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.Attentions will turn to the Lagoa Stadium on day six at the Rio Olympic Games where, weather permitting, the rowing finals will get underway in the form of the rescheduled men's quadruple sculls final as Team GB go up against Australia. Following that, Katherine Grainger and Victoria Thornley compete in the women's double sculls final.
David Florence gets a shot at redemption after his mistake-laden run in the canoe slalom final as he joins forces with Richard Hounslow to compete in the C2 slalom, and the women's all-around gymnastics final begins later tonight where the red-hot favourite is America's Simone Biles.
There's also more action in the pool in the early hours of the morning where Michael Phelps and US teammate Ryan Lochte could lock horns in the 200m individual medley.
Both Andy Murray and Johanna Konta are in tennis singles action after Wednesday’s card was completely washed out by rain, before Konta joins forces with Jamie Murray for the mixed doubles campaign.
Finally, the four-day golf event gets underway as the sport makes its return to the Olympics, and despite the likes of Jason Day, Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson all withdrawing, there are still high hopes for a successful event with Justin Rose and Danny Willett going for Team GB.
