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.Howard Kendall signed three more players for Sheffield United yesterday, taking the total of new recruits to five in his first 16 days as Dave Bassett's successor at Bramall Lane, writes Phil Shaw.
David White, the former England striker who served under Kendall at Manchester City, became one of the First Division club's most expensive buys when he agreed to a pounds 500,000 move from Leeds. White had played three times on loan for the Blades.
Chris Short, a full-back and brother of Everton's Craig, arrived from Notts County - another of Kendall's previous clubs - with midfielder Paul Rogers going the opposite way. United receive a cash adjustment of pounds 30,000.
Kendall's other signing, the 37-year-old former England midfielder Gordon Cowans, joined from Wolves on a free transfer. The Celtic striker Andy Walker is also a pounds 250,000 target.
Birmingham have re-signed the former Barnet striker Gary Bull, whom they borrowed from Nottingham Forest last term, on loan until the end of the season. He is likely to make his debut against his cousin, Steve Bull, in Monday's derby with Wolves.
