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.Two men were injured in separate paramilitary-style beatings in Northern Ireland last night.
A 20-year-old was treated for leg and other injuries after being attacked at home in Coleraine, Co Londonderry, by masked men with clubs. They then told him to get out of the area, said the RUC. Earlier, an 18-year-old was beaten with hammers by two men outside his home in Antrim. He was treated for head injuries.
