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.

Ahead of the match at Anfield, we take a look at how the sides' strikers Mario Balotelli and Diego Costa compare.
Seven months on since Gerrard’s slip, which all but cost Liverpool the title, these two meet again at Anfield.
Brendan Rodgers rested many of his first team regular’s midweek against Real Madrid, in order to have a refreshed, strong team against Chelsea. Whether that was a defeatist attitude or not remains to be seen, and despite losing 1-0, many of the fringe players will have given Rodgers something to think about. Alberto Moreno and Lazar Markovic in particular.
Chelsea seem to have very few problems compared to Liverpool, still unbeaten in every competition, Jose Mourinho’s men look a real force. After drawing with Manchester United two weekends previous his side have gone on to brush aside QPR and draw with Maribor on Wednesday. This could easily have been a win if it weren’t for an Eden Hazard penalty miss.
