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.Burnley earned a shock draw against Premier League leading Chelsea thanks to Ben Mee's late header.
Chelsea took an early lead through Branislav Ivanovic and looked to be cruising, piling on the pressure in the first-half.
The Blues may have had a penalty, or two, when Diego Costa was shoved over and George Boyd handled.
But Burnley rode their luck and got a break when Nemanja Matic - understandably - reacted badly to a terrible Ashley Barnes tackle.
The Serbian midfielder was sent off and Burnley believed they could get something out of the game. Barnes forced a fantastic save out of Thibaut Courtois but from the resulting corner, Mee beat Ramires to power home a header.
Chelsea remain in control at the top of the Premier League, although Jose Mourinho was furious with the referee after the game.
