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.

So where does a man in want of some sartorial tips head? Reddit, of course. Specifically to the ‘male fashion advice’ forum.
One man recently asked the simple question “What's a good brand for plain t-shirts?” and was inundated with responses.
But there was one particular brand that was the clear winner, with over 700 people agreeing: Next Level T-shirts.
The T-shirts are sold on Amazon and cost just £6.37. They do come in 28 colours and 12 different sizes too.
Men in the forum voted overwhelmingly in favour of the T-shirts: “They fit slim, last forever, and are super comfy,” wrote one.
“I literally own 30 of the grey tri-blend crewneck tees. They're the best!” enthused one guy, which prompted another to reply asking “Are you Mark Zuckerberg?”
And he wasn’t the only one who admitted to owning lots of the tees: “I own about 20 of them, they all fit me perfectly still,” one man revealed, adding that he'd had most of his T-shirts for a couple of years.
On US Amazon, the T-shirt has 4.5 stars from 767 customer reviews, but on the UK version of the site, the tee has only scored 3.5 stars and four reviews.
According to the discussion, the Premium and Tri-blend seem to be the most popular versions of the T-shirt, costing around £6-8, depending on the colour.
Whilst they’re an integral part of some men’s daily wardrobes, others prefer to keep the T-shirts for exercise: “They're my go-to workout shirts during the summer because they're very light and dry quickly,” explained one guy.
Some men proclaimed they “love” the T-shirts, but a handful revealed themselves not to be fans. “Have to say I really hate these. More expensive than H&M and half the quality,” said one.
Perhaps one of the most striking things to take away from the thread is just how many opinions men have on something as simple as a plain T-shirt, and how strongly they feel about them.
