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.

Club captain Antolin Alcaraz has issued an apology for the spitting incident that has landed him a three-match ban.

The Paraguay international was caught on camera spitting at Wolves' Richard Stearman during last weekend's 3-1 defeat at Molineux. "I would like to apologise for my actions to anyone connected to our club," said Alcaraz. "I am hurting now because I cannot help my team-mates in the next three games."
