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.

KIM BAILEY'S case reopens at Bow Street Magistrates' Court in Central London today. The trainer and the former Thames Valley Police officer Robert Harrington are jointly charged with conspiracy to burgle the property of Bailey's former stable jockey Norman Williamson.

Bailey, 45, was not present in court last month when the case was adjourned until today.

The 45-year-old, who trains at Old Manor Stables in Upper Lambourn, won the Grand National with Mr Frisk in 1990 and landed a rare Cheltenham Gold Cup-Champion Hurdle double with Master Oats and Alderbrook in 1995.

Harrington, a private investigator, is further accused of attempting to deceive the jockey Jamie Osborne of pounds 500.
