Your support helps us to tell the story
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.

NARROW STREET, Limehouse, London E14
Price: £1.75m
Agent: Savills
Tel: 020-7531 2500
They say: Classic riverside warehouse, converted by award-winning architects into a stylish, comfortable home, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, a kitchen/diner and an integral garage.
We say: Spread over three floors, plus a mezzanine, this is the perfect loft property for those couples who want a family but don't want to move to the 'burbs – there's even a utility room. At more than 3,000 sq ft, it's spacious and beautifully done out.
In the pink
THATCHED COTTAGE, Kingston, South Hams, Devon
Price: £449,500
Agent: Marchand & Petit
Tel: 01548 831 163
They say: Pretty detached three-bedroom cottage with garden and adjoining paddock, situated on the edge of a coastal village in easy reach of Plymouth, sailing at Salcombe and Dartmoor National Park.
We say: Down a pretty lane, it would make an idyllic holiday cottage. It has a new kitchen/breakfast room, a snug and a living room. But with its small windows and low ceilings, it isn't the brightest place around.
Village views
FITZJOHN'S AVENUE, Hampstead, London NW3
Price: £1.15m
Agent: Chesterton
Tel: 020-7794 3311
They say: Triple aspect second-floor flat located in the heart of the village, with the added advantage of a garage. Situated on the second floor, there are three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two reception rooms.
We say: Hampstead is staggeringly expensive, but the living space is huge, the third bedroom would make a useful study and you shouldn't moan about the lack of outside space when you're this close to the Heath.
Country casual
HAWKLEY FARM HOUSE, Eastcombe, Gloucestershire
Price: £685,000
Agent: Jackson-Stops & Staff
Tel: 01285 653 334
They say: Located in the wooded valleys of the Cotswolds, this charming 17th-century house has four bedrooms, two receptions, outbuildings, a delightful garden and spacious driveway.
We say: This classic country cottage has lapsed planning permission to extend and is situated in a quiet location 13 miles from Cheltenham (which now has a Waitrose – something that most estate agents feel is a selling point).
Sur la mer
THE FRENCH APARTMENTS, Brighton, Sussex
Price: £515,000
Agent: Winkworth
Tel: 01273 320 300
They say: Three-bedroom apartment set within this former convalescent home. Set back from the Marine Parade, it has recently been converted and offers direct views of the sea.
We say: There are two terraces and it's well laid out inside.
Room to manoeuvre
ST JAMES, Toddington, Bedfordshire
Price: £845,000
Agent: Jackson-Stops & Staff
Tel: 01525 290 641
They say: Imposing four-bedroom property with four reception rooms, kitchen diner, and a professionally designed garden, located within walking distance of the village green.
We say: There's probably as much space as you will ever need, and you could create an en suite for bedroom two, although oddly, the master bedroom is the furthest from any of the three bathrooms. One reception is currently used as a billiard room.
