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.An Austrian museum says it is selling a prized Egon Schiele painting to cover the cost of another of the painter's works.
The Leopold Museum says proceeds of the 1914 work Houses with colourful laundry (Suburb II) will pay the $19m (£11.5m) loan it took to recover Portrait of Wally. US authorities had refused to return the work after it was exhibited in 1998 in New York because descendants of a Jewish woman said the Nazis had seized it from her. The settlement called for the Leopold to pay for the painting.
