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.

Day two of the Rio Olympic Games saw Team GB win their first medals as Adam Peaty secured gold in the 100m breaststroke with a dominant world record display, while Jazz Carlin won silver in the women's 400m freestyle final. The second day has also brought a blanket ban for Russia from the Paralympic Games in Rio over state-sponsored doping reports. Follow the latest here.
