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.

Cambodia's former finance minister Sam Rainsy, who along with the deposed Prince Norodom Ranariddh heads the country's opposition, returned home yesterday, calling for peace and compromise.

Sam Rainsy left Cambodia several weeks before the powerful Second Prime Minister Hun Sen toppled his former coalition partner Ranariddh in early July. He was mobbed by supporters when he arrived at Phnom Penh airport. Sam Rainsy is the most prominent opposition politician to return since Hun Sen's takeover.
