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.

Sir: Whilst Nato has been bombing Serbian military targets,the Serb military and police have been rounding up Albanians in towns in Kosovo and spiriting them away. Yet it was our stated objective to protect the people of Kosovo. You cannot save people without putting humanitarian forces on the ground.

So we have lost. What now? I suspect that we will carry on bombing until the pygmies that we call our leaders tell us what a glorious victory we have achieved. Tell that to the people of Kosovo.
