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.

Eva Braun may have been with Adolf Hitler in the Berlin bunker where they both took their lives at the curtain of the European Theatre of World War II, but a piece of her remains – of all places in an antiques shop in Ohio.

Mantiques, the store in Elmore, Ohio, is listing a pair of silk panties that allegedly belonged to Ms Braun - Hitler's longtime lover - for $7,500, according to the Daily Beast. The underwear have an “EB” monogram.
