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.

Graeme Dott and Stephen Maguire both recovered from two frames down to reach the last 16 of the Bank of Beijing China Open.

Dott fell 2-0 behind against the German Masters runner-up Marco Fu before bouncing back to record a 5-3 victory, with Maguire coming from behind to seal an identical win over Michael Holt, who looked to be on course for victory after taking a 3-1 lead.

Jimmy Robertson stunned Wang Yuchen to triumph 5-1 in the wild-card round, to set up a meeting with his Australian namesake Neil Robertson. Britons Jack Lisowski and Anthony McGill also came through their matches.
