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.Bombs striking Shia neighbourhoods, security forces and other targets across Iraq killed at least 26 people yesterday.
It was the latest co-ordinated attacks across the country by insurgents, apparently to rekindle sectarian conflict and undermine confidence in the government.
The deadliest attack came in Taji, just north of Baghdad, where three explosive-rigged cars went off within minutes of each other. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the violence, but car bombs are a hallmark of al-Qa'ida in Iraq.
