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.England bowling coach David Saker has revealed he rejected an offer to become Warwickshire's new director of cricket.
Last year's County Championship Division One winners are looking for someone to replace Ashley Giles, who has taken charge of England's limited-overs sides. Australian Saker admitted he was impressed by the county's overtures but believes he still has plenty to achieve with England.
"I had talks with Warwickshire and it was certainly an attractive offer they made," Saker said.
"But it has come a little too early for me. I have unfinished business with the England team."
