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.Lindsay Lohan has announced she is pregnant - but it was April Fool's day yesterday.
The star tweeted “It’s official. Pregnant…” which to the UK looked as if she wrote the message on 2 April at 5.35am. However, it was still 1 April on the west coast of America where the star lives.
It is thought to be an April Fool's joke aimed at her fans and her boyfriend Avi Snow, guitarist for City of the Sun.
She was photographed this weekend slumped under a table at a Brazilian nightclub.
The Mean Girls star is also due to enter rehab later this month for prescription drug and alcohol treatment.
LiLo’s potential prank is among a number of April Fools’ jokes pulled by celebrities on Twitter yesterday.
Actress Sheridan Smith tweeted she had been cast as Anastasia Steele in the forthcoming film of Fifty Shades of Grey, and Tom Daley tweeted a picture of his new micro pig.
