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.

Under a fiver: 2003 Tesco Finest Chilean Sauvignon Blanc, £4.99, Tesco
No one does good-value sauvignon quite like Chile, and this crisp, nettley blend of grapes from Curico and the cool climate region of Limari is no exception. An ideal summer's day sipper or a match for prawn cocktail and grilled white fish.
Under a tenner: 2003 Carmen Winemakers Reserve Chardonnay, Casablanca, Chile, £8.99, Waitrose
Another exceptional Chilean white that makes the most of its origins in a cool climate. This fresh, peachy dry white, with subtle flavours and nutty and vanilla notes, benefits from fermentation in French oak.

A cracking southern white burgundy from a talented Mâconnais grower who amalgamates grapes from old vines in the Vers Pouilly, Vignes Blanches and Les Champs vineyards of Fuissé to produce a stylish, modern, intense dry white.
