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.Winter has come early for a group of pandas at San Diego Zoo in California after their enclosure was filled with snow.
The snow has been specially created and was brought into the zoo for the pandas. The treat is part of an enrichment programme to stimulate them and keep them curious about their environment.
It seems to be effective as the pandas can be seen playing in the snow and exploring it.
