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.

The "NowPlaying" hashtag continues its stint at the top of Twitter's most talked about topics list on March 24.

The music recommendation term is followed by "#TLS" as people retweet quotes from @TheLoveStories account.

In third place is the meme "#verybadsituation." Twitter users are tweeting about some bad situations that they have got themselves into or situations they hope they never find themselves in.

"Very bad situation[s]" that Twitter users are describing include: "Speaking to a person you barely know only to have a burp accidentally come out mid-sentence," "Just got your man's name tattooed to later find out that he's cheating" and "being robbed at gun point with no money on you."

Apple's iPad has bounced back into Twitter's trending topics after a few weeks' absence. People are mostly retweeting iPad-related headlines from newspapers and blogs or talking about how much they want to own the "magical" device.
