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.

The Texas Rangers vowed to make the best use of home-turf advantage after being humiliated by the San Francisco Giants 9-0 in Game Two on Thursday evening to fall 2-0 behind in the best-of-seven World Series.

The Rangers dug themselves into a deep hole as their relievers unravelled in an ugly eighth inning that yielded seven runs, leaving a sombre mood in their locker room as jubilant Giants fans chanted: "Sweep, sweep, sweep."

The series now shifts to Texas for the next three games, the first of which is tonight, and third baseman Michael Young promised a Rangers revival. "There's no need for us to change anything," Young said. "We just need to produce different results."
