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.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It may well be every Batman fanboy’s dream, but if you want to get your hands on one you’ll need to be a Bruce Wayne level playboy; a street legal Batmobile has gone on sale for one million dollars.
The limited edition concept car is a replica of the high tech ‘Tumbler’ Batmobile that features in Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins.
Unlike the one from the movie, this car doesn't shoot fire and rockets - It does however pack an LS1 eight cylinder engine which powers four rear wheel 44 inch super swamper tires.
On the practicality side - if that’s ever a consideration for someone driving a Batmobile - the vehicle features five drive assistant cameras, as well as GPS navigation.
Having suddenly appeared on the luxury goods website James Edition along with a short description and just two images, as of yet, no information has been provided about the manufacturer.
What it does say is: “It is a limited edition of only 5 worldwide! We have built this insane vehicle to be street legal however please understand that this is not a daily driver!”
Not one to take the kids to school in then.
