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.Residents of the Belgian town of Liège took part in an official memorial service yesterday, remembering the victims of last week's grenade and gun attack at a Christmas market. An official silence had been held late last week.
Five people were killed and almost 130 injured when gun collector and convicted drug dealer Nordine Amrani opened fire on shoppers last Tuesday.
The body of a woman was also found at Amrani's home soon after his arrest.
