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.Birmingham have announced the signing of Chile international Jean Beausejour on a three-year deal.
On a busy day for Blues, the winger joined Alex McLeish's side for an undisclosed fee from Club America in Mexico.
Beausejour joined defender Martin Jiranek and midfielder Alexander Hleb in arriving at the club today.
Beausejour, 26, is an exciting left-sided attacker who plays primarily on the left but also up front and had an impressive World Cup campaign.
McLeish told bcfc.com: "Beausejour is an excellent, left-sided midfielder who had a tremendous World Cup with Chile - he was their star player against Spain - and also played very well in a pre-season friendly against Manchester City recently.
"He has been on our list of targets for a long time because he is strong and quick with the ability to beat his man and get crosses in."
