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.

Amid all the speculation over who should replace George Graham as Leeds United manager, I find it peculiar that one name has not been mentioned. Already a winner of one of this season's "manager of the month" awards, he has made an excellent start to his career in management and his team have quickly established themselves as promotion favourites.
So why don't Leeds make their move for the manager of Brentford? Could it be that they fear the chairman and owner of Brentford (Mr Ron Noades) might refuse them permission to speak to their manager (Mr Ron Noades)? Or maybe Mr Noades (owner) might refuse to inform Mr Noades (manager) of the approach. Even worse, he might insist that Leeds pay him compensation before he allows them to speak to himself, if you see what I mean.
