heating and ensure you stay warm over the winter period.
Amongst the new entries this week are "how to make a ball of flowers with an oasis," which guides viewers through the trickier parts of flower arranging, and "what to do if you catch your parents having sex." The latter tongue in cheek video, done in the style of Hannibal Lecter, includes the following tips: use earplugs, strike up a conversation, take pictures or provide a running commentary on the action.
