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.

1 shallot, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
½ courgette, cut into small, thin pieces
Pinch of chilli flakes
Pinch of salt
Zest of ½ lemon
100g cooked and peeled brown shrimps
250g pasta (trofie, orecchiette and conchiglie work well)
1 tbsp chopped parsley
Put a large pan of salted water on to boil. Cook the pasta according to the pack instructions then drain, reserving some of the cooking water.
Heat a glug of olive oil in a frying pan and fry the shallot and garlic clove until soft.
Add the courgette, lemon zest, chilli flakes and salt; fry for 2-3 minutes more.
Stir in the brown shrimps (just to heat through, as they are already cooked).
Return the drained pasta to the pan, then stir in the shrimp and courgette mixture. Add a little more olive oil and pasta water to loosen, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
