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.Portsmouth have failed to agree a deal for Gary McAllister to join them as assistant manager.
The former Scotland midfielder held talks over the position - vacant since Brian Kidd's summer departure for Manchester City - this morning.
But no agreement was reached, leaving Pompey still searching for a No 2 to boss Paul Hart.
Hart told Portsmouth paper The News: "We couldn't agree anything.
"He was the man I wanted so it's disappointing."
Former Leeds and Coventry manager McAllister turned down a part-time job as assistant to Scotland national team coach George Burley, preferring to instead seek a role with a Premier League club.
The 44-year-old, who represented the Whites and the Sky Blues along with Liverpool in a distinguished playing career, had confirmed to The News this morning he was "coming down for a chat" and hinted that "things might become a bit clearer soon".
Pompey have lost all of their opening seven games of the season - a Premier League record.
