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.

SFA fines Lehman Brothers over Maxwell

American investment bank Lehman Brothers has been censured and fined by the Securities and Futures Authority, the industry regulator. Reports at the weekend suggested the fine, over the bank's dealings with the private companies of the late Robert Maxwell, was up to pounds 100,000 - a lower figure than fines levied on Goldman Sachs and fund manager Invesco in 1993 over their dealings with Robert Maxwell.
