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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Stoke manager Tony Pulis has completed his fourth signing of the summer after Charlton midfielder Amdy Faye joined for an undisclosed fee.

The 31-year-old Senegal international has joined the Potters on a 12-month deal after impressing during training while on a week-long trial with the club.

Faye has been handed the number 19 shirt and is available for the club's Barclays Premier League opener against Bolton at the Reebok Stadium.

Pulis told www.stokecityfc.co.uk: "He's very strong and athletic, and he has important experience at the top level we can call upon.

"I've liked the look of him in training and also liked his attitude in the few days he's been with us. I think he did well in the short time he was on the pitch in last week's friendly against Osasuna."
