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.Prime Minister David Cameron has offered his congratulations to Europe's Ryder Cup team on their "stunning" victory.
Captain Colin Montgomerie's side triumphed by the tightest of margins, 14 1/2-13 1/2, at Celtic Manor as Graeme McDowell held his nerve to beat Hunter Mahan 3&1 in the final match of the event's extra day.
And Mr Cameron said: "Congratulations to Colin Montgomerie and the Europe team on a stunning Ryder Cup victory."
It was the first time the event had ever gone beyond its regular three-day distance, due to 13 hours being lost in the Welsh rain on Friday and Sunday.
"After a stormy weekend, we will long remember the drama of the first ever Ryder Cup Monday played in the Welsh sunshine," Mr Cameron continued.
"Well done also to the crowd at Celtic Manor who more than played their part."
