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.

In that streak, the team has 33 goals and has not conceded a goal in the last six games — a first under Guardiola.
Wolverhampton Wanderers avoided becoming the latest Premier League casualty only by scoring in the third minute of injury time to salvage a 2-2 draw at third-tier Shrewsbury.
Wolves, who knocked out Liverpool in the third round, rested key players for the game despite not being in genuine danger of relegation in its first season back in the Premier League.
In an all-Premier League matchup, Watford won 2-0 at Newcastle, which hasn't progressed beyond the fourth round since 2006. Brighton was taken to a replay by second-tier West Bromwich Albion after a 0-0 draw.
And after Everton were stunned by Millwall, West Ham were knocked out by AFC Wimbledon. Re-live the action:

38 min: Wimbledon 0-0 West Ham
The errors continue to arrive for the visitors, who have just not settled here at Kingsmeadow.
Angelo Ogbonna gives away a needless free-kick and it leads to yet more chaos in the West Ham box.
GOAL! Wimbledon 2-0 West Ham (Wagstaff 41')
Double trouble for West Ham, double the joy for Wimbledon.
Pedro Obiang is caught in possession in midfield and Scott Wagstaff races through and finishes cooly past Adrian.
44 min: Wimbledon 2-0 West Ham
That is terrible marking from the Hammers and they are lucky not to be punished.
Deji Oshilaja is picked out at the back post and his header across goal is just too heavy for Terell Thomas.
The answer to my question before kick-off is an overwhelming yes so far.
West Ham look absolutely shell shocked and so far off the pace.
Strikes from Kwesi Appiah and Scott Wagstaff have ensured that Wimbledon have taken full advantage as they look to take a Premier League scalp.
All for Manuel Pellegrini and West Ham to do.
46 min: Wimbledon 2-0 West Ham
Back underway at this extraordinary game at Kingsmeadow. Can West Ham rescue this? Or will Wimbledon secure a famous, famous win?
GOAL! Wimbledon 3-0 West Ham (Wagstaff 46')
This is incredible. Just 37 seconds into the half, the midfielder flicks Appiah's cross past Adrian into the corner.
Manuel Pellegrini looks dumbfounded. Absolute unbelievable scenes.
52 min: Wimbledon 3-0 West Ham
This scoreline is so astounding we didn't even have time to tell you of the TRIPLE substitution made by the West Ham manager at half time.
Ryan Fredericks, Lucas Perez and Felipe Anderson came on for Pedro Obiang, Andy Carroll and Grady Diangana, but things have only got worse
