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.

If you're tired of looking at pictures of Donald Trump, there's a Chrome extension for that.

Make America Kittens Again is an extension you can add to your Google Chrome browser that automatically detects images of Trump on the web and changes them to photos of kittens.

While the extension doesn't work on social media sites like Facebook or Twitter, it will change the photos on news sites like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Business Insider.

There are a set number of photos in the extension's kitten portfolio, so you may see some repeat kittens. But is that such a bad thing?

Here's what the extension looks like when you add it to Chrome.

When you search "Make America Kittens Again" on the Chrome Web Store, you'll easily find the extension. All you have to do is hit the "add" button, and the extension will be enabled on your browser.

When you begin browsing, any photo of Trump will immediately change to one of kittens. Here's The Wall Street Journal's politics page, complete with some kittens taking a nap.

When you log on to The New York Times' politics page, you're greeted with several kittens. Some are sleeping; others are awake and seemingly curious about the news.

The best part about the extension is that it makes a regular news story about Trump seem a lot funnier. According to The Hill, Trump's Cabinet is made up of a litter of kittens who'd prefer to be asleep.
