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.

Your support makes all the difference.

BRIDGE OF FIRE: Drifted from 8-1 to 12-1 in the betting for a Ripon maiden on Monday, and was not knocked about on his debut. However, this gelding could well have won had his rider been able to find room to challenge a furlong out. After that, the gelding was not persevered with and finished fourth, only two lengths behind the winner, Far Fetched. (J W Watts)

CASTLEREA LAD: who was rested during June and July, looks ready to return to form. Made late ground, without being given a hard time, when a close-up seventh of 14 in the six-furlong race won by Lady Silk at Newmarket on Friday. (R Hollinshead)
