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.James Quinn, the Northern Ireland striker, believes Windsor Park could be the launching pad for a successful World Cup qualifying campaign for his side.
With England and Wales as well as Poland, Austria and Azerbaijan due to visit, the team are making progress under Lawrie Sanchez and secured a home draw against Serbia & Montenegro on Wednesday.
Under Sanchez, Northern Ireland have won one, drawn one and lost one. They have also scored in three successive games after going 1,298 minutes without a goal. Quinn, who scored on Wednesday, said: "I think that by the time the World Cup qualifiers come around we could spring a surprise on England or Wales," he said. "They and the rest of the teams in our group certainly won't fancy coming to Windsor Park. The atmosphere is fantastic."
