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.

Their revenge victory over Liverpool in 2007 was the seventh time the club had lifted football’s most glittering club prize. Of the starting XI on that May night, two make it into the Dream Team to play alongside Milan legends with enough silverware between them to pay Sir Fred Goodwin’s pension for at least the next few years.
Controversially, Giovanni Lodetti misses out on the holding midfielder’s role; there’s no room for Jose Altafini upfront; and Filippo Galli and Alessandro Nesta are deemed surplus to requirements at the back.
Do you agree with selection and how would they fare up against the Real Madrid and Liverpool Dream Teams of weeks one and two?
