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.

45+2 mins: GOAL! CRYSTAL PALACE 0 MANCHESTER UNITED 1:
There was one minute of stoppage time signalled at Selhurst Park, but, in the second minute added on, Paul Pogba had broken the deadlock. Juan Mata curled a free-kick into the penalty area, Zlatan Ibrahimovic bundled the ball on, and Pogba - marginally offside perhaps - slotted past Wayne Hennessey from close range. It hasn't been pretty, but United won't care.
HALF-TIME - MANCHESTER CITY 1 WATFORD 0:
Manchester City go in a goal to the good at the break but it's not all positive for Pep Guardiola. A minute before the break, İlkay Gundogan had to depart injured to be replaced by Fernando.
SECOND HALF KICK-OFF: As the eight o'clock games take a break for half-time, the quarter to eight ones are back underway. Liverpool, Chelsea and West Ham all lead, but each by just a single goal. All. To. Play. For.
60 mins: GOAL! MIDDLESBROUGH 0 LIVERPOOL 2:
Five in five for Divock Origi! Flowing one-touch football cut the Middlesbrough midfield and defence to pieces, and when the goalscorer of the first, Adam Lallana, squared a low cross into the middle, the in-form Belgian striker slotted past Victor Valdes.
