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.

A MAN was shot in the head and chest by a gunman on a motorcycle in central London last night. Two men drove up to him and one fired with what is believed to have been a hand gun. The middle-aged man, who has not been named, underwent surgery at the National Hospital's brain specialist unit for a bullet in the temple. Later a boy, 15, was shot dead in the queue at a food takeaway in Moss Side, Manchester.
