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.

A few weeks ago, we set the task of creating an appropriate anagram of "Darth Vader Sculpture Puzzle". Here are some of the more beguiling entries:

Vlad sure captured HRT (Helen Martin); Lecturers hard up - TV ad (R.W.Cragg, who also came up with the medicinal: Ruptured? Drs have talc); Depraved cult art rush (which C. Rumble thought neatly described the competition); VCR has pale dud turret (D.M.Howle, who also produced: Starlet carved up Hurd); Ruler had used PVC tart (Simon Pressey); Crude rat had vet slurp (Lynne Clark); Perv had cultured arts (Sandra Horn); Prude TV star had lucre (Arthur Clark); turd spurt reached lav (Jonathan White); Hard-up reds cut travel (Mrs F.M.Agassiz); V. ruptured cathedrals (John Kelly).

But the one we liked best was: "Cult art served up hard", which wins Donald Hurt of Newton Abbot a Darth Vader Sculpture Puzzle from The Really Useful Games Company.
