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.

Are you a fan of Kevin Spacey? Respiration? Then Craigslist has just the auction for you, a jar allegedly containing the House of Cards actor's breath.

The Canadian seller claims he worked with Spacey on the set of American Beauty, where they asked him to blow in a jar as a present for his mother.

"She was a huge Kevin Spacey fan before she passed away," they wrote in the description. "I think because he resembled her first husband that loved woodwork," (though I'm not sure why the woodwork bit was relevant).

"I don't know if Kevin Spacey knows anything about dovetail joints or how to work an auger, but apparently he likes breathing into jars"

"Anyway, this is real, it's his actual breath in there," they added.

The seller also noted that he and Spacey had just eaten chicken pasta when the jar breathing took place, adding a frisson of disgustingness to the auction.

The actor's breath comes in a super hip Mason jar, and is now under offer.
