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.

The Brazil striker Neymar has again dismissed reports he has reached a deal with Barcelona or Real Madrid, and has said he will stay with Santos at least until next year's Olympics in London.

Neymar said he felt honoured to be linked with the Spanish giants but was content to be playing in Brazil, near family and friends. "It has already been decided," he said this week. "I won't leave Santos in the next transfer window. I have not reached a deal with any club."
