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.

Geri Halliwell is expected to add some extra spice to The X Factor by stepping in as a guest judge.

The 37-year-old singer is understood to be standing in for pregnant Dannii Minogue at auditions in Glasgow tomorrow.

Halliwell was previously a judge on Popstars: The Rivals, which discovered X Factor judge Cheryl Cole and her Girls Aloud bandmates.

It is thought that the Spice Girl will stay for just one day of auditions but could return in the future.

Konnie Huq was yesterday confirmed as the new host of The Xtra Factor, when the series returns later in the summer.
