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.

CHARLIE BROWN. Eternally optimistic neurotic who worked for peanuts and whose girlfriend dispensed psychiatric advice at two cents a go.

JAMES BROWN. Eternally hyperactive sex machine who advised his mamma to get a brand new bag and then groove it all night long.

PA BROON. Eternally grumpy stereotypical Scottish tightwad skinflint who advised Oor Wullie to wash behind his ears. Relative of Desperate Dan, Denis the Menace and Lord Snooty.

GORDON BROWN. Eternally dour stereotypical Scottish tightwad skinflint who last week advised the Americans to get into a virtuous circle. Married to Prudence. Denies building up Oor Wurchest.
