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.

McManus breaks into Irish final

Mark Williams, of Wales, will play Scotland's Alan McManus in the final of the Irish Open today, writes Clive Everton. Williams, who lost 6-4 to John Parrott in last Sunday's final of the German Masters, beat him 6-1 in last night's semi-final. McManus, who will be appearing in his first world-ranking final since winning the Thailand Open in March 1996, overcame Malta's Tony Drago 6-3.
