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.

In the North-east, lunch takes only 31 minutes, but East Anglians spend 44 minutes. The most popular dish is steak and kidney pie.
Bad Day for Imed Sejati, an Albanian tennis player at the Mediterranean Games in Bari, Italy. In the first game, his opponent served four aces, then Mr Sejati served four double faults in a row. Then he retired.
Cheap Day for python meat, as the retail price of a python dropped from about 120,000 dong (pounds 4) to 40,000 dong (pounds 1.35) in Vietnam. Pythons are bred for their skin and meat, which is pickled in rice wine for traditional medicines, but this year dealers have been affected by a large oversupply.
