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.

"It was about time she hit form," said Twomey.Hamlet used to be ridden for Italy by Gianni Govoni until Williams acquired the horse two years ago and they had a grand prix victory at the 2003 Horse of the Year Show.
John Whitaker, who had the fastest time in the jump-off, would have wonoutright on Lactic 2 but for a single error.
