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.

The Fijian moved into first place on the money list, and also moved into noted company by earning his 12th consecutive top-10 finish. Only Jack Nicklaus has more, having established the record of 14 in 1977.
Singh started the day with birdies on the first three holes. The British pair Phillip Price and Luke Donald slipped back from joint-third overnight to a share of 17th place.
