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.

Good Day for Hassen Charni, a Tunisian astrologer who is said to have forecast Princess Diana's death in a newspaper on New Year's Eve. His new forecasts include the death of the Pope in August 1998 (just after he reveals the third secret of Fatima) and a nuclear war breaking out on 17 July 1999.

Bad Day for Demosthenes Vergis, who had protested about Greece's Olympic bid by distributing a naked poster of himself around Athens. In the picture, his private parts were pointing at a photo of an Italian sports official. A warrant has now been issued for Vergis's arrest.
