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.A former Super League player has put himself up for sale on auction site eBay in an attempt to find a new club.
Ryan McGoldrick played for Castleford Tigers , Hull FC and Salford City Reds in England between 2006 and 2013, making 150 appearances and scoring 40 tries in his seven years.
The 35-year-old is currently a free agent after signing for a club in New South Wales that later folded.
"If a really feasible option did come up and it worked out, then I will go do it," he told BBC Sport.
The listing seems to have disappeared or been removed by eBay, although the highest bid previouslt stood at £11.50.
It appeared on Tuesday and was titled '1981 antique rigby league player' who is 'well maintained' and with a 'full service history'.
"I was at home speaking to my father-in-law and he came up with the idea to put myself on eBay and let them decide where I play," he added.
"We were talking about different options and I had just found out the club I was at wasn't going ahead. This gives me a little bit of time to think and assess the options I have in front of me.
"I am really open to seeing where it goes, if there is something serious then I am happy to sign a contract.
"There have been a couple of enquiries from England too but I have told them that postage comes at the buyer's expense. They'll have to make sure they can afford to get me over there.
"I hope I am not going anywhere too cold. If one of those sides come in for me, it will have to be in the summer months. Don't expect me to train over winter!"
