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.

O'Leary looks for Republic involvement

David O'Leary has ruled himself out of the Republic of Ireland manager's job. The former Arsenal and Leeds defender, who won 68 international caps with the Republic, said: "I was invited to go along for an interview but I declined. I felt that there were enough people going for it. I think it is a job for an older man." But the 37-year-old O'Leary did leave the door open to involve himself in the Republic set-up. "Maybe if they appointed somebody that I liked and if they wanted me to go in and help them as a No 2, similar to England with Bryan Robson, then I could be interested."
