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.

Jewish settlers will shoot Palestinian policemen if they feel threatened, their leaders warned yesterday as they announced a big new campaign against the Palestinian autonomy deal, AFP reports from Jerusalem. 'Israelis have to defend their lives if they are in danger and not obey any orders from a Palestinian policeman,' said Ron Nahman, right-wing MP and mayor of the West Bank settlement of Ariel. 'If a policeman poses a threat to the life of an Israeli citizen, you have to act as in all such cases and defend yourself by shooting him.'
