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.

Wolves led 1-0 from the first leg at Adams Park, but suffered a humiliating defeat in front of a 13,723 crowd, who booed Colin Lee's men off at the end. The splendidly-named Jermaine McSporran was the Buckinghamshire side's hero with two goals, after a Kevin Muscat own goal had given them the lead. Keith Ryan headed their fourth goal, while the 17-year-old Colin Larkin and Neil Emblen were on target for Wolves but could not prevent a 4-3 aggregate defeat.
Third Division Leyton Orient knocked out Swindon Town, of the First, 2-1 on aggregate after a late Dean Smith goal earned 1-1 draw at Brisbane Road.
