Going undercover to keep one jump ahead of the sun
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.

The three-day show-jumping event, which started on Friday, was yesterday bathed in the best British weather this year. Only northern Scotland missed the fine, sunny weather and London had the top temperature, 79F (26C).
The British capital was cool compared with Paris, where the men's final of the French Open was played in temperatures topping 100F (38C) in a match lasting nearly four hours (Report, page 32).
At Old Trafford, many empty seats signalled disappointment at England's Test match performance against Australia (Report, page 32).
Lack of wind near Eastbourne meant cancellation of the final day's North Sea Cup windsurfing.
But Nigel Mansell kept his cool to win the Milwaukee round of the IndyCar World Series (Page 31).
