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.

Has Paxo lost his stuffing? Jeremy Paxman's Newsnight producers must be pleased with his scoops about Mr Blair's refreshingly enthusiastic attitude to our joining the euro. The curly-haired author of The English did well, and much better than some of those bland mini-me replacements the BBC tries to palm us off with in his place. But we wonder a little about the kinder, gentler style he deployed on Mr Blair. Where was the Paxman who asked the hapless Michael Howard the same question 14 times? Where was the Paxman drawl – that "y-e-e-e-es" delivered with such withering effect to any dissembling Cabinet minister? Where was the Paxman who thinks "why is this bastard lying to me?"?
