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.

Gerry Adams is to release a book of his finest and strangest tweets.

The book, which is expected to be published by the end of January, will be called My Little Book of Tweets and will feature a selfie with a goat on the front cover, reports the Guardian.

The book will be available to buy on Sinn Féin’s bookstore website, which says the tweets included are chosen “by the man himself”, for £6.88.

Amidst the political posts promoting Sinn Féin policy and showcasing Adams at various political engagements, the 67-year-old’s Twitter page is often found to include slightly bizarre meanderings and on occasion channels his inner Gossip Girl by signing off ‘xoxo’.

Although the included tweets are not yet known, here are a roundup of some of the ones that might make the cut.

The book will also feature a few selfies. Perhaps he’s following in the footsteps of Kim Kardashian-West who released Selfish in 2015 – a collective and historical catalogue of her favourite selfies.
