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.Warrington did their best to take the battle for the League Leaders' Shield into the last weekend of the regular season with a 54-6 win over Huddersfield. Joel Monaghan was the star with a hat-trick of tries, but Wigan's late win on Humberside rendered his efforts in vain.
The Catalan Dragons maintained their bid for a top-four finish with a 46-26 victory at Castleford. Damien Blanch led the way with a hat-trick for the French side.
Relief and a degree of certainty over their future clearly does not agree with the Bradford Bulls. In their first match since the purchase of the club by local businessman Omar Khan, all their recent defiant form evaporated as they were thrashed 70-6 by Hull.
Leeds got over the disappointment of their Challenge Cup final defeat with a convincing 46-12 win over Salford. Kallum Watkins ran in two tries while Salford's only tries came late from Luke Patten.
Wakefield Trinity maintained their hopes of a top eight finish with a nailbiting 22-18 win over Widnes. The scores were locked at 18-18 five mnutes from time until Danny Kirmond scored the winner. London Broncos' three-match winning streak came to a shuddering halt with a 30-0 whitewash at St Helens, Paul Wellens and Mark Flanagan scoring two tries each.
