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.Tottenham Hotspur will not welcome the news that London rivals Chelsea have entered the race for their top target.
According to the Daily Express the Blues are looking at England Under-21 striker Saido Berahino, who was close to joining Spurs in the summer.
Berahino has barely been in Tony Pulis' plans this season, the West Bromwich Albion manager not impressed with the 22-year-old's attitude.
The striker is valued at around £20m and Chelsea, like Spurs with Harry Kane, see him as excellent cover and competition for main man Diego Costa.
One player who may be staying at White Hart Lane this month is Andros Townsend.
The winger is clearly not part of Mauricio Pochettino's first-team plans but chairman Daniel Levy will not allow him to leave on loan.
The Daily Mail report that Levy is asking for the frankly ridiculous price of £14m. Watford and West Brom have been linked.
Townsend, 24, has been a favourite of England manager Roy Hodgson, but is unlikey to be in the Euro 2016 squad if he's not playing.
Sunderland may terminate the loan deal of American right-back DeAndre Yedlin six months early.
The 22-year-old is on a season-long deal at the Stadium of Light, but the South Shields Gazette report that he has not done enough to impress Sam Allardyce.
