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.

Spurs are in cruise control at the moment, with Bournemouth just chasing possession relentlessly. Pochettino's men look lethal in the wide areas and they are continuing to dominate.

Alli spreads it wide to Walker, but his attempted run into the box comes to an early end due to an interception from Wilshire.
37 MINS
Kane knocks the ball onto Eriksen with a tremendous first-time touch, but the final strike is parried out for a corner kick by Boruc.
