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.a good day for:
taxi-drivers, following the bequest of Gloucestershire man John Jones of pounds 50,000 to his dog, Whisp. Mr Jones died in January aged 89. His nephew, Peter Hickman, was reported as saying: "I expect she'll start getting expensive tastes now. She'll be able to afford to go for walks in taxis."
a bad day for:
a New Zealand burglar, who gave Christchurch police their easiest arrest of the year. Fleeing from a garage after being discovered by the owner, the burglar fell into a swimming pool, then ran down the street soaking wet. And he left his wallet behind, with his name and address in it.
