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.

It’s Avengers to the rescue in the comments section of Jeremy Renner’s first social media post since he was run over by a snowplough on Sunday.

The actor underwent two surgeries at a Nevada hospital after he was hit by a 14,000lb snowplough, which he was using to help clear neighbours’ driveways.

The Hawkeye star shared a selfie from his hospital bed Tuesday (3 January) with the caption: “Thank you all for your kind words. Im too messed up now to type. But I send love to you all.”

In the comments section were Renner’s Marvel co-stars Chris Hemsworth and Chris Pratt, who play Thor and Star-Lord in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, respectively.

“Speedy recovery buddy. Sending love your way!” Hemsworth wrote.

Meanwhile, Pratt commented: “Continued prayers your way brutha.”

Alaqua Cox, Renner’s co-star in the Disney+ Hawkeye TV series also responded with two love heart emojis.

Marvel’s directing team sent their love, too. Thor: Love and Thunder director Taika Waititi wrote: “My brother I love you [heart emoji].”

And the Russo brothers (Avengers directors) commented: “Sending all of our love, brother, and hopes for a speedy recovery.”

Other A-list well-wishers included Orlando Bloom, Kate Beckinsale and Heidi Klum.

Yesterday, the Hulk/Bruce Banner star Mark Ruffalo asked fans to send “healing goodness” to Renner.
