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.

AN "EXOTIC LIZARD" found wandering around in a park was put in a terrapin tank where it promptly ate the terrapins.
A subsequent examination at London Zoo revealed the "lizard" was in fact a baby Caiman crocodile which could grow up to 8ft long in its wild habitat.
It was discovered by Robert Gwyther from Downham, South London, at his local park. He presented it to his friend who decided it would be a novel addition to his tank with the fatal results, said the RSPCA.
