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.

Man City

Barcelona midfielder Yaya Touré has joined his brother, Kolo, at Eastlands after completing a £28m move from Nou Camp. The Ivorian, 27, is City's third signing of the summer, following David Silva and Jerome Boateng.

Portsmouth

The South Coast club have rejected a £5m double bid from Lazio for Nadir Belhadj and Kevin-Prince Boateng. The Serie A side have reportedly been told to double their offer for the duo, as the Fratton Park club prepare for their Championship campaign.

Sunderland

The Black Cats have joined Everton as favourites for the signature of Manchester City and England Under-21 defender Nedum Onuoha. The City academy graduate is surplus to requirements at Eastlands after the arrival of Jerome Boateng.

Tottenham

The club are close to completing a season-long loan deal for Spartak Moscow goalkeeper Stipe Pletikosa. The 31-year-old Croatian international, capped 81 times, has not joined Spartak on their pre-season training camp.
