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.

Eales feels fine
Paul Eales's target for the weekend at the FNB Players Championship was to get to 16 under par, writes Andy Farrell from Durban. Having started yesterday at five under, he made good progress. He shot a best-of-the- week 65 to get him to 204, 12 under. The only problem is that Wayne Westner has already got to that marker. The South African had a four-shot advantage overnight, and ended with it still intact on 200, after a 67. "He is playing well and he obviously likes the course," said Eales, who is two clear of Argentina's Jose Coceres in third. In the Kenya Open in Nairobi, Mike Miller, who lost his PGA European Tour card last season, is on the verge of a maiden victory after a third-round 66 established a four-stroke lead.
