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.

Former Arsenal and Denmark midfielder John Jensen has been appointed assistant to Steve Kean at Blackburn Rovers.

The 45-year-old, who spent four years at Highbury and won the Uefa Cup Winners' Cup in 1994, has agreed to work alongside Kean initially until the end of the season.

"John has a wealth of experience, both here and abroad," Kean said. "He is very focused on the development of players.

"His views and philosophies on football dovetail with mine and he has shown himself to be a very loyal assistant. I am delighted to welcome him aboard."
