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.

Mr Rugova, now in Rome after being freed by Serbs, has twice been unofficially elected "president" by Kosovo Albanians. His party, the Democratic League of Kosovo retains support among older, more rural Albanians. But even before the war his authority had been eroded by the Kosovo Liberation Army, which has formed a government in exile without him. Some fear there could be a civil war among Albanians if they ever gain power in Kosovo, and wonder if Slobodan Milosevic aimed to sow discord by freeing Mr Rugova.
