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.Gay Kelleway unleashed a potentially good youngster at Salisbury yesterday in the shape of Soviet Bureau who beat Dark Moondancer by a length and a quarter for the Isle of Wight Novices Stakes under Kieren Fallon. "This is my star," Kelleway said. "He is the first horse I have ever entered for the Derby as he beat all my good horses like Russian Music at home. "He's in the Royal Lodge at Ascot next month but Kieren told me to take my time with him so I definitely won't be rushing him," she added.
Judge Derek Lever took 15 minutes to separate Harmonic Way and Inchtina after they had flashed past the post together at the end of the Sandown Maiden Stakes. Lever eventually called Harmonic Way the short-head victor.
