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.The Duke of Edinburgh appeared in good spirits yesterday in his first major public engagement since leaving hospital, where he was treated for a bladder infection.
He joined thousands of well-wishers to celebrate the Queen's official birthday at the Trooping the Colour parade. The royal couple arrived in a glass coach for the military spectacle, rather than in Queen Victoria's 1842 ivory-mounted phaeton, due to the "unpredictable" weather. The Queen turned 86 on 21 April, but yesterday's ceremony marked her official birthday, always in June.
