Your support helps us to tell the story
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.

With a third of the Scottish League Premier Division campaign remaining, Rangers lead by a single point from Celtic. Walter Smith's champions will have Paul Gascoigne back for today's visit to Partick while Celtic, unbeaten in 19 Premier games, meet Hibernian at Parkhead.
The Celtic manager, Tommy Burns, who has Andreas Thom back after a two- match injury absence, believes long-suffering captain Paul McStay has been a different man since lifting the Scottish Cup last May. "I have seen a remarkable transformation in him as a person," Burns said as Celtic pursue their first title since 1988.
Hibs have won only once in 1996 and crashed out of the Scottish Cup against Kilmarnock last week. Joe McLaughlin makes his debut in defence after arriving from Falkirk but Steven Tweed, Gordon Hunter and Gareth Evans are injured and Darren Dods and Pat McGinlay banned.
Although Gascoigne is back after suspension for Rangers, Richard Gough might be missing at Thistle with a back problem while Gordon Durie (groin) is doubtful. The Dutch international Peter van Vossen is poised to make his full debut.
