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.South Aafrican President Jacob Zuma travelled to Zimbabwe yesterday to try to end power-sharing disputes, but the prospect of elections next year looks set to hamper his mission.
President Robert Mugabe and Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, who have long been bitter rivals, agreed to share power after a disputed 2008 poll. But their unity government has been rocked by rifts over posts, and Mr Tsvangirai accuses Mr Mugabe of breaching their 2008 pact. An increasingly confident Mr Mugabe is now looking to the new elections he plans for mid-2011.
