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.Direct Action Against Drugs - thought to be a cover name used by the IRA for killing those involved in the drugs trade - claimed responsibility yesterday for the death of a Catholic man in Belfast.
In a telephone call to a local radio station a spokesman for the organisation, using a recognised codeword, said Sean Devlin was killed because he was heavily involved in the drugs trade.
Mr Devlin was gunned down in the living room of a house he was visiting at Friendly Street in the heart of the nationalist Markets area. He was shot by two masked gunmen who burst into the house and shot him several times in the head.
