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.

A video that features foreign students praising Chinese President Xi Jinping has been released by the ruling Communist Party’s official newspaper, People’s Daily.

The three minute video answers the question we’ve always asked: ‘Who is Xi Dada?’

The video features students from a number of countries including with the best responses coming from an American, Frenchman and Korean.

The video has been released in celebration of Mr Xi’s week-long visit to the United States.

On Tuesday, he met with technology leaders such as Apple’s Tim Cook, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and Satya Nadella of Microsoft. Mr Xi used the event to stress that reaching agreement with global partners is essential for future growth.
